Hi good afternoon , I 'm new to the group. I have a KDX 200 1993. ( soon I'll upload photos)
I am from Argentina.
they wanted to ask a question regarding kips valves .
In my country it is very difficult to get them, wondering if they can cancel , I have nothing of the mechanism.
there is a problem if I cancel ?.
From already thank you very much. I hope your answers .

you mean just remove the KIPS and run the bike without?

You can get them very easily from BDK Racing in England.

they influence the power at different throttle and rpm ranges.

if you want low end power, glue them (lightly!) in place for low end.

if you want high end power, glue them (lightly!) in place for high end.

if you want mid, split the difference.

yes, you can run the bike without it functioning, but throttle and power will be flat somewhere, depending on how you eliminate them.

ok , thank you very much , I do not have no influence on the compression ?

I've been wondering the same thing, I now understand when I got the world's worst KDX it was running like a turd since the kips valves were jammed open, it had no low end power at all, I only rode it once and almost died, it was late at night in a typhoon without working lights... Anyway the only way for the bike to get any power was to feather the clutch and rev it high, I got intermittent crap power... so my question is, what sort of performance can I expect with the kips jammed half open

Here's the video of me almost dying bringing that pile of turd back to my shop through dodgey Chinese back roads
