Hrmm
Mine's an '05 ATK 450MX motorcycle, with a stock engine (440cc) It runs good when it's lit but If I stall out It take a bit to get her lit up. I'm running a stock ATK XC map. I wounder if the lack of 10 c's is hurting my situation.

what I meant was 13:1 AFR at 2200 idle, and throttle position of about 8%
So, I mean I have everything I needed to be at except the 4% throttle position..

there is no way in **** I can get the bike to start and idle at 4% I have to go to about 8%. Any ideas on how to resolve this? could my TPS sensor be bad?<br /><br />On a side note, the bike seemd to run well, I stalled it a few times and it started, not as easily as I hoped, but still better than b...

I used my dirt tire, but the bike jumped all over the dyno, would not reccomend it again.. I would look at some bike shops who deal with cruisers, I think a harley sportster used a 19" front tire some times. <br /><br />I was gonna look and ask about paying a few bucks for a used tire, since you onl...

I'll make sure I'm not past 4% throttle this weekend... <br />It's a big weekend, they are having KTM demo days on a 4000 acre ranch sat followed by hare scrambles Sunday. If I get embarrased by a big bad '06 ktm 525, I will be racing the KDX in the hare scramble. The atk does well, until I stall it...

NO throttle offset, I think m,y throttle % is closer to 6 than 4 ...<br />I found I was way too lean off the bottom, so it seemed like my hot start problem was caused by this.<br />I've found that twisting the throttle a hair while cranking usually gets the bike started... <br /><br />I still conten...

when I slapped the bike on the dyno.<br />1st run showed it was WAY lean on the bottom, and Rich on top.<br />I ended up with an offset of 1.4 and a flow rate of 2500<br />Which gives lots of gas on the bottowm, and take a little off the top... It did however start acting up the last few runs, but n...

Hot start causes

I was shooting the breeze after a race with a guy this last weekend, and talking to him about my hot start problem...<br />Without discussing my actual bike, he said that most 4 stroke's hot start problems, derive from the de-compression mechanism.<br /><br /><br />I took 2 hours of adjusting the fu...
