Rev Limiter on CDI??

[lynngarner]

2001 Gasgas xc250. Runs great with one exception. When maxing revs in lower gears it feels like a rev limiter is kicking in. It has the stock CDI on it which I assume is Kokusan with an angled side and black wire covering.

Does this CDI have a rev limiter on it?? All this time I have been thinking I had a jetting problem, but I had not considered the possibility of a rev limiter with shorter gear ranges than I had anticipated.

Any input or thoughts are appreciated. The bike has a new nickasil cylinder sleeve and Wiseco Pistons and Rings with the stock Mikuni PWK. New Power valve as well. The bike idles and wide open its a monster till it hits that limit that I had considered jetting. Thanks for your help. lg
