    What can i do to get it up to speed in 14mm class, Im going to pull it apart and check the reed valve, and adjust the clutch, i know its trial and error.
    Im running it on 40:1 mix with 98 octane.

    Hi Daz, has power dropped off or always been like this? Does it run better when cold and get slower? What is top end like as clutch setup is pretty critical. Do wheels run free, i.e. brakes not binding? chain not tight?

    Hay Daz in most cases it's clutch. 200rpm under the power band engaugement can cause it to be a bit slow out of the corner. And then theres the other way engauging too late will cause too much slip right through the rev range. It may get up to top speed ok but it wont be using the engines toque well and wear the clutch fast. A well set up clutch should easy see you through a years racing. You may need to sit down and spend a bit of time with it. All spring lengths must be the same then the adjustment needs to be the same on each shoe so as one shoe isn't taking all the weight. Theres a bit in it but once you get it right the engine power will feel a whole lot better.

    Also dont adjust the grub screws to far when trying to find the sweet spot. One flat of the hex is equal to round 200rpm. once you find it going good then messure the space between the shoe spring seat and the adjustment spring seat then you can adjust all new clutchs to this before fitting.

    The only reason you were kicking my arse outta corners was the crank case was full of water, which seized the bearing, broke rings ... which damaged piston lol it won't happen now cause i have a brand new engine! lol
