[Hoosier Daddy]

10-4 brother! wait till the SFTL league comes down.. ill have the dice..

WELL I STILL LIKE MY FUZZY DICE IDEA! BASTARDS!!

I will hang some off mine just for you Chris

I dare ya.  remember i will have the video camera.

Come on Smokey, you know Ill hang them  off the bumper...

I HAD A MOTOR WITH 17CC DOMES AND THE SQUISH WAS AT.042 AND THERE IS NO WAY THAT IS A PUMP GAS MOTOR. a motor set up right with 17cc domes is going to have at least 190 to over 200psi of compression. THAT IS NOT A PUMP GAS MOTOR!
my last 350 motor had 17cc domes in it with 220psi of compression, but this motor was built for mx racing or trail riding.

drag racing- lower comp. so the motor revs up quick
trails and mx- high comp for low end power to come out of coners and such.....

that orange bike has some compression, and my calf muscle will tell ya that.

Kick over a 370 (250r)with hi compression... you cant do it with tennis shoes on that for sure.. dang near breaks your foot...

no $hit.  I went to crank the orange crush and troy said it has some compression.  first kick I couldn't even kick it all the way down.  now I have to jump and kick it to get it started.

oh you hanging em from the bumper and them videos will be all over photobucket.

i went to start mine and i thought i broke my foot . i had to put a motorcross boot on and it still hurt like hell. this thing loves to kick back.
i cant wait until chris tries to kick it. i going to laugh my a$$ off

sure hope he doesn't stall out, your going to have to come and crank it for him.

You think that is bad? Try kicking a single 524cc cylinder with 170psi. I sprained my ankle (down for 3 weeks) using tennis shoes when it kicked back one time. Now I have a thin piece of steel in the sole of my boots when I ride. But its the greatest built in alarm system ever!  People ask if they can ride it and I say sure if you can start it. 

Granted I don't turn the rpms that you guys do but I did use 93 octane with 170psi and it ran fine. I use 100 now cause I changed pipes and increased rpms. Just for the safety factor. 

535- You mentioned that in drag racing use low compression. Speaking from a automotive perspective all the high rpm N/A motors use high compression. I can understand the reason for low compression in relation to less resistance in generating rpms but would it affect the rpm capability that much to make a difference? Just curious. Thanks. -Mark

That's a good point.  It might have to do with the drag cars having 8 cylinders, and they're able to overcome it a little better.  Like a single cylinder can't run with super high compression unless the flywheel is very heavy and can compress everything on the compression/intake stroke.  I would guess it's not as bad in a two cylinder, because when one is on it's power stroke, it's forcing the other piston, compressing the air/fuel.  And when you go to 8 cylinders, it's even less a problem, so you can run higher compression.  That's just an idea, don't know if that's correct.

Has any one used or heard of this timming plate before as it is so cheap it may be no good (see link abv.)? How far can i advance the timming on pump gas? Thoughts?

Also have you heard about the new 500cc banchee for 2008 see the attached pic. Not a four stroke fan but if i had to buy one that would be the one!

no, dirtwheels is playing a trick on their readers as usual. there will be no 4 stroke banshee

[dynodon]

Thats an average price for that plate. I wouldnt go farther than +4
