I've been getting a YZ85 fixed up for my son and I've got some jetting questions. When wicking the throttle from 1/4
throttlw or idle it falls on its face and dies. If you roll it on it pulls hard. It idles nice and has decent throttle response, just a mid-range bog.

Main is 138 and pilot is 38. Clip is on the richest notch which did help it but not completely. Am I chasing a pilot or main issue?

This is pretty typical for YZ85 since no powervalve. They will do it on stand even when jetted correctly but not on track.

That said it's usually a pilot/air screw issue. You can also try running a slide from a KX85 (3.0) which is slightly leaner. I doubt I can find my YZ85 tuning specs as it's been awhile but I do remember tuning air screw every ride..............
