1986 KDX 80 bog on take off

[Ecstatic]

Hi there,

Just got a steal on an old KDX80 and gave all the fuel parts a big clean out, checked the air filter was not dirty, then gave the carb a thorough clean, didn't adjust anything though. Started her up and away she went on 2nd or 3rd kick. She rides awesome and the powerband kicks in real hard. The only issue I'm having is that at low RPM it really bogs, you have to give it heaps of gas and very slow released clutch to get it to take off without stalling, and if you go to slow at low rpm it will stall out on you and bog when trying to give it gas at low RPM. Haven't looked at the top end yet and who knows when it was last rebuilt, should I start there??

Thanks
