    Im telling you. Mine had the exact same symptoms. It was a wire getting pinched/pulled from the handle bars.

    I been through the wiring. Nothing it pullled to tight or broke. It has the stock main jet in it. The intake boot is ok with no leaks. For some reason it seems to flood itself out. The jet is 112.5. I tried a 105 jet it didn't make a difference. I had it running with the valve covers off. The valves seem to be working good. I'm hoping I can get another carb from a junk yard down the road. If this doesn't work there might be a dr for sale lol

    I took a carb to another place and they adjusted the float. Brought it back home and still does it. I just don't get it. Next step maybe a weak intake spring and or a wore out cam? I checked for pinched or broken wires and found nothing. Keep the ideas running.

    As stupid as it sounds I would check your fuel shutoff valve. Mine was doing the same thing. I pulled it off and cleaned the fuel filter and still had no luck. It would run awesome as long as it was set on reserve. I bought a new one and wallah it ran good as new.

    LOL you got my sympathy. When i got my 225 I had a hell of a time with it before I figured out it had the wrong pilot jet and the former owner adjusted the throttle cable all the way to make it run so as soon as I started it after rebuilding the carb I thought it was going to blow. I would have never guessed it had a rev limiter.
