KX500 AF Running like a 200

<< < (15/15)

RKPerformance:
Float height is good.  Put in a 168M, 55Pilot and moved the needle to the #3 slot on the stock needle.  1.5turns on air screw. Temp is about 55 out.  Bike seemed to pull wheelies easier in 1-2-3.  Roll on power was not fully there and it just seemed a little more burbly.  I think the #2 position on needle will work alot better.  I also think the bigger main helped, deff seemed to have more grunt once it wound up.  Bike idled better with the 55 pilot.  Think i found another issue tho, my throttle cable seems to be binding because when i turn the bars full right the bike revvs up due to the cable stretching. Overall tho i would say it improved power over the last setting I ad, but by no means is it dialed :|

RKPerformance:
Is 150 psi compression good on a cold motor?  Thats wat I got, not sure if this is why it seems down on power compared to my cr???
