    @vtrn_raptor Sounds like it's running rich. Is it sooty? Could be too much oil.

    Two strokes don't have too much compression.

        @vtrn_raptor really start from scratch your only confusing your self more it does sound like your running rich like @Calum said but I would not say that as you have still not put a picture of the plug up or taken a video and it could and most likely is too much fuel and that's why I said to run the bike for 10 sec's and take a picture as your descriptions are bad but considering that your at least trying I will tell and show you the differents alt text

              the top one is a plug with too much oil
              the bottom one is too much fuel

                          @vtrn_raptor yey now people can help you and this could be a few things don't think you will have a hard time solving this one I personally think that is a fuel problem what is it like at idle and building up to 6k and can it be a pain to start sometimes
                          whats it like on and off choke take your time to answer

                            Will it start without choke?

                                That looks and sounds like it's overfueling to fook.

                                Quick check, remove the snorkel, does it get better or worse. Restrict the airbox, does it get better.

                                    Idles fine until giving throttle will gradually build up to 6k and even past it but does what happens in the vid if you give it full throttle with choke on it dies instantly but will start with it on but have to turn it off usually starts first kick from cold I'll take the snorkel off in a sec and give it a go
