2strokespirit Posted December 12, 2010 Report Share Posted December 12, 2010 Is there enough meat in the water gallorys to drill and tap a temp sender or even case a spot there for future barrels? IS this a good place to put it apart from the top hose with a joiner fitting? I would rather put it in the cylinder head..... I am also looking into tapping my head for this.... Would like to fit a VDO mechanical gauge, only issue is the vibration... There are other gauge as well that can take the vibration.... It has been discussed on here....

AKheathen Posted December 19, 2010 Report Share Posted December 19, 2010 x2. there might be meat, but most likely it will be by the exhaust, which could read abnormally high, instead of mean temp......still concidering the nic.........it was you, dave, that mentioned coolant beaing able to instantly pit the plating, so that's what i'm going off of. i ride mostly trails to get to my favorite hill-climbs, and my rides can go for 4 days, since i do 3weeks on-3off and don't have to stick to normal week-ends. i bring a bunch of tools and supplies with me so i can fix shit that breaks, from flywheel coming off, to whatever. i'd like to know i can go back to camp and replace an o-ring and keep going, if i ever have to......can you tell me- what is the likelyhood that a blow o-ring would screw up the plating, in all honesty.....1:100, 1:10, 3:4? i'm just worried about having to pack it up for a long peroid for something so simple...... if i can really get the life you claim out of it, that would be great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snopczynski Posted December 19, 2010 Report Share Posted December 19, 2010 Mr. Gasket Thermo cap. If the radiator level drops and the bulb is not submersed in coolant due to a leak, you'll know it before you would with a leaking o-ring and a sender in the head.

gizmoman Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 Will these cylinders still make power with 28mm carbs or will they be starved i need to know because im either going ported stk or serval 4mils. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fastassbanshee96 Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 They will still make power just not as much as it would with bigger carbs. I think you'll just make more power down low. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forcefed Posted March 7, 2011 Report Share Posted March 7, 2011 42 pilot + CEL needle's in the middle - 1 main size = wholesome goodness in the midrange & 200 rpm increase up top Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forcefed Posted March 7, 2011 Report Share Posted March 7, 2011 Dropped the needle a notch ... nice 35mm PWK A/S (the airstryker version may be using a slightly smaller pilot & needle clip position) 42 Pilot CEL Needle one clip leaner from middle position 158 Main K&N in the box +5 on the plate BR8ES 60* - 900' 93 Oct 40:1 SuperTechniplate VF-3's Inframe CPI's Untouched ports - nikasil flashing still on all port openings Custom Domes by Titan 14/41 gearing Uncut flywheel Touch on the richer side on just the main jet due to the airbox ... fixing to put the pods back on ... otherwise would have dropped main to 155. Putting a Dyna on it shortly & will have a set of my curves loaded into it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirtydownunder Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 nice one forcefed !!! you have highish cranking compression as well and +5 on the plate with 93. that makes me feel better, i though these things didnt like either (comp and timing). what cc are your domes ?

Snopczynski Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 I rode one yesterday and they pull really hard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fastassbanshee96 Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 I rode one yesterday and they pull really hard. How was it setup? Carbs, pipes, domes, timing.... I just had a 4mil long rod serval built but haven't gotten to drop it in yet cause I'm still in the process of building the rest of the bike but really want to know how it is. I'll be running 35mm pwk a/s, R2 pipes, +4 timing , 22cc domes on pump gas. I think it should run pretty damn good but we will see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forcefed Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 19 ish .... would have to get with Titan Tim for the specifics on C/R & MSV ... not my place to give out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirtydownunder Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 thats ok, just wanted to compare. your running less chamber cc, more timing and less octane gas. so im pretty dam safe !. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that cool. By chance does anyone have any video of these things running yet. I haven't been able to find anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camatv Posted March 10, 2011 Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 what the hell? guess i missed some stuff.. to me the serval just makes NICE power its power that a banshee should have and is going to make a LOT of average riders of banshees love their bikes all over again it is NOT a similar to stock porting layout and hence will work ok with std pipes BUT i can see eventually a serval only pipe will be produced along witha serval only head mostlikely like a CUB pipe and CUB dome.. if you want TQ and grunt low end power just buy a big bore 4 stroke.. but of course i like a bike thats fun like the banshee'ss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
