modded minimoto keeps blowing reed valves
Is anyone having reed blowing issues ??we seem keep blowing reed valves the PBU headstrong kit is so high compression that on the downstroke the reeds are trying to exit the engine via the carb
2 runs and the reeds are fucked. is anyone else popping the std metal reeds
today we fucked around with the fully tricked up bike for a bit and it shat itself - another set of reeds after 2 10 min runs
then we gave up on that and put the race pipe on a std day 2 that had the needle lifted up one notch, it actually went better than the modded one for about 10 mins then seemed to loose power. couldnt be fucked pulling it down to see what the problem was, dont think its reeds cause it still idles, when you open it up it wants to die now, im wondering if the fuel/oil is too lean, and its getting hot after a little bit and the extra drag on the piston is robbing it of powers? the mix is 40:1 using castrol r30 (not my pick but what my mate likes running) it has some caster in by the smell of it.
need to get some carbon or fibreglass reeds for the std block ...Beast can you help there ?
see you cunts later, its a nice day for a ride, pity ive had too many beers
