My skin also reflects the sun....... I would be interested in doing the shocks myself, but I will have to read about how you did yours. I am only proficient in the 1-6 beer range. I have not seen either valve design, but I can make you anything that you want as far as the CNC stuff goes. :baseball_santa:

If you want to stack your proposed degrees against mine, let's go at it. I have a BS in Vehicle Design and an MS in Mecahnical Engineering. I work for one of the world's premier racing organizations as a PMME. You have missed theone of the key points of intake system designe completely. The goal is to stuff the maximum amount of air that you can down in the the engine. This is not necessarly done by trying to make the largest opening possible (you may want to re-think your choice of minoring in physics). In any intake system, laminair flow through the tract is the key, but the air has to be below super-sonic speeds. Past super sonic speed, the air stalls and and begins to decrease flow throgh the system at an exponential rate. Needless to say, if the flow is not laminair, the flow through the system will stall at a much lower speed. As not to write a book on the subject, the priniciple used in the development of such systems is call "reasonant ram tuning". Additionally, I have been to both the Boyesen and Moto Tassarini facilities, Boyesen does development on their products including CFD trials. Moto Tassarini has some spread sheets and a flow bench that is older than I am. Aside from everyting else, ask yourself, who's reed system do you want in your bike? My entire arguement falls apart if you wind up with a 35mm carb or larger. That is the largest venturi system that the XL RAD Valves are designed for. If you're going bigger than that you need to be looking at some cylinder that accept 250cc dirt bike reeds and cages. Thank you, drive through. :baseball_santa:

I forgot whay the other problem was:..............................I don't care if it makes more hp than my old coil. Then Noligy coil just seems to work better in general. :baseball_mitt:

Yes, that's true, maybe the other three have tumors. You should cut them open and find out. :baseball_mitt:

I take it that you're the same type of person that swears that your boost bottle adds a ton of low end power. :baseball_innocent:

I have not recieved mine yet either. I'll give it another week before I raise hell. :baseball_bat:

I run 120 leaded when I am running race gas, but I been running alcohol for awhile now and I do not believe that I will go back to anything else. :baseball_bat:

Did this just start doing it or did you do something to aid this process along recently? :baseball_mitt:

More R&D goes into the Boyesen unit that the Moto Tassarini units. I have the oversizes RAD valves in my current dune motor. They made 4.5 more horsepower than the VF3's did on the dyno, but none one ever got beat by a dyno. :baseball_mitt:

I can strap it to my dyno board and run it back to back on another motor with the Noligy coil. The problem is, I do not have a new OEM coil. The OEM coil that I do have does check out ok on the primary and secondary windings. :baseball_innocent:

I think it did. I tried going there a week or so ago, and the url was not to be found. :baseball_mitt:

I agree. Plus, it gives you an excuse to go to Walmart and buy $100 of extra shit that you didn't plan on buying. I am not sure how I feel about the "fucky-tard" explicative though. :baseball_original:

Sweet! I think I shall go the Wolfpack route. I believe that the stock rear shock and the 450 fronts rival many of the high end aftermarket units in construction and design, but it's just a matter of getting them tuned and sprung correctly to what I am doing with them. :baseball_santa:

I concurr. :baseball_original:

Time for a new job or just move to France. :baseball_mitt:

I slip one of the guys from the race shop a 12 pack to change oil in my rig. :baseball_innocent:

Yep, my stock coil was old and gay, my new coil is shiney and has color matching wires. That right there is worth 2hp. I can take it to work tomorrow and see if I can get the engine on the dyno, but I am not sure that I care that much. It's starts easier for sure though. :baseball_bat: Hmmmmmmm. I see where I have gone wrong in my life, I transitioned from Red Bull to riding the white pony, as apposed to developing a meth habbit. Dammit, why do I always have to screw up! :baseball_innocent:

I am not sure about the price but I think I only paid like $47 for my new factory switch. :baseball_mitt:

This is the same thought process I am going through. I was hoping that someone smarter than I had an opinion about this so that I might be able to make a decision. :baseball_santa:

My wires are a little bit of a cluster at this point, I will have to see if I can do something better with them. I think I am going to have to get Brad to come over and clean my bike. I mean I thought it was clean ang shiney in there until I took that picture last night and then Brad posted his up right after me.

Since I pretty much only ride in the dunes I really can't decide on new shocks or the modified stockers. I was really interested if anyone had tried the midified YFZ shocks from Wolfpack. I think mist reoutable folks can do a good jobn fixing up the stoxk rear shock.

Al right now I know why no one wanted to take a picture of their setup. It's hard as hell to get a good picture taken down in there. I blew out my sandal in the process.

Your tire seems to have grown too much hair. I would shave it if I were you. Otherwise you might wind up with a hippie tire, or worse a yetti tire. Before you know it, it will take all of your other tires off and entertain them by blowing on a gourd. :baseball_bat:

I got sand in mine and it wore out the contacts. I bought the a new one from Yamaha. My thinking was that if this happened to mine, there would be alot worse to be had on eBay. :baseball_innocent:

Fullerton is great, ihave never bought anything from them, but I have gone with all my friends to buy tires there. THe folks there seem to have more a background in Skat Trak's than the guy I talked to in person at Skat Trak did.
