[QUOTE="96sx, post: 207651, member: 4024"] This weekend I'll go ride it and take detailed pics of spark plug. Also if I can post a video I'll do that of it running through the gears. I really appreciate all the feed back this is my first bike. I am mechanically inclined and can figure stuff out I have been reading constantly. When I tore apart my top end cylinder was in print rings were gapped to .027 and power valve bearings were frozen and siezed from carbon. So I just assumed go to original carb specs or Ktm recommended specs and boom everything all better. But nope ha maybe it's still breaking in and the rings haven't seated all the way. I know the reeds are missing a gasket between the dual stage reeds but not sure why they wouldn't send them with them if they are needed? My plug was a little dark and oily so I know I'm still on the rich side but haven't got to really open her up and has been idling to go through heat cycles so it's kinda a bad place to take information from when it hasn't been opened up yet correct? For sure this weekend I'll have a better idea where I'm at. And thanks for the help ! [/QUOTE]
