2005 KX250 Idling Problem
« on: August 15, 2010, 10:35:03 PM »
Hi,

I have an issue with my 2005 KX250 (2 STROKE)....

it's start perfectly....runs perfectly.....pulls like the clappers...idles nicely
early in the day.....

once the bike is hot....after about an hour of riding.....
it seems to loose the ability to idle....
when it's cool it idles perfectly.... even in gear....

when its hot....i have to blip the throttle constantly to keep the motor running.....it's okay in neutral(not perfect, but a bit better)....but when in gear with clucth fully engaged....i have to blip the throttle....constantly
it's hard cause i'm tired and now i have to blip the throttle the whole time going down massive downhills and and and and....and I HAVE TO KICK like 20 times on the way home...that puts a damper on the day to be honest.

but the bike starts everytime from a light kick if it stalls.....it's just tiring and irritating.
could it just be that my main jets too big.....or can i just tweak my idle.....or something....
don't really wanna spend money...

AND NO...i don't want a rekluse clutch :)

Check to make sure the tank vent line is not plugged. When the heat from riding heats the tank and it can't vent then your not getting enough fuel.
