Street Stock 250cc 4-stroke twins

**woodyracer** · 29th November 2009, 19:30

dont worry chaos, the hyosung sponsorship is still up for grabs, ive given it some more thought {not normal for me....

} and im not going to ride one anymore for various reasons but mainy because its alot of money for a bike that ill only be riding for a year or so. I found a good krr150 in christchurch for 1/3 of the price.

Sorry i came off intruding before. Hope to see you at the taupo road race spectacular. Good luck -Max

Cool class though the 250 twins [keeping it on topic]

Yeah I think so ...just hope it takes off.The old rg's etc wont last foreva & as most folk start on a 250 bike you'd think it'll only grow with time. (waiting for the 2stroke crew to chime in here

) Might, with time ,get the bucket fraternity to step up too.
The twins look way cooler

The twins can potentially sound cool too.

Still cant even hear mine with screamin' smokers everywhere,though my exhaust mod ( several 12mm holes drilled in the end of it) has made it sound a tad cooler....shouldve got that Yoshi pipe that was on tardme for $150....
My mates have said it sounds "electric" flat out down the straight amongst the 2 strokes

The only way to free it up on the exhaust side is getting rid of the whole lot and building some equal length pipes. Or a semi cheating way, make a "Y" section to replace the balance chamber, rip the standard can open and remove all the restrictor plates and baffles and then tune the prick, the rear cylinder will want to be a tiny bit leaner if not equal length. Taking the jets out 5 thou of an inch is ideal [on mine it was, anymore and it gets tricky to tune]

On the way to 34rwhp!

I just got bored and took a cold chisel to the end cap on the silencer.. Sounded ok, better than the sewing machine it used to be..

Edit - get out of this thread rach, you bully.

Wll look at doing something along those lines this winter DL,but it'll have a bit to do wtih MCC being O.K with my jap import....

I may have to look at getting a Ninja Ex or "cough, cough" a Hyosung, though Im not bi-ass'd towards either at the mo....advantage of the Hyo being all the tuning tips etc that Chaos will be able to give me , eh Chaos bro !!

Im looking fwd to when the Ninja I hear is being prepared, finally turns up....will be interesting to compare the two. One of the main comments that has come up has been the lack of fairings on the Spada....& the lack of repairs because of that= less cost.Another reason that when & if I get something else, a nekkid bike may be the way to go with just a bikini fairing i.e, a modern VT or the nekkid Hyo.
