me and my mate have the same x4r's and his rev from bottom to top real quick and free where mine revs like my gpx125 engine if you get my drift.My bike is a great 150 and it goes real well but after riding my mates same bike i want mine to be just like his.Anyone know why mine doesnt rev quick and high? Would like so help please.

i believe he meant your brake pads dragging on the rotors, no need to take the engine apart to check that.

no they wont be because he isnt moving and he says it is reving up slower.

possibly different air filter, maybe you not sucking in as much air



and are you using the same fuel? the only other thing i can think of is jets

its not a carby issue,we both put a 22mm mikuni on our bikes with same jets,even switched carbs and my bike still acts the same as it did before.Really confusing isnt it.When he runs my carb his bike revs really quick still

maybe his bearings are in better shape?

yea there was,still think theres something not right,just say his revs at 12000 mine is about 9500

but it still goes well,most of the time i kick him anyways coz he spins to much where mine digs

foxman,

Big mystery.

Have you checked the valve adjustment, ignition timing and advance on your bike?

Swap coil with your buddy's bike? Air leak on the intake? Obstruction in your exhaust?
