    +3 stroker

    So I am about ready to go oversize with my ported 240 cyl. Pretty good rattle in it. I will probably send it to Denny as he did my head to run on race fuel. Have a +3 crank in the box rdy to go. Vast improvement or not? I can redo the port timing to the longer stroke. I am running a 34 PK and...

    top end rattle

    Flushed it as soon as I got home. Oil was clean. The whole day turned out to be a dumb a#s attack. Motor is back together tonight and sounds healthy no excessive noise. I am going to tear into my intake and make sure I have no leaks in the carb to filter adapter. I have been using grease under...

    top end rattle

    It turns over very quiet but of course there is really no telling how the bearings look. I did not hydro lock the motor but it did lay down from water injestion. It fired right up and I ran it for another hour since. BUT it is getting noisier. I have a new +3 crank and bearings but I am hoping...

    maxxis razrs in sand??

    I have Razrs and they dont seem to work anywhere but on a track. If you are considering something that will work all around I would see what others say about Bandits. I know a couple of guys are racing with them? Any comments. We ride in all kinds of terrain in Florida lotsa sand and loose mud.

    top end rattle

    Yeh, I pulled it apart and the piston is scuffed. Got a new one today. The cylinder cleaned up ok. I think I am getting dirt somehow in the intake> I need to disassemble the boot and adapter and make sure they are clean. It probably did not help that I dipped it in 3' of water and killed it...

    top end rattle

    Turns out the piston is scuffed on the exhaust side. Cylinder looks good. .. I was riding in a lot of dust. Either dirt is getting by my UNI filter OR it got too hot. The skirt is scuffing. The bore cleaned up nice. I will check clearance after the new piston gets here.

    top end rattle

    As for the noise I build outboard drag motors and it sounds like just a wrist pin. I may have to put in my new +3 crank if it is coming down. As far as running upside down. I couldn't believe it would not shut off. AND I have a perfect one inch hole in my butt where the darn handlebar pinned me...

    top end rattle

    Rode 6 hours today and picked up a noise in the top end after a serious flip. Bike ran for 5 min upside down before I could get out from under it and shut it off. I am hoping it is a wrist pin brg. Sounds like a small knock. Vitos 240 kit w/ approx 15 hours on it. Ported on race gas. Klots R50 -...

    How much work to run 15t gear

    I run 15/40 with 18" tires. I ran the chain around once to see where it was close and cut a very small groove in the case. Doesnt touch, been running it like that for a few months now. It looks like it will touch but actually clears when you bolt up the retainer. The plastic on the other hand...

    a arms

    Changing to extended a arms. Do the shocks need to be recalibrated, I presume they will get softer do to the leverage. Anyone who has been through this, please chime in. I am running works shocks on the front and they are a bit stiff. I do not want to send them back to works untill I try it with...

    No reed stops ??????

    Reeds, Talk to Tony Doukas at TDR or Banshee Depot about reeds. He can build anything you want. We used to have him build a set of reeds for the racing outboard that were good for 5-6 passes. But good for 20 extra hp on a v6. On the other hand he can build a set to last a very long time. You...

It doesnt matter how much power you have, you have to get it to the ground!! But on the other hand, I would...
