Don't you look at my accountant.
He's the only one I've got.
A word to the wise, .... don't mess with this woman or her girl friends.
Wrong thread I think ....but good shooting never the less.
Thats random. But ok I will not mess with her![]()
Has anyone tuned any 2 strokes lately? I haven't & had to endure some 4 stroke shenanigans last night. But we almost got an RD400 going. Ok, not even close. . . Maybe I'll get some time tonight to fettle my racebike (read: strip & flush the last of the piston pieces out of the bottom end).

Chambers and I dug out his old GP/FZR combo that has been sitting in the shed for a while. It is an early setup with limited porting and a pipe adapted from a RG250. Last night we ran it up on the dyno, 22.5hp. And Bucket grabbed a few graphs to compare with the 20hp FXR's, I guess he will post them.
Sounds interesting. Have you ever posted or have bog stock FXR curves on your dyno?

No never had a std road going FXR150 on the dyno, I would be interested in getting a base line if someone has one to try.
Not sure if these are good examples but:-
14hp Stock FXR150 Bucket thats not running that well. Cut down pipe and muffler changed to something smaller and out of the way.
17hp Stock FXR150 with bigger carb, std cams, cut back exhaust pipe with after market muffler fitted under the engine.
Thanks, interesting. 1st one doesn't look like its reached its potential with that shaky line, suspect its worse than stock.

Gigglebuttons 20.5hp FXR150, cams. carb and tuned length pipe.
Possibly, lets look at that.
Chambers put TeeZees original 22.6hp @ 9,800 rpm Magic Vacuum Cleaner Engine on the dyno yesterday.
And the 2-Strokes 22.6 3K power spread looks pretty short compared to the FXR's 7K spread.
It might be a high torque 2-stroke but with such a limited (2.5-3K at best) power spread compared to a FXR, are you sure the extra 2 or 3 peaky hp will help very much, a broader spread may be the way to go.
Hi torque without a decent power spread is not going to do the business either. Not without a lot of clutch slipping and gear leaver wiggling.
Even something like TeeZees broad 4k power spread and 28.6hp might not be enough against the 25+hp FXRs that have long linear power spreads.
Hmmmm ....
But maybe something like TeeZee's 30hp with a "variator" to keep it on the peak over a wide road speed range could do the trick.
I know I go on about this every now and then, but everyone seems to forget that NoMates comes out on occasion with his 28Hp RGV100 from 6 years ago and absolutely destroys everyone, or crashes, or buggers it.
Good engine, good chassis, good rider - three titles in a row,lap record,what else is there to say.
I am just about to put an Ignitech on it,for ignition and powervalve, so will put the dyno result up on here when its done.
Ive got a thing thats unique and new.To prove it I'll have the last laugh on you.Cause instead of one head I got two.And you know two heads are better than one.
I would put serious money on the fact that the RGV100 that was built properly 6 years ago,with 28Hp and a 4K spread could be ridden by a good rider tomorrow and easily beat anyone.
No one is going faster now than that thing did back then - 2T or 4T.
So it will be interesting to see what can be done , as the cylinder has been plated to stop bridge wear ( making it reliable again ) and a modern ECU fitted to drive the spark and the PV.
Nigel was left in a shoe box on the Southern Motorway as a child, so gravel roads, snow and rain would be chicken shit to him as no one loved him back then,and no one does now.
