  1. thanks Matt, i love it too haha. looking to get full black plastics then it should look less weird and more awesome ;-)
  2. first dibs on gas tank - pending pictures
  3. I Will take the bumper. I'll pm you details.
  4. Thanks for the update. Also having a similar issue here with flatslides. This is helpful. Sent from my OMNIA7 using Board Express
  5. just to let you know it is an ignition problem, as soon as i plugged the key switch back in and disconnected the tether it started and stays running. the dyna cdi does deliver spark (as in the videos) even when the switch is off, yet with the ignition on it continues. really happy i got this solved (with the help of BVHdevelopments)
  6. still the same......... flat side of the needle is facing the motor. i don't know why it fires up but stalls immediately. the bike seems quieter because the accelerator cable was holding the carbs a bit higher in the previous video, I have taken the cable off and put the slides only on the idle screws for this video. I have also put the original coil and wires on and it does the same. So it’s not the Nology coil or hot wires. I have done a leak down test and it holds 6psi all day long. I’m really stumped
  7. Just phoned Dennis @ Packard racing and he reckons i'm running lean so i will try richen up in the morning and post feedback. any other suggestions welcome.
  8. hi all, i have put together my 4 mil finally and have done a leak test and its all good. i have a strange starting problem though, see the video below it wants to start but dies, no amount of throttle will keep it up. i have lectrons and have set them according to Dennis Packard which should be correct. what do you think the problem could be or what can i try? compression is perfect (115psi @ 5000ft), spark perfect (nology coil & hotwires) i can kick it like that all day and it will keep doing just that all the time till the pipes get warm but it wont stay on... thanks in advance
  9. 4mill Motor completely built, now to strap it in this weekend!

  10. is it possible to upload anywhere else as you have to register/pay to download now on 4shared? maybe rapidshare.com?
  11. got my R2's powder coated today :-)

  12. Bought a clutch from Nasty and was well packaged and arrived fast and secure to South Africa. Great Seller - Thank you
  13. thanks cattledog, that is very kind of you. i have had a reply from Dennis Packard, i will post it below incase it helps anyone and id also be interested to see what FBG has to say. Dennis Packard on my setup and tuning- I would recommend 4-2 needle and setting the needles at 51.8 MM. This measurement is taken from the tip of the needle to just off of the side of the brass insert on the bottom of the slide. So, in other words, you need to be on the gray colored slide material in arriving at the measurement. I don't know what kind of ajustment system you have for the power jets. If it is a fixed power jet with interchangeable Mukine pilot jets, for your altitude, I would start with a number 30. Because of your altitude (6000 ft), you will probably need to lien the needle from the 51.8 setting by approximately 1/2 turn. That means by turning the needle in the fully extended position 1/2 turn counterclockwise. Remember, the flat part of the needle always has to be facing the motor. This is achieved by pushing the needle in with your fingers and turning it to that position. In doing this, it doesn't change the tuning because the whole mechanism internally spins. all mods are in the first post above - everything i know anyway :-) will get back to you on the tire sizes. thanks all for the help, really nice to have decent people willing to lend a hand
  14. guess i will have to phone dennis as noone has got back to me from FBG or Packard
  15. heres hoping he can find the time to reply to an email :-) otherwise ill have to sit up at a random time one evening and call.
  16. thanks for the reply! Lectrons in South Africa are non existent, no-one knows about them which makes support or supplies rare and difficult. (yet rare which is why i want them!) i have sent Dennis a few emails as well as the guys from FGB (sales) with no reply as yet. thanks again and i hope to get more feedback to steer me in a direction.
  17. Hi I have a set of 38mm Lectrons from fast by gast that I bought off "tz racin" I believe it has a power jet or dial a jet I need help getting the correct needle for my setup please. As I’m based in South Africa I want the best chance of getting the correct needle first time rather than having to purchase multiple needles when there is only 1 Please see my setup below and recommend which needle I should get. 4mm 115 Hotrod crank trued and welded Set of Rocket R2 pipes 38 Lectrons Fast by gast with Dyna-tech FS Programmable CDI Adj timing plate set to +4 Vforce 2 Reed Valves 4mm dune port cylinders 65.5mm Pro Design Coolhead (19cc custom cut for 4mm port) Tors Removed Air box lid off Snorkel off 6000 ft above sea level If you need any other info, please don’t hesitate to ask.
