[QUOTE="fatherturtle, post: 924721, member: 50240"] Be carefull on your blips durring start up. These bikes do have electronic power jets to inject more fuel into your engine and there is timing changes durring certain rpms. If you have a cold bike and you run too many rpm's durring start up you will activate the electronics and foul a plug. Just last night I saw a guy at the track warming up his bike by grabbing a hand full of throttle over and over again. That bike sounded so terrible. I felt sorry for the bike I wanted to walk over to the owner and punch him in his cake hole and say that's for you being a idiot. I don't blip or anything on my bike anymore. One kick it starts. Turn choke on long enough to start. As soon as fires turn off choke. Increase rpm just above idle. If you listen to how your engine is acting you can tell it's lean or rich. Some times durring start up I have to pull a little choke to get it running a little rich again. When radiators are warmed up take off. Then I do a sighting lap and gradually give the bike more gas untill it is running clean and crisp. I did have simular issues like you on my 03 kx and my problem was startup and pilot screw being too rich. From the factory the screw was out 3 turns. Now I am 1 1/2 witch I believe is standard. I agree with DanAKAL his testing procedures are how I would do it. Good luck [/QUOTE]
