[QUOTE="canyncarvr, post: 645384, member: 16552"] So some searches on this site for general information that will help you get what's available out of the 220. Whether that is what you're after remains to be seen. Don't make the mistake of trying to make a silk purse out of a sow's ear (literally translated). The 220 is a mild configured engine regarding port timing and carburetion. It's not going to be a 125.....[b]ever![/b]. It can be made to run better than it does in stock trim, but [b]it's not going to be a 125.[/b] Yes, I understand you said [b]ride it like..[/b], as opposed to turn it [b]into[/b] one. Still....... Don't know how your bike is configured...and that's a starting point. You can't figure out too well what you need to do if you don't know what you've got in the first place. ...which takes us back to the beginning. I still don't know where 'recomendations on Just KDX web site say#150 main jet' came from. That's not what I read. And what carb [b]DO[/b] you have? Realistically, there is one way to get a 220 to: 1. Take aggressive riding 2. 'Hit hard' with a close to 300# (with gear) payload 3. Ride like a 125 Get another bike. Maybe a 520 pumpkin or something....... Read thru CDave's tech tips and hop-up guide to get on track with what the 220 needs. He covers reed systems, carb tweaking (like a 36mm bore with the RB mod) and of course jetting. The kdx frontend is a known weak spot. At your weight, the shock isn't up to snuff, either. I think you're barking up the wrong tree....... [/QUOTE]
