zach45 Posted June 24, 2013 Report Posted June 24, 2013 (edited) I'm looking for people with FIRST hand experience here.. I would like to know what kind of Riding you do, and what your water temps are.. Also what's your setup(pipes carbs jetting and portwork ) Thanks in advance Edited June 24, 2013 by zach45 Quote
sprinklerman Posted June 24, 2013 Report Posted June 24, 2013 1. Riding : Dune/some play dragging 2. Infared shows max of 180* on cyl in various spots., usually less 3. Setup : Redline ported 4mm Serval (90HP/50TQ dyno sheets in thread) CPI inframes, 39pwk/ 168M/DEL needle/55P *Note: this is not a ported "Serval" that has been turned into a Cub. The ports haven't been raised up,so it still has the broad power of a Serval. Hopefully that describes the power delivery for you. Also dyno sheets provided. Quote
dirtydownunder Posted June 24, 2013 Report Posted June 24, 2013 1) dune/trail WOT ! 2) fuck knows. 3) wildcard ported, not to cub specs, above serval. shearer, 34tm 290-270/50/5fp17/389q0. pump gas 12.58:1 Cr bike rips ! Quote
zach45 Posted June 24, 2013 Author Report Posted June 24, 2013 My riding style is alot of tight trails with some wide open spurts My setup is stock cast ports Pro circuits 28 pwk 155-55. I have to drop a size on my pilot My domes were cut by cam.. Not sure the specs on them.. Yesterday was around 90 degrees out and my water temp was staying at 212-215ish... One point it got up to 231.. I run a trail tech TTY temp gauge, and my bike never showed any of the symptoms of overheating.. It didnt piss any antifreeze out or sputter.. She ran good all day for me. I never had a temp gauge on any of my bikes so that all I could pay attention to yesterday.. Quote
dirtydownunder Posted June 25, 2013 Report Posted June 25, 2013 Yeh, that's why I don't have a gauge. Quote
camatv Posted June 25, 2013 Report Posted June 25, 2013 they should run in the 200-230 range on gas. thats if your moving well. less on race fuel ( but its a serval right/) Quote
zach45 Posted June 26, 2013 Author Report Posted June 26, 2013 Cam, I was running straight 114. I'm starting to think I need to jet up a bit... Quote
n2otoofast4u Posted June 26, 2013 Report Posted June 26, 2013 Why in the fuck would you run 114 on a serval? Quote
trickedcarbine Posted June 26, 2013 Report Posted June 26, 2013 Why not! As long as it is a motor designed to burn it. Compression and timing are titties! Quote
Finch Posted June 26, 2013 Report Posted June 26, 2013 Why run expensive fuel on something that your just riding around. Just to go on a ride gets expensive in a hurry. Quote
WINDYCITYJOHN400 Posted June 26, 2013 Report Posted June 26, 2013 Why not! As long as it is a motor designed to burn it. Compression and timing are titties! No they are not. You must have gone to the same internet engine school as Harry over at Trinity Racing..... Jacking compression and timing (more often than not) will just increase heat. These are not car engines. These are "Resonant motors". We're not building twin cylinder pipe bombs here...... Servals come set up for pump gas. Testing showed they don't like a lot of timing. You can modify them to be completely different....but if you wanted a motor so high strung that it needs 114.....why would you have gone with the Serval? What is the compression ratio on this motor?

sleeper06 Posted June 26, 2013 Report Posted June 26, 2013 Zachs motor is set up for pump gas 1 Quote
WINDYCITYJOHN400 Posted June 26, 2013 Report Posted June 26, 2013 Then why is he running 114? Running octane that high in a motor set-up for pump gas is actually lowering his power..... Quote
zach45 Posted June 28, 2013 Author Report Posted June 28, 2013 Then why is he running 114? Running octane that high in a motor set-up for pump gas is actually lowering his power..... Because I have 20 gallons that paid for that I might as well use.. Quote
