Hi mate on the carb you will find 2 screw 1 is for the idle and the over is for mixture the idle one will be the furthest out screw it in 1/4of a turns will the engine is running this will take the idle up on the engine and the backfiring is fuel in the exhaust not being burnt so on the over screw on the carb screw that in 1/4 of turns this will decrease the amount of fuel going into the engine if it still backfires screw it in 1/4 of turns again and see what difference it makes good luck

2005 kx250f wont idle.will idle fine w/choke on.carb cleaned,new idle jet#41 mixture screw 2-1/8 turns out still no change. pops on deceleration.runs good top end
the fact that it idles with the choke on indicates that fuel mixture is the problem here remove the mixture screw completely check that the o ring seal is not damaged & that the end of the needle is not worn or bent if either of these conditions are obviouse replace the damaged or worn parts general rule of thumb with mixture adjustment is 1&1/2 to 2 turns out give it a try

Just bought a 04 kx250f starts very hard and pops and backfires
Sorry, could be a clogged up carb from sitting or a bad ignition box. Have you got a pal with the same bike you could change out the carb to try? If the bike sat for quite a while, it almost certainly needs a carb cleaning and service.

2004kx250f won't kick start, can push start. popping when decelerating, won't idle
idle jet has probably got blocked, there are two jets, an idle and a main, when your bump starting it is most likely using the main jet and when you decreas the throttle it is coming onto the blocked idle jet. take the idle jet out of the carb and check it.

My 2007 KXF 250 keeps backfiring? why is this?
Backfires are caused by mixture burning in the exhaust pipe. I would suggest that you check the seal between the exhaust valves and the head when the piston is on the compression stroke. You may have a burnt valve (I understand KXFs are prone to this problem!). Try talking to Teamgreen Kawasaki, they may be able to point you in the right direction. Good Luck!

Why is my kick starter ceasing? I just changed the oil in my 2004 kxf 250, and went to ride it and it would just die and the kick starter ceased. Please help..
I have same bike and know some about it. and i race a lot. your bike has a crank or rod whatever you want to call it but it could be cracked, broke, or even could have dirt on it.
