RGV250 rebuild?

I'd be keen too, but don't think a one-armed passenger would last long on the back.

Hard work on a short chair bro, but you'd be pretty safe on a long outfit I would think.

I think the proper way to measure the oil flow is with a vacuum gauge or something but i figure filling a syringe with some oil and pluging it into the start of the oil line and that should easily show how much is flowing through and be accurate.
I took it for a 5 min ride tonight, seemed to go well but didnt really get to open her right up but fuck is she loud.
The stock chambers i was using must have had some major baffling in them.
Defiantly be keen to have a blat around the track with you.

Do want!

heres my 2c

given that none of your settings are known and that it has non standard pipes I would be checking my jetting and oil delivery rate real soon,like before you get anywhere near full throttle for the first time

a 2T can run perfectly well on little or no oil and a lean mixture at small throttle openings,but open up the taps and the requirements change dramatically.

I would enjoy overtaking you down the straight while you are still mobile not sitting on the side of the track with the dollar signs spinning round!

good luck,see you on saturday,keep an eye out for a Yoshimura RG with twice as many cylinders as yours

I expect the fuel and jetting to be ok as im using the pipes, sapc, and carbs out of the bike that was running, but im using the engine i got from imdying that seized from an oil block.
What i will do is replace all the oil lines, if that doesnt work i might just scratch my head some more.

Actually, if it wouldn't be a total bitch, I wouldn't say no, and I know another nutter who'd probably be keen for a swing

its no prob at all, always keen to take people out and bring any othr nutter out too haha. need leathers n helmet tho, but i can prob borrow extra pair

I'd be keen too, but don't think a one-armed passenger would last long on the back.

why don't we try i bet it would be hard work. u cud just sit in the tray and dont move, shudnt fall off like that

[Fast Eddie]

oh yea aiming to be there friday 31st for track play racing sunday 2nd at ruapuna

Two strokes need a bit more care than four strokes, you'd be wise to at least consider his words

He's not wrong.

Tell us about your setup (I'm pretty lazy):
- 22D30?
- 34MM carbs?
- Which jets?
- Using the solenoids? (plumbed up as per manual?)
- Any airbox mods? (dump them if you have)
- Which pipes?

The 280/270 jets are probably fine, but there's a few odd carb models so you want to be double checking that stuff at the very least.



I've got a new one piece that needs some love, so I'll bring that Eddie

nice work! great job done so far

[Asher]

The bikes all ready for tomorrow.
I put in a different oil pump and it seems to run fine.
I went for a quick blast tonight and it runs great with heaps of power, but will manage to scare children with how loud it is.
I will post plenty of pics from tomorrow and will try and video myself going through the tunnel at full throttle.

Let's hope the weather allows us to play with our toys

Had an awesome day today, racing is way harder and scarier than i thought it was.
The bike was good except for one thing; the power valves werent working, just meant i was down in power under 7k rpm.
I will get that sorted out this week.

I wasnt able to get many pics as my camera had a flat battery.

[gammaguy]

Yeah I had a great day out too.

Glad I took the TDR as the RG want in the mood to play today so I only did one session on it.

Lots of nice 2T machinery out there too
