ESE's works engine tuner

[TZ350]

Kart tuner certainly optimise within a tight set of regulations. If the gloves came off they would do things differently. Interesting to follow the generic basics but I wouldn't be copying an apple to build an orage

Hmmm yes, mr Schrodingers cat, thats central to "The observer's paradox", my favourite bit of nonsence is, "The world must be flat because you can’t pitch a tent on a sphere".

But I think your right, I wouldn't be copying an apple to build an orange either but as God wrote the natural laws that govern all fruit.

Then probably apples, oranges, grapes and bananas are all worth checking out for any revelations, science, observation and an open mind are the means by which mankind discovers his handy work.

......... probably apples, oranges, grapes and bananas are all worth checking out for any revelations.

May I mention, pears, feijoas and grape fruit are worth a thoroughly good look too.................

I agree, when the Kart tuners are able to have a free hand (non control classes), they always seem to be able to extract more power than the (average) national level motorcycle GP rider/tuner.

I have seen 250 gearbox class karts with 250cc GP engines pushing towards 100PS at a national level in NZ, (perhaps some even exceeded that)

It may be budgets, or perhaps the higher level of competition (karts being slightly easier to race at a top level than 250GP bikes), that in an effort to win, every little bit is required from an engine. (double the braking power and traction over a bike is a big advantage)

Actually, I remember Kiakaha having a friggen rope attached from the frame of his 250 kart to his helmet keeping his head from snapping back (off) under acceleration.

Thats because he is weak and old........ so much so he can't even ride a trike (as a passenger) and a real bike at the same meeting now. Blardy pussy!

From my Helmet to my belt, no way I would attach to the frame in case I came out of it,it was more because the headrest on my seat didn't go quite high enough so at full noise the helmet would try to roll over the top of it

Nigel in his Kart hit 1.28 full ruapuna cicuit at a time when the top SBK were 1.32

Says the guy who couldn't do three races on the outfit and had to sub someone else in and even parked his Motard up cause he was to much of a pussy to ride it

Actually, yea, that makes more sense!

Ricks son out for a try

Joseph TZ350 grandchild
Robert TZ350 grandchild

[Buckets4Me]

just a few photoes to show my frame and the new bracket for hanging the frount of the engine off

The bike at the moment (the garage is a mess I know)
Old radiator mount that was starting to crach (I know I know it was easy)
New engine mout to take it's place

Lets hope I dont have to do a follow up on this
