I was kidding of course, but it shows that there are no original ideas, just innovative implementations by motivated people. My motivation can be a bit simian.
Ohh look, Bananas!
Don't you look at my accountant.
He's the only one I've got.
Recently I have been trying to find the posts that talk about pipes and collate and edit them. There is heaps of it and pages 620 630 640 650 660 670 and 680 have un edited collections of raw material. If your interested in expansion chambers they are worth a look.
Pages 610 600 590 580 570 ..... 100 etc all have links lists to other stuff, then there is the Thread-Tools View-Thread-Images option that also helps to find the interesting pictures and posts.

The Basic Team ESE Suzuki GP125 1980's Engine.
Transfers open 114 ATDC for 132 Duration A port angled 12 deg up (Std), B port 5 deg up.
Exhaust opens 80 ATDC for 200 Duration and 72% port width.
Inlet opens 145 BTDC closes 80 ATDC 32mm equivalent dia port window, 24mm taper bored carb, 135mm inlet tract from RV to bellmouth.
Old Honda RS125 exhaust.
We got most of the improved performance from widening the rear transfers as much a possible and opening the exhaust port to 72%
The only real difference is the 30hp engine has an exhaust port opening 78.5 ATDC for 203 duration and 75% wide.
Comparison of 27 and 30 rwhp engines.
For the 4T boys ... the Polyquad Head
[QUOTE=TZ350;1130485469]NOID is right and it was Thomas who recently reminded me to look at the actual power to weight ratio of the faster bikes, and at 30hp and 210kg with rider and gear the Beast is not that flash. Avs is much better and I think the Beast is easily equalled or bettered by Rick, (FarmaKen maybe) and some of the light 4T's.
So we have the hp, now we need to make a lighter bike.
My bike on the scales at Taumaranui was 85 kg with fuel
Me on the scales with riding gear is 87 kg
Grand total of 172 kg - still miles off Rick and his RS/Tf
I have no idea of Hp for my bike, but am hoping the new triple Ex ports will give me a couple more and cure the hesitation when getting back on the gas after a tight corner - I am pretty sure closed throttle under brakes after being wide open on straights has been leaving the crankcase full of contminated fuel charge( due to insufficent Ex blow down) and causing a big wait and see effect when opening the throttle again.
Depress the lever on the left handlebar 1/2 way. Open throttle part way. Wait for it. Wait for it. NOW - let go of lever & turn throttle as fast as you dare.
Don't you look at my accountant.
He's the only one I've got.
That is the exact system I have been using up till now - replaced dead clutch on the Saturday at taumaranui . Every thing comes at a price![]()

Can you define 'competition part'? I guess anyone can put it on his street bike and go shopping... But yes, it is primarily meant to win races. So what is decisive? The text on the box?
I don't remember exactly, Haufen. It may have been a couple of years ago.
The 'wait and see' effect can have a couple of other causes. Resonances in the inlet tract when the throttle is closed, can push the fuel in the needle tube down. Then afer re-opening the throttle the engine runs 'dry' for a moment.
And in reed valve engines the opening of the reed in the power band largely depends on exhaust pulsation. Once you close the throttle, combustion stops and there is no more exhaust pulsation. Re-opening the throttle initially has no effect because the exhaust pulsation depends on combustion, and there is no combustion if the reed stays closed. So you open the throttle a little more... and a little more... and then at some point there will be enough fresh mixture in the cylinder to get it firing again. But now the throttle is wide open.... Maybe you can manage that on a bucket but I have seen more than one 500 cc GP-rider flying high in such a situation. Ouch...
Hey guys, tz i have been away for a bot how are you going with that cvt setup. Happy to help you where I can. Do you still want to get hold of some cases
