i dont see how the reed could be my issue?  :roll:


   um soo..... do i need to pull motor and search for the broken reed? or would that have shattered and blown out?


we have it found ..  :-)  i had my best experience with boesen dual stage reeds...  you should look for them (kx500 86-2004 and kx250 ´83-´96 have all the same reeds )



""i dont see how the reed could be my issue?  ""  the reeds are closed and opened by the underpressure and over-pressure that the piston makes on the way up and down in the cylinder. if the reeds are broken or damaged in any way and so not able to close, the engine can make pressure back to the carb up to the airfilter and so it doesnt work properly.. 

i could slap myself left and right, that i dont thought of the reeds...  but the man of steele was here and rescued the world again...  :wink:

As usual the Man of Steel solved the problem like shooting a shot gun...
The more lead in the air the more likely I'll be to hit a target  :-D
