Hi all, I have a 1981 kdx175 which was standing in a barn for 10 years, I have had the bottom end re-built and the cylinder bored from standard to 0.25 with a new wiseco piston kit fitted .
Problem been is the bike seems so underpowered and sluggish from pulling away and accelerating .
I used to own one of these when new and that bike was awesome yet this one is lifeless .
Any ideas what is wrong , I thought it may be the carb but it ticks over no probs and revs ok when standing still.
Thanks , John
