 Thread: My thoughts and a Progress Report |
|

So I blew my engine on the DYno, it was a coolent problem that I neglected to sought out, I havnt got the motor apart yet, but I think its piston slap (wrist pin damage), I guess Ill find out when I get it apart.
with one of the motors I got a Power commander USB, but I think the map thats on it isnt suitable, it seems to run a little lumpy at tickover.
Anyhow bought a couple of engines and its up and running again, I think the shims need attention but its running OK, Ive decided with what I have left engine wise Im gonna build a stroked motor, for 2K you can get a KIT kit from BIGCC, that gives you 1170...gixer 1000, and I think Id rather go that direction than go with a turbo,
yeah friken, had a little trouble with bleeding the coolant system, but heres a word of warning to all you fighter peeps the overflow container is very important, and has to be vacuumed sealed, if your using a one hose coolant resivour it needs a siphon tube to the bottom of the coolant resivour and it also needs to be primed,
Anyhow Im ready to pick up my clutch cover with the window in it,
and Ive got a VFR swinger that Ill probably get in this winter...
Still thinking of Paint.....but I think the raw metal look still looks good.
what do you guys think.
I dont think Im ever gonna sell this bike, Ive had offers, what it is really worth? $3000 maybe $4000,
I mean people build fighters thay dont buy them.
I'm looking at buying a new machine in the next year, and this thing will remain in my stable as a URBAN ASSAULT Machine.
