35mm air striker help
Posted: 09:22 am Jun 04 2019
So i bought a 2002 kdx 220 for my 14 yo son to ride!
First ride out in the woods and he crashed it into a tree and broke the headlight shroud He said the throttle stuck open. It happened twice to him that day.
So i replaced the throttle cable and took it the kdx out myself for the day. After about an hour, i was loving the bike and ripping pretty quick through the single track when the throttle stuck. Caught me off guard and i launched it over a berm, then bailed and ghost rid the bike. Luckily i only sprained my leg a bit. Rode the rest of the day, ready to stab the clutch if it happened again.
Upon inspection of the carb it looks pretty worn, the slide has a lot of wear. So instead of trying to chase down the cause, I bought a new airstriker 35mm for the bike.
The AS comes with a 4.5 slide. Can any jetting gurus help me with a starting point????? leaving the 4.5 slide in there. i Dont want to use the old worn one and new ones cost over $100.
