Try tightening the cylinder head....torquing the four nuts on top. Oh wait....didn't I already suggest this??? In a roundabout way? ;-)

Make sure you don't have anything in your exhaust(just being able to blow through it easily doesn't count) Try riding without the exhaust- only for a little bit! If your engine is OK, the problem is with the exhaust.

P.S. Riding without exhaust can be bad for the engine- don't do it more than maybe 3 minutes- just enough to tell if the problem is your pipe.

Also make sure your carb is attached securely to the engine. Air leaks cause lots of problems.
