after a few months of me scratching my head on why my 2 stroke was loosing power i finally opened up the muffler to take a look inside and low and behold the cat was clogged beyond belief! tarish oil and gasket materials made there way down to the cat and choked it off.i cut the cat out and re welded the muffler and WOW! what a difference! its like my bike is back to brand new again.

my problems were weak power in the bottom end,fair mid range and like a governor feel at top speed like i knew it could go faster at wide open,but it kept dogging and falling on its face. if any of you are noticing the same symptoms check your muffler/cat before dropping any money,it could save you a few bucks! you might not have to cut out your cat like i did,but i only did it so i wouldn't have to tear it open again!
 
I hope you aren't running 16:1.
Use 32 or 40:1 after break in.

nope,running 32/1 bike has over 500 miles on it now.... but as a side note i crashed my bike tonight at 3am and im in pain,my bike is in better shape than me.guess i shouldn't of got greedy with all that power i freed up.
