I have an 01 Blaster with FMF pipe that needs to be jetted. The only problem I notcie is that it wont idle without stalling. Will I do any damage to my quad if I dont get it jetted soon?

I think. Rich is better than lean. If you just got a higher performing pipe then its likely that less lubricant (gas oil mix) is being retianed in the combustion chamber. Lean=poor performance+damage

TTR125 is a fourstroke right? Different ball game. They dont like being lean either but it takes a lot more to melt one.

It's only having a problem idling, nothing else.

even if it doesn't SHOW UP elsewhere in the revs, that doesnt mean it still isnt lean and getting unnacceptable lubrication
