Not that I know off

I had a KLR650 with auto decompression. It would hold the exhaust valve slightly open so when you checked the exhaust side valves (shim over bucket style) you had to make sure the decomp system wasn't pressing against the shim or it would give a inaccurate too tight reading.

I assumed this little bike would need it too., as well as it's electric start. Maybe a 200 doesn't need a compression release and the starter motor just chugs through the hard spot.

It seems like the timing is fine by the way. If you look at the cam gear when it's at "T" it's around level. If you moved it a tooth forward or back it would be off. Since there is only one cam it's not like the exhaust and intake could be set off from each other.

As for my exhaust issues...

I've done some searching on this forum and found it's the FMF Turbine Core 2 that people use, with the 1 1/4 mid pipe. Does anyone have a header recommendation that meshes with this pipe and this bike?

Thanks for the help and words of encouragement.
