    Shed built bike frame, welding T45 to bright mild.

    in Trick Frames

    Posted

    Keep the heat at minimum. I like to use greater gas flow when working with tube joints. Tack weld it properly. Maybe the most important thing is a good fit up. When it sits nicely the heat imput is lower and there is less tension. If it is mine I would purge it. Maybe unnecessary but I like to do so.

    I am also planning to build my own frame in the future. At the moment I am planning a frame jig for the project.

    Right, that doesn't seem to work because the boostmeter is totally hapless and indicates randomly. Back 2 the plenum it is then. 

     

    It runs rich on transition now, I think it will clear up when I up the boost. Laterssss.

    Have you connected all the vacuum lines from the carbs together? Usually that helps and gives steady readings.

    If you want a better looking switch gear use ktm exc ones. Those are tiny and way better looking than any sportbike bulky ones. It has everything except kill switch.

    Budget engine build

    Planning to build myself a 7/11 again. Because stock stuff sucks I want to get some extra grunt from the engine. So I want some advise from you guys.

    Budget in mind, don't want to spend all my money this time:D So do I go with good old 1127 and just ignition, exhaust and mikuni rs's? Or bandit with similar mods? Maybe 1127 with 750 head?

    What would be best bang for the buck and I don't want to hear anything about hayahayayahabusa pistons please:stop:

    Suggestions for a turbo charger

    in Forced Induction

    For journal bearing turbo you need to make a take off plug that goes in place of the oil light switch. The idea is that the plug takes all the oil flow coming from the filter, bleeds oil to the engine through a restriction hole and feeds the turbo before the restriction. This increases pressure high enough for the turbo. I can dig up dimensions for the plug a bit later on.

    Dig up those dimensions. There might be someone else who like to see them :D

    No spacers under the cylinder. You just won't get 112 degrees without a pin jump. Maybe it is possible in different setup. Every engine build is unique ;)
