Bottom End Help
Okay, I have my '09 jetted w/ a state 2 Dynojet kit. I forget which jet my guy put in, but I don't have much bottom end. I don't have my pipe yet, and I hope it will help...
On my buddy's DR400, that thing's got "umph" all over the place, and it is stock. It will grunt and pull in any gear, and it had no problems at all today.
Today, when riding, I was in a technical uphill climb and just wearing it out in 2nd gear, but it was like it was flooding out and bogging down. I eventually lost power, stalled out, and dropped it to the side.
Now -- will a pipe fix this? Is it not jetted right since he jetted w/ the intention of me putting on a pipe soon?
It kinda pisses me off.

And yes, it's a factory sprocket.

You can loosen the carb' at the manifold and air box. Rotate it enough to adjust the screw with a screwdriver. That is IF you've already removed the plug on the screw. If not, you'll have to take the carb' out to drill the plug. The 14 tooth sprocket isn't helping your cause.

My 09 is running a tad rough as well....
I thinks its also the gas mix screw....Air is a tad colder here and just seems like she could use a tad more fuel compared to a 90 degree summer day when the bikes motor temp is up...Or less cold air......With the temps Im getting the oil is about 105 degrees drained after a 20 mile run....Summer time here and I would have had a serious burn after touching the hot oil so soon...
My guess its the clean cooler air and needs that cooler temp adjustment for fall...

As far as the screw goes, your just going to have to either start writing down where the screw is now and make an adjustment and see if gets better and keep repeating until its good (thats the hard way). Or get a Kouba screw...or do what I did. Just make a little tool to reach up in there and adjust it while its running.
I can't say whether you should go in or out because i have no idea where its at now, and if it ever ran right to begin with, or anything has changed in between. I'll just take a stab and say it needs turned out more. I say this because you said you drilled out your baffle in your bike, you also took your snorkel out, you installed a DJ kit, and its getting colder. All signs you need a richer mixture.

I'm gonna get a 13T to see what that does. It's a cheap fix until I get my pipe. I'll probably just run it when I know I'm going to do some "hard core" off-roading, for the street, I'll keep my 14T. I figured I'd get my pipe earlier than this, but my AIG, FNM, FRE, F, GM, and WAMUQ aren't doing what I wanted them to. (Go figure.)

1st is geared pretty low even with the 14 tooth......do you think the stalling may be a malfunction between the seat and the throttle & shifter.
