[QUOTE="92cr, post: 502438, member: 31359"] I changed the pilot from a 60 to a 58 and moved the clip one notch to the top position [n82r].It made it run a little cleaner.before the plug was wet but now it's dry and dark with carbon deposits so I'm not sure if I should go leaner still maybe to a 55 pilot or a leaner needle.The powervalve was checked by the mechanic.It still doesn't rev as hard as I wanted but I went to Destry Abbott's website and watched some of his video clip's with kx500's and his bike sound's similar to mine so maybe that's just the way they run since I don't have another one to compare it to.The 98 I rode about a year ago ran very similar to mine as well and it had a fmf pipe and silencer.I don't want to go and buy a stock pipe and silencer since they supposedly crack alot easier.However the old factory KX500 that larocco and kiedrowski rode sure looked alot like stock.
