[QUOTE="AyEss, post: 232556, member: 6746"] Well.. Update.... My daughter had her first track day, on the KTM today... and it went amazingly :) We had our 2-way intercom on all the time... and it was a successful day. Even when she was tired, She wanted to get back out on the track :D Couple of small hickups occured.. Nothing major though... The kickstart occasionally slips... Not a massive deal, i felt with my foot, when it wanted to slip, and only gave it a kick when it had bite... Also... Bike ran a little boggy... Not low down revs... She could crawl around the track just fine, slowly.... But as soon as she got to a "jump" and needed a little extra acceleration to go up it... It bogged slightly... but then if she pulled the throttle back more.. It opened up and blasted.... So sort of like.. Inbetween low revs, and wanting to open it up... it would sound starved, for a short time... I checked the carb needle, and noticed the previous owner had put the clip right at the top... So i moved it back down to middle.... Hopefully that fixes it... Other than that... A perfect day :) [/QUOTE]
