[QUOTE="dirt bike dave, post: 1355334, member: 18302"] FWIW, when I had my '99 CR, the suspension was done by Factory Connection and set up for trail riding/off road, and it was sensational. Very plush. As for the powervalve, it is quite easy to mis-align the fork in the case with the pin that comes out of the bottom of the cylinder. It's not hard to put the cylinder on correctly, but you may have to manually position the fork in the cases before you set the cylinder on, so that the pin goes between the fork tines. Of course if you do have to remove the cylinder, you will need a new base gasket and a new head gasket. BTW, if your powervalve is not opening at all, you are going to be amazed at how much power you get when it opens! The '97 is known for very good top end power. If your powervalve is opening and you are only a little down on top end power, your problem might be with the carb. Your carb has a 'power jet' solenoid. These occasionially go bad or the wires get disconnected. Basically, the solenoid clicks at high rpm and leans out the carb, and the leaner mixture provides more power. You can check the solenoid by removing it from the carb and hooking it to a 12 volt source. It should fire as soon as the juice is connected to each side. [/QUOTE]
