    Engine gone

    5 races for a pushed engine is good.. thats 5 races + the practice session. thats about 10 hours of full throttle riding.. after that much on a high output engine, you need to AT LEAST disassemble it and check your tolerances and clean everything. a stock 125 should do a...

    new jug back fires

    cmon, dont freak the guy out.. the engine wouldnt run if the piston was in the wrong way. the plug may be shorted.. its when the oil permeates the ceramic insulator. no burning or cleaning will fix it. get a box of 10, you can usually save a few bucks in the long run. change the plug.. if it...

    Help plz......

    on the 03/06, disconnecting the TORS is really easy... there are two THIN wires that go into the CDI box.. these are the TORS wires. Cut them both.. Ground them both... your engine will now idle but not run above idle speed. you need to disconnect one of the wires from the ground to get it to...

    Piston question

    You should NOT port the boost window in the back of the piston. if you have the patience to do it accurately, you SHOULD port the sides of the piston skirt so they match up with the bottom of the transfer ports. you know, on the bottom of the side of the piston, the cut out aligns with the...

    Jet confusion!

    go one or two numbers bigger on the main jet and see what difference it makes to the bikes powerband. If it becomes to peaky or pipey with no low end and then a WHAM when the revs get high enough your a bit too rich.. the main jet will change the way the engine feels, so try it. see if you...

    to keep the injector or not??????

    my friend has a 92 blaster and it still hasnt failed... i think if you mod it alot, and raise the engine speed with porting, carbs, pipes etc the nylon gear gives up and breaks and doesnt spin the pump any more.. if your stickin to stock, Id keep it myself, but thats just me.. simply because...

    i think i got some knock/preignition...

    yeah, my deck height is .1 mm thats where i get my 1.4 mm squish clearance.. 0.8is from my gasket, my chamber is recessed by .5 mm and my deck is .1.. so .8 + .5 + .1 = 1.4mm

    Crank hard to spin by hand

    did you check the side clearance on the con rod bearing? if someone replaces the big end bearing and pin and doesnt get the clearance right, it makes the crank wider or narrower leading to this problem when you re assemble the cases. its what oconnor said, and now that youve tapped it, its...

    i think i got some knock/preignition...

    im running a keihin carb and the numbering on the jets is different.. im running a 160 main, if i run a 165 the top end is flat and it bogs. if i run a 155 its spot on, never bogs and rips! so its already a bit on the fat side.. my minimum squish clearance was 1.4 mm but im afraid that...

    i think i got some knock/preignition...

    rubbersalt, the top of the port is actually 32mm from the deck (i had figured 33 from the deck to more accurately work out my trapped volume given the way my exhaust port roof is curved to preserve ring life), and the port floor was lowered to the lowest position the piston will go to (BDC)...

    anyone use reed spacers?

    thats because no one does steady state dyno testing.. or do they?? all they ever do is transients. its not gonna show there! the only place a bottle will work is at its fundamental frequency which you can tune to fill in a small hole in the torque curve someplace. also, power curves are very...

    anyone use reed spacers?

    forget the spacers and bottles. best get an exhaust or a better filter and a jet if you dont have money hanging about.. but lets not completely kill the idea of a boost bottle. some cars use then and some race engines as well. just not the blaster..

    anyone use reed spacers?

    thats basically what the Keihin PWK35 airstriker has its like an extra jet that you can tune just by twisting a screw. dont know to be honest! but if your looking for more performance, you need more mass air flow through your engine. so you need to get a high flow filter and use a bigger jet to...
