ESE's works engine tuner

[bucketracer]

I have already talked about sleeves with side exhaust ports as a way of improving ring and piston reliability

Would fitting an alloy liner and nicasil coating it be better then?

I think TeeZee is very interested in trying that.

Maybe if the alloy sleeve was extra thick the outside surface area would be big enough to transfer enough heat to the fins to keep the area around the exhaust port window cool.

I cant immediately remember who, but near the beginning of this thread there was someone who tried to mock TeeZee I guess they were wrong.

I must admit Avril Lavigne helped a little bit with the lyrics...........

Ode to the scooterboy
TZ was a Man, SS was a Scooterboy..... Can I make it anymore obvious?
TZ was a tuner, SS did ballet What more can I say?
TZ wanted hp, And he'd Alway’s say, Secretly SS wanted hp as well…
But all of ESE friends, stuck up their nose as They had a problem with SS's scooterboy's derogatory prose....

SS was a Vespa boy, ESE said, "See ya later boy" SS wasn't well behaved for here,
SS had a Few idea’s But her head was up in space SS needed to come back down to earth...

Five years from now, SS sits at home... Stoking his Vespa, SS's is all alone....
SS turns on Computer, guess who he sees... TZ350 rocking up the thread with Team ESE
SS calls up his only friends, they already know And they've all got tickets to see TZ’s 30 hp ESE show....
SS tags along, snipes From afar and Looks up at the man that SS tried to tune down.

SS was a Vespa boy, Everyone said "See ya later boy" He wasn't good enough behaved for here ,
now he's a German Gaypornstar....Slamming on about his Lambertta.
He gets talked about, like he deserves anyone see what he's worth?
Sorry SS, but you missed out Well, tough luck, That boy's got 30 hp now has good friends.....
This is how the story ends

It's bad to see Scooterboy for the annoyance that Scooterboy could be.
There is more that meets the eye There was no humility that is inside
He's just a Scootertoy and the whole world can see.

Can I make it anymore obvious? He, himself is his only love, But he'll gladly share How he rock’s the scooter world?
Alone for the scooter boy, Everyone said "See ya later boy" He'll be backhome after the show,
TZ be at a workshop Singing the song I wrote About a Lamberetta girl we all used to know.

There is more that meets the eye There was no soul that is inside
He's just a Scootertoy and is still just a pill.

While I appreciate the effort. Shouldn't you not be spending all available time building a motorcycle? I think you may have started before me and I am going racing on Sunday.

I was thinking the same thing Rich.
I've built mine, raced it & blown it up and rebuilt it (and also now on its second colour scheme).
Sad thing not being able to go racing on sunday (after all the prep and hard work mainly by crazyman to make it)....

What's actually holding things up Husa? is there some way we might be able to help?

[wobbly]

You know very quickly if an aircooled is thermally limited.
The power fades very quickly,and can be seen even doing an all gear run on the inertia dyno.
I spent 6 months testing pipes for KT100, and it was easy to make around 20 Hp, but this would drop 2 secs a lap as soon as it got hot, ie 2 laps.
You had to wind in fuel to cool it - not make power.
I ended up searching for power band width, pumping up the bottom end and overev power, keeping the peak well supressed to prevent the power fade from affecting lap times.
Ive sold over 2000 of those pipes now, and so far no one has bettered them on track.

[F5 Dave]

he started off mouthing with 24hp that was ample i think.
.....

Actually currently 24hp is ample to be competitive. I topped 1st qual at the GP with 24 (actually it was 1 or 2 less than that on the day) & it is about what young Nat was holding with his Dads Derbi (less with his) & looked to do the biz.

But clearly more is better.

Competitive maybe, complacent definitely.

[F5 Dave]

oh for sure, the right rider on the right bike with more mumbo is a shoe in, just that hasn't consistently happened. Yet. If for example Nige wasn't self employed it would have been a regular feature.

Absolutely

"Yet" but who wants to bet that it won't.

The trick is don't say nothing till you got lots of bits. All the bits came from different locations for mine. Frame Japan, Swing arm different guy Japan, front end and rear shock NZ. All the other bits I had in the shed ether on the floor or on the old 45. Back to the shed now got to make a new gear lever. I new that skill saw guide would come in handy one day.
She has gained some weight now complete. Need a lighter exhaust. Bike is 92kg now same weight as me. Lucky the quick engine is 2kg lighter and a new muffler should get it back in the 80's. Time to do my own MTB rear break conversion. Got all the bits, I just need the time.

Fair calls all around
I could give you a long tale of woe....
but simply its me holding it up. I blame apathy and chronic procrastination mostly.throw in a Masterbuilder who arn't so masterful. A registered plumber who learn's on the job at my cost and a misses who sees the bucket fund as an extension of her credit facilities. For good measure Add in in some SOE restructuring but as i said it's mainly procastination on my part.

oh the song 2-10 minutes to type and rewrite. It was worth it.. Maybe it's to early for me to go pro then?

[F5 Dave]

. . . ."Yet" but who wants to bet that it won't.

Well I'm trying to fit that gap, but I'm not 'covering myself with glory' if you know what I mean.

[jasonu]

Fixed it for ya

Keith Biddle, Av's Dad, had been unwell lately and passed away peacefully this morning.

He was someone we enjoyed the company of very much and his passing is a great loss.

R.I.P Keith. A good man has passed away well before his time. Enjoyed some great times with Keith and his family. Many good race days at the TRRS. Had a great time last year with Av, Keith and Bev at the Motogp at Phillip Island where we were invited to join them as part of there team when AV was a wild card rider in the 125's. An experience never to be forgotten. Seems a long time ago now.
Our thoughts and wishes to all of the family at this very sad time.

[F5 Dave]

Oh shit. I've been too scared to txt him as time has gone on, last time I talked to him he was too tired to talk long.

RIP mate.
