i heard something about that.........

but in all realness, 2 strokes do idle...... ive had 2 of them which idled and ive also got a weed wacker and a blower that are 2 stroke and they idle...... so who ever made that up needs a check up

i got it i took the plug out cleaned it, even though it was new, i adjusted the air fuel screw, the stupid kawi shop had it 4 turns out, its only supposed to be 1.5 turns out, and the i took the idle screw out, and cleaned it, and cleaned the hole, then i put it in and screw it in as far as it could, and my bike was idlein high, so i unscrewed it a lil and now it can idle all day:D

o ya, chanman is right 2 strokes do idle, just not a clean idle like a 4 banger, its the kinda idle that sounds like its fixin to die, but never does:D

you will foul plugs if ya let it idle

well ive had a Blaster and an LT250R and they both idled, ive seen 250Rs idle, and ive seen banshees idle. But today i rode a YZ125 and the dirtbike engines dont, it was weird for me to get used to, u had to keep the revs up for it to stay going...

So my experience is 2stroke dirtbikes dont and 2 stroke quads do.......

if u let a rm125 idle she wont run the same on the same plug until u change the plug, same with blasters, and my banshee..

the RM125 i rode could idle without needing a new plug, and my old blaster always idled........ look no point in arguing over this, we obviously both had diffrant experiences........

ya if your tryin to rail it, but if im just chillin takin my time.........

[Chanman420q]

if ur worried about when u pull the clutch in, then just keep the revs up

i do do that but i cant really describe wat it does, its like when i pull the clutch in its the same effect as pushin the killswitch unless i rev it immeditatly
