Hi guys,
I am fairly new to 2 strokes and I purchased someone else's mess and have been trying to give it new life. I can get it to idle nicely but it has problems hitting the power band, even if I hold the throttle wide open. Sometimes it hits and it takes off like an animal but it is short lived and it completely cuts out for about 10 seconds before I can rev it up again. It has a K&N air filter, a motion pro tors throttle eliminator, a stock cylinder and piston, and an aftermarket exhaust. It is a 2001 and the guy I bought it from had been racing it with a 240cc cylinder and piston. It had very low compression when I got it so I put the stock equipment back on it. Any ideas why it cuts out? Thanks!
