I purchased a 2023 for my son and had the same problems with it being lean from the factory. I went a little crazy and drilled out the welch plug and got to the D-shaped fuel screw. It was glued or something in also, so I very carefully drilled and easy-outed the fuel screw. I ordered a Shindy rebuild kit which came with a normal flat head fuel screw. The jetting is still lean so I need to get new jets, but I was at least able to get it adjusted to where it will start easily and idle. Thanks for the video, just wish I would have seen it about a month ago.

Great vid. Picked up mine yesterday, lean as hell and can't adjust A/F mixture. Mechanic at dealer even called kawasaki about it before I picked it up. I got it home and very carefully adjusted idle once it was all warmed up and got it to run without hanging revs while also idling without stalling but it's super lean and cold blooded. Will probably just end up swapping carb. I can tell it's going to be a fun bike though just riding around the yard.

About a month after I got my kLX I put the 12t front sprocket on. It accelerates like a beast and the throttle is super snappy with the higher Gearing ratio. My only gripe is I loss a little bit of my top end, but I'm about to fix that and order a 49t rear sprocket to put my gearing ratio down to 4.08 which will give me my top end back without loosing all the acceleration gained (I'm at 4.17 currently gear ratio right now, which was a pretty good jump from the stock 3.57 ratio.) Also if you're looking for sprockets that are very reliable and well made I recommend JT Sprockets, Renthal (If you wanna spend that much). And Bikemaster.

Should’ve got a smart carb I know they’re expensive but they weren’t great. Me and my son put one on a 110. Klx one we are fixing up turned it into a 143. It has a lot of power now.
