Should I get a second air striker?
Posted: 11:23 am Oct 21 2008
Have two bikes - 03 and 04 KDX 220.
Son rides the 03. Both essentially setup the same, rev pipe, vforce reeds.
03 has oem carb modded by RB as well as head.
04 bike has air striker carb and head mod. 04 bike sounds deeper, a little more grunt, and overall little more power.
Both silencers freshly repacked. The mod on my 04 head is likely more agressive.
Is this just the difference in the head mod or does the carb striker make that much of a difference? I occasionally ride my sons bike and he is getting better so want the bikes to peform close to the same.
I thought air striker just made the carb less effected by temp and elevation. But what do I know.
When I upgraded my 04, I did the carb and head at same time so hard to tell which one made a difference.
