Steve, you're right about the bog..that was the first ever run and carbs were set to factory spec. I since turned the air screws in so that they are only a half turn out, and raised up the needle a bit...it is way crisper now. That said, I have a charging issue so it is breaking up at higher RPM.

It is a KH250A5..and to make matters worse, it is Canadian spec so there are lots of quirky differences to this model (daytime running lights, 530 chain, 42T rear sprocket, different swingarm length, etc.). I like the bike though, it is soooo light you can push it around like a bicycle.
