$200 Kawasaki Dirt Bike - THE COMEBACK

I've been trying to chase down the cause of the rich running condition of the KDX200 without any positive improvement. Until this.

    This is honestly one of the best channels I have come across recently. Down to earth, honest bike enthusiasts! I am busy rebuilding a bike at the moment (1989 TDR180 in MX Trim), and have learnt A LOT about non-starters and where to start, what to look for, as well as how to do basic diagnostics for common issues. Things you'd never think of checking! Thanks guys!

I don't know if it was the mistakes or the sense of humor that kept the project going and got us to finish fixing the furnace and so I have heat when my new born daughter comes home from the hospital tomorrow(Christmas). Thanks!!!!

    To do all that and still have it run like an asthmatic 50 would be a waste of time imo especially as they want to use it now; the bearings in that engine were better anyway. We also couldn't feel quite how cold it was lol...

    John Chafin, yep that's the way i think, but if it was my bike and there is a chance to replace the basic stuff while the engine is bare, i would do it. Because later on it will cause problems just when you need the machine the most. That's sods law lol.

    When I rode 2 stroke mopeds back in the day we would take the exhaust off, go to a sandpit or similar, poor gasoline in the exhaust and ignited it. It would usually burn the exhaust clean of oil residue. Another method was putting an old clutch cable in a drill and rotate that cable like a mad man inside the exhaust to get rid off some of the coal cake on the inside.

    I've never heard of a carb wearing out aside from scoring from dirt and things like that, but I guess with enough hours anything is possible. I bet new jets, float needle, and maybe float (if you think it's bad) would freshen it up though. And with how little that main seal was leaking, once everything is up to temp and expanded/softened it probably seals just fine. Been loving this series!
