    Been very busy with other stuff and haven't posted in a while. I fitted a Keihin PWK 38mm carb with a uni filter. Also cut me a new disc and fitted a TRX450 rear shock with the banshee front shocks. I have been making straight pipes and playing around with them until I found the right...

    Thanks. Make sure your bike has spark, fuel is getting through and that the timing is right. Try starting the bike with the piston at tdc and don't open the throttle when you kick

    Thanks guys much appreciated! The tyres are Maxxis All Trak 22's, I love them. Still want to get me a set of 22's on the front. The bike is very strong and starts relatively easily and the vibration is not as bad as I expected. I have been riding her for a week without any problems. The only...

    Back Wheele Circumference

    The diameter of the tyre will be written on the side wall eg. 22x11x8. So the diameter is 22" +/-. You can check your diameter with the tyre manufacturer since it will not be exactly what is written on the side wall. Yes the circumference is Pi (22/7) x diameter.

    Since the motor is ported the standard pipe will be a bit off. The standard pipe will have to be cut and extended a bit to fit the frame so that will change the tuned length of the pipe. Also the pipe is not in very good condition. We put a degree wheel on the bike and measure the port timing...

    Thanks L.T. I sold the IT frame so made a couple of bucks back but the motor with all the new parts= +/-R9000 and then probably another +/-R6000 or more on the rest of the parts. I saved some money on material,welding and machining that I can do at where I work. Coker Racing Products that make...
