Im stoked I can not wait to put the bike back together. Kevin Herr did the port work http://www.herrjugsracing.com/

 

He is recommending 350 - 340 -330 main jets - im also installing VF3 reeds and K&N pods instead of the single K&N and I have Toomey T-5's. Oh yeah installing a Noss Head w/ 19 cc domes and advancing timing to +6 should be good times. =)

 

I have all the gaskets and everything that I need (hopefully) for the install. I hate having to run to the motorcycle shop once I start working on something and then they dont have it in stock or I have to drive far to a place that does and its a 2 hour adventure.

hows the porting?

 

Don't know yet =(

 

 

Sounds good. Let us know how the porting works out. Also check your compression! It sounds pretty close to needing race fuel.

 

He said I should be okay with 100 octane OR 110 mixed with 50% 91 octane which is the premium on the pumps here in San Diego.

 

DAMNIT!!!! I don't have a compression check tool... I have read about it and they recommend getting a quality one. They are like $60 right? Maybe my brother will go in 1/2 with me on one because he needs one to because he is porting soon as well. So when I check the compression i'll be able to tell what type of gas to use?

Well its good to check for more than one reason, but if you dont have one, I would say running straight 110 would be fine for now. You might end up only needing 50/50? I would say over 160 is really a need for race gas. You can get cheaper testers for around $35-40 in an auto store although they may not be as accurate? If it were me and I just rebuilt my engine I would wait until I could check it properly :cool:

Im pretty much doing the same thing. Mine are being ported by dean sundahl! :biggrin: Amazing top end. Ive ridden a bike with his port job on it. +5 timing, 20 cc domes(pro design cool head, pro-lites, 340 mains, trued and welded crank, v-force 3s, 6in pods, etc. He claims 70 hp on stock carbs. Im so excited for my build up. Good luck on yours! :thumbsup:

that is about all that my bike is going to have so I should be close to that HP hopefully. The only things my bike wont have that your does is a trued and welded crank. Im using 19cc domes through. What type of gas does your builder recommend?

I wouldnt worry about HP numbers. Just make sure you have the power where you want it and youll be happy. That's what i did. Some love drag ported stuff and all but i love my all around bike :biggrin:
