Default Mechanics please diagnose my Warrior!

Bump on the engine compression... As suggested, the vibration was coming from the rear two engine mounts being loose. Cool. So the compression is the only other thing left. Also, what does the valve click sound like? I think mine's doing that. Clicks faster when you rev it? Just want to make sure everything is cool before I kill my friend on '99 CR125 who just came back from vacation. On a stock Warrior... why not? (engine atleast...)

Warriors like to eat those stock valves right up and they start to float and rail the seat with many hours on them - if you think you hear the valves check it out right away and replace them with some better aftermarket stuff X_X!

be sure your float/valve is delivering enough fuel at WOT

it may not be keeping up

Where can I buy aftermarket valves? I know Alba sells some Ti springs...

I'll trying readjusting the valves first, but it if does't do much I'll buy new shiz.

http://www.powroll.com -> Powroll has tested their kits for YEARS and they are all proven to be very reliable and offer the gains they advertise. I got the 1mm oversized valves (had them put in when I got the P&P done since the seats need to be re-cut anyway).

I didn't want to start a new thread, so I'm just going to update this one. I went riding all over the place today and she ran good and strong, but I still have a slight top end performance issue. She still bogs, mainly when I'm in 6th and try to get on it towards top speed. No, it's not over revving, it's bogging, way different. I haven't readjusted the valves yet because I'm waiting for the gauge to come in. Seriously, no one here has them in stock(wth?). I've always run 93 octane in my 2 stroke motocross bikes, and continued it with the Warrior. I noticed the manual called for "regular gasoline". Is there any chance it's running a tad bit rich at WOT sometimes because of the octane difference? This is a long shot, but I thought I'd ask anyways. It doesn't occur all the time, I still have the same performance through most of the rpm band. Suggestions? Thanks.

Dude... I really didn't know that. That's my bad! SWEET it'll be cheaper to fill her up now [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img] I didn't think about that between the 2 stroke/4 stroke transition. She's completely empty right now, barely made it back from the trails (one of the return trails was blocked off with a down tree, had to backtrack). Anyways, I'll post if that helped. Thanks Speedy.
