[QUOTE="Trfsrfr, post: 225864, member: 3959"] Took the kids 125 and the kx to the track today. Finally got to ride the KX and she's got .9 hours on her now. She feels like she could be making more power and I'm wondering if I'm too fat in the jetting. She does not start easy, but when she's running she runs and idles good. Put about 5 laps on her and had a hard landing up front on the last one. Pulled into the pits to cool off and noticed the right fork puked the seals and bushings. They were all down at the bottom of the fork, clip ring was almost gone. I knew I needed seals (and I have new ones) but its the only part on this bike I havent touched yet. (I hate doing fork seals), and sure as shit, they grenaded. End of day on the KX. But, while surprising to me (prolly not to you guys), I'm way faster on the kids 125, and the KX...that YZ250 is hard to get a hold of on the track. Brought the 125 into the shop today when I got home, cleaned the carb, dropped the needle, (more work than rejetting), test rode (she rips again), and am bringing her to Motoland tomorrow. I notice that the temp is more of a factor in the 125 when adjusting the carb. The YZ250 can sit for awhile... The Kx...ugh, fork seals... [/QUOTE]
