They made KDX200's from 1983 to 2006.so the snorkel was likely the same for all of them. Here's the part number on the bag.




I had wondered WHY was the snorkel so damn large just for a 200...

...until I saw they were 37 horsepower 2 strokes!

That's where the pair valve used to be.

Can u give me a step by step of what you did to delete emissions and for pair valve with part #'s. Thinking I should do the same before power commander install. It all worked out good on your bike? Notice any difference in response or power? Would u recommend?

It works fine... but I don't think it makes any performance difference. However it does unclutter the front of the engine.



I did it as part of my bike weight reduction project. Deleting the smog equipment reduced the curb weight from 293 to 291 pounds.

Got it from SmartMoto in Greece. Stuff like this is contraband in the US.

PAIR/AIS Valve Removal kit with Block Off plate PLE-125 - SmartMoto (smartmoto-electronics.com)



Part # PLE-125 $37.50 +shipping

I took off the valve from the front of the engine, installed the block off plate, and plugged in the resister plug to fool the ECU so no trouble lights turn on.

Thanks for breaking it down for me, Bro. I might do the same further down the road. I want to maximize performance before trying to lose weight.

I tried to get an EJK tuner ($225) but they can't make them right now because they can't get parts, so I'm just going to run without one.
