Lowroll Posted September 30, 2015 Author Report Posted September 30, 2015 I am not sure. It was supplied by Kevin. Next time around I will measure everything and make notes Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk Quote
Lowroll Posted September 30, 2015 Author Report Posted September 30, 2015 I'm going to call noss with all this first and get his take on the domes. I'm thinking that I might as well grab a fresh .020 base gasket too since I'm only 8 studs away. Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk Quote
Lowroll Posted September 30, 2015 Author Report Posted September 30, 2015 I've been somewhat disappointed ever since I checked compression after building it. Showed 130 new and 140 after 2 heat cycles. Maybe I don't know enough about all this yet but it seemed kinda low to me based on what I've read on here Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk Quote
Lowroll Posted September 30, 2015 Author Report Posted September 30, 2015 I might also call redline, I have read nothing but good things about the guys there. I called noss last week to ask about some of this and got no answer. Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk Quote
Lowroll Posted September 30, 2015 Author Report Posted September 30, 2015 I ran that for 10 gallons, the last mix was straight 93 once I came to my senses. I added the extra octane to combat the (at the time) 6 degree advance. I have no issue mixing fuel to get what I need, just want to avoid going straight 110 on a trail bike Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk Quote
Surfrjag Posted September 30, 2015 Report Posted September 30, 2015 if you check your base gasket that will tell you if its the problem. the only way your getting that squish measurement with those dome specs is with a way to big base gasket. you can call 10 people or just go check it... lol Quote
Lowroll Posted September 30, 2015 Author Report Posted September 30, 2015 I may very well pull the head and jugs tonight and get some measurements. Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk Quote
trickedcarbine Posted September 30, 2015 Report Posted September 30, 2015 Measure the deck height, distance the piston is sitting under the exhaust before dissasembling. Measure the base gasket after tear down. Curious what it is smushed at. Quote
Surfrjag Posted September 30, 2015 Report Posted September 30, 2015 tricked I said before its not going to tell you anything. what if he changed the exhaust port floor or what if he didn't.. you don't know Quote
Lowroll Posted September 30, 2015 Author Report Posted September 30, 2015 The hell with it, I'm busy the next 2 weekends so why not try to get it fixed now. I'll call Cam and get his opinion and see if he wants any other info and I'll tear into it tonight Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk Quote
Surfrjag Posted September 30, 2015 Report Posted September 30, 2015 I also want to say that if you got one of his cranks you may have saved a buck but its been known to be not the best quality. I have one in my garage now that came apart. Quote
Lowroll Posted September 30, 2015 Author Report Posted September 30, 2015 So I asked him specifically about the quality of his crankshafts and he assured me that his cranks were fine, not saying that's the truth, and at this point I'm not backing him due to these issues. What I have is certainly not a HR crank Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk Quote
sleeper06 Posted September 30, 2015 Report Posted September 30, 2015 I changed his cylinders out for a set I ported,IMO every hjr set up I've ever tuned didn't effective pull gear hard, they rev quick just never went anywhere. I have diffrent porting principles I go by and his porting is too far hogged out an far gone for me to be happy with low compression and conservative squish. Now take that same design set it on kill with big compression, good fuel , + 7 or so timing and bigger carbs you might get to where you wanna be. . Surf can hook u up for sure if not hit me up . With my porting I shoot for a turbo effect when u get on the pipe like you just added another cylinder either way you might end up spending another 600 but you will shake when u get off the bike 1 Quote
Lowroll Posted September 30, 2015 Author Report Posted September 30, 2015 Sleeper, that's what I want. A bike that borderline scares me everytime I ride it. Not saying it's a slouch right now, but I think she could be much better Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk Quote
Lowroll Posted September 30, 2015 Author Report Posted September 30, 2015 I was going to give Kevin a call later on also and give him a chance to chime in before I go anywhere else. I'll always let the manufacturer of something try to fix an issue before I blast them. Not my style. If fresh gaskets and domes get it right, that's fine. From now on I'll go elsewhere though.
