The great thing about xr400's is that they are simple and reliable, forced induction would end that. Kinda cool though!

Anyone have a clarke or ims tank to suit a xr4 also a quiet end cap to suit standard muffler(ballads or b&b)?

Cheers

There's a cool vid somewhere of a Yamaha turbo set up for Dakar, then they changed the rules and it came to naught.

I owned a Yamaha XJ650 Turbo for a while, it was a heap of fun, seems kinda strange turbocharging bikes didn't really take off. It did drink fuel though

changed the jetting around on the pig today... after the rebuild a couple of years ago i went from stock jets up to the scott summer one's 155/68 and it still felt a little restricted so today i put in 160/70 i figure with the O/S slug, airbox mods and the open sorst it needed more juice.... well fuck me it worked pulls harder than a school boy now, i even managed to get the front up in 2nd and 3rd with the highway gearing, seems to start/idol better to.

speedo only goes to 150 and it pulled to that so im happy

150... are you breaking the law??

haha, my piggie does an indicated 160, i'm sure it's nowhere near accurate up there but those sort of speeds on the dirt and you forget about all the times you been lying under it on a firebreak
