anyone ever seen kips this dirty? was wondering why it only hit powerband 50% of the time i would get on the throttle...

going to pull the top end off. Dont know much about these kips systems, but hoping its either repairable or replaceable. ive heard that one side of the kips is NLA- is that true?

That's just the resonance chamber. But clean it, and the valves too.

whats left of them

Someone never bothered to clean them much.

We all enjoy what valves do for the power band, but few "previous owners" seem to clean them.
