So this is for Noid to tell us what he's up to. And sorry to hear about the accident.
DAM YO MUDFLAPS NOW i actually have to do some work on my bike but cheers anyway. Well this weeked i plan on cutting up my exhaust (check my profile for pic's) i currently have it tucked up under my seat moto gp style, looks cool but the carb is right beside it and i need an airbox as i am not running a filter or anything on my carb and i think a bit of hot air might be getting in there, and wind disturbance might not also be the best. 4T tunning 101 keep intake charge as cold as possible . . cold air is dencer making more bang for bucks. going to put it under neath engine like it was befor i moved it. Going to go up to AFC tomorrow hopefully and find a MX filter thats isnt to big and is cheep. (Free plug to AFC the boys there parts and matanance guys are good to my family, currantly have 7 bike in the family fleet) then got to make air box. thinking 4L ice cream container with a few mods. . cheep as chips. . and gives me a good reason to eat a tub of ice cream. might replace my catch can just so i can buy another box of beer aswell have to replace front wheel bearing as well, been planing on doing this for quiet some time. . needs an oil and filter change tooo. . all these things are new to me never had to do them on previous bike because my dad (brains behind the operation) has always done them for me. but the first thing i neeeeeeed to do is take the bike for a ride, had to retire from the last practice day at taupo engine was making a weird sound. . like a nocking at the door if it F*CKED itself ill pull it out and NEWMANZ RC have a new water cooled Loncin 150 ariving SOOOOOON, i might nominate myself to be the test dummy for it or BERT will try and convince me to go 2T
Bert will always ALWAYS try and keep you on a 2 smoker!! Newmanz have been promising that water cooled engine for months now. I'll believe it when I see it Not sure about eligibility though for buckets? Isn't 100cc the largest you can go water cooled? Bert will pull me up on this pretty quickly. That is quite a list of things to do, but I like the sounds of starting with beer and ice cream.
Bert will always ALWAYS try and keep you on a 2 smoker!! Hell yes, two strokes are the bomb. yes well hummm generally.... mines a scud (fuck all use to anyone). Newmanz have been promising that water cooled engine for months now. actually its been about 18 months, since I first asked them about it... I'll believe it when I see it Not sure about eligibility though for buckets? Isn't 100cc the largest you can go water cooled? Bert will pull me up on this pretty quickly. not a problem its a stinky four stroke, you need all the help you can get. nope the 100cc rule is for us 2Ts. Really I'm just jealous... That is quite a list of things to do, but I like the sounds of starting with beer and ice cream. That's a fantastic plan boys, you two put on weight and I'll loose some and we might all be equal.. Noid, you might has issues with using a icecream container. they tend to turn inside out. Richban had a nice solution at taupo/manfield: a round ~klick-clac (about a 1.5lt volume). but it seemed to have issue at Wellington so he stopped using it. maybe ask him for some advice on it. I personally fucked around with four different options, it still runs better without one; even with petrol/oil pissing all over my rear wheel....
yep lots to do . . . bert must spend all his time in his work shop rebuilding engines !!!! lol newmanz will only get the engine if i order it and make a down payment. went to ktm today, my idea of using a mx filter will work ish, maybe on a good maybe not too. so might just build an air box with no top and hock some pantyhose over the top. way RAG. got oil and wheel bearings so thats the go this weekend. Also on a side note i was wondering who has a sidecar bucket racer ? im way keen to give it a go. .maybe build one too
Also on a side note i was wondering who has a sidecar bucket racer ? im way keen to give it a go. .maybe build one too I might know of one... I'll follow it up this week. and it was a 2T, nice. or we could get/build one of these: (once lotto is sorted = $20k!!!!!) http://www.minimotoclub.co.uk/vb/sho...ds-Young-Teens or a more simple approach: (build the fucker) http://www.minimotoclub.co.uk/vb/sho...ilding-asylum-!!!!!! we can just scale down stinky. humm I'm not going to sleep tonight thinking about building a sidecar!!! damm you noid.
http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Mo...-282668822.htm i say no more !!! dam that is cool, can someone gift me 1500$ !!!! please
http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Mo...-282668822.htm i say no more !!! dam that is cool, can someone gift me 1500$ !!!! please Now that is a mean machine!!! Didn't Richban try and use a stiff plastic measuring jug? A water cooled 4t!!! How much was it? Not that I'd get one but sounds cool
yea herd Richban did that, hes fast so ill copy him !! engine is 700$ or there abouts. . problem is it is still carbyd . . . im a fuel injection boy less to go wrong. . plus i dont know anything about carbs. lol ask Fi5hy and bayden they fixed my carb for me last time, cheers boys 700 hundy is another uni paper for me so might not be on the cards at the moment, plus might have a motard . . dont tell the mrs .lol
but he (rich) has given up on it and the different trumpets. inside knowledge (seems as I pitted with him all weekend). yea 700 ouch, and study is more important. you can have your fun later on.... Motard, you sick man. Carbs are still the ducks nuts mate. a well tuned carb will out do a fuel injection system any day especially on a small engine doing as much work as a bucket motor.. Though i saying this; I still interested in building a system just cause I can. I you want to learn about CARBs read through this. its about as good as you will find. http://scootrs.com/tech.cfm?tip=tunecarb#e Also, what carb are you running?
whats wrong with motards ? ill double my track time if i get one and take it to roys hill !!! and the one im looking at is street legal, i really want a road bike. my xs400 bobber project is sitting in the conrer ill get to her one day. im running the pumper carb, factory loncin i think, got it off Fi5hy. Ducks Nuts aye might have to study up on them then . . . Yea i also herd that he was ditching the salid drainer. . iv got some PVC pipe and a heat gun, just need to make the mould for the shape. ill add that t the list of things to do . . not allowed to work on the bike this weekend, got to get my uni assignments up to date. im not a happy camper. next few weeks are going to be crazy, think that ill miss both the wellington and Roys hill rounds dam it. shifting next week/weekend, trying to get the mrs sorted for her 4month trip to America, got 3 uni assignments due in 3weeks time (llooked at them but havent started them really) and at the moment im working 55+ hours a week on a big project at work thats due sometime soon . . well my bitching over have a good day. the mrs snapped me on here and yea. bye
Wow...Isn't it funny, I just assumed that Noid was a dude! But after reading all that whinging and moaning I think I might have changed my mind. You might need to put up some photos to prove yourself!!! And if you are a chick, I hope you're hot...RAG Racing could do with a Brolly Dolly!!
im no brolly dolly Mudflaps. . or a girl !! ask bert iv just paid him a visit to see what he was up to. . . and if bert finds me hot then well ? ? ?
Air Boxs: you might want to read this: http://motorcycleinfo.calsci.com/Airboxes.html and http://www.bgideas.demon.co.uk/tmanual/Tm_Ch2.pdf lots of useful calcs etc to actually get something out of it rather than just a box.... Also have a read through from here, TZ did a lot of study of airboxs for his plenum http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/sh...-tuner/page117 (post 1743). And no noid you are not hot...... never will you be my brolly dolly
Hows the progress going D ? Did you get over the Roys in the weekend ?
