Nice looking cylinder head! That will be a fun bike to ride. Good luck

ChrisCoupe · « **Reply #8 on:** June 03, 2006, 03:42:11 PM »

Thanks guys..........i have been very patient with this build and hopfully its all gonna be worth it in the long run.........well mostly the 9/10ths and mile run......

Ill have more progress sometime next week......pics and should have some baseline dyno numbers.......

nemsis · « **Reply #9 on:** June 03, 2006, 03:55:11 PM »

looks good

but I would get better clutch springs I like the ones Brock sells but Motorheads and APE's are good too

also I would get the spencer clutch support bracket it's much stronger

http://www.spencercycle.com/Hayabusa_Clutch_Slave_Cylinder_Brkt_p/exo-1103.htm

what happened with the dry kit was that the one 469 Boy posted were the nozzle was mounted between 1 and 2 cylinders in the air box.

ChrisCoupe · « **Reply #10 on:** June 03, 2006, 05:39:24 PM »

Yeah thats the one .......still have the kit it but we relocated the nozzle to the correct area and we are upping the jets ...ill be spraying between a 60-80 shot .........on this set up.........havent changed out the rods yet so we are gonna stay right under the 300 mark with the spray..........when i change the rods ill be going with a wet system and better fuel system ......then aim for some real power.......

Right now it should pull through to be a mid 8 sec bike with the right seat time and set up but ill be doing alot more 9/10ths and mile runs with it........South Florida Home of 9/10ths !!!

nemsis · « **Reply #11 on:** June 03, 2006, 08:28:28 PM »

did you get any money from the guy that installed it?

ChrisCoupe · « **Reply #12 on:** June 03, 2006, 09:25:04 PM »

Nope......went through the bullshit mechanic fight.......he said that this guy wants your business and he is fucking yu and i knew that wasnt the case so after all the bullshit was over i basically said no sense in beating a dead dog.......but he lost in the long run because i had prolly close to 6-8 consistant customers that he will lose out on business in the long run......a few of them were gonna spend decent dollars this year too.......his fuck up and he couldnt even meet me half way........fuck him........when i get back to south florida im gonna try to hustle some money out of him by racing a few of his bikes that he built........ill get my money back one way or another......

ChrisCoupe · « **Reply #13 on:** June 11, 2006, 04:40:03 PM »

I just want you to know, I hold you personally responsible for making me want a 1397 now and having spent the last 48 hours researching the ins and out and asking ppl questons on how to go about it and what to do. DAMN YOU!

ChrisCoupe · « **Reply #18 on:** June 12, 2006, 11:39:09 PM »

mimic its a virus and its got yu to now.........

ChrisCoupe · « **Reply #20 on:** June 13, 2006, 01:13:09 AM »

as far as hp well rob thinks 210+.....matt wright says 215+...

....i just hope the fucker runs hard.......on the bottle well im trying to stay right under the 300 mark due to stock rods.....changing those when i go wet sooner then later.......

Compression with the head shaved and thin gasket will be around 13.1.......pistons are 12.8 forged JE's.......

As far as the bike in a whole......Lets just say rob is the fucking man.......and i mean whole......core to exterior......

......and for the most part yes the motor has been built from the ground up.......due to a nitrous fuck up ....been the best thing for it since i blew it a while back!!!!

.........all is good now

Engine stand well i held it all up by hand the whole build ....yup all myself......

.......yeah right!!!......again rob is the man!!!

M Wright · « **Reply #21 on:** June 13, 2006, 06:22:18 AM »

Looks great Chris, but don't get gready with that spray. Those stock rods won't hold 300 nitrous hp. You've built a nice little power plant. Don't cut it in half.

ChrisCoupe · « **Reply #22 on:** June 13, 2006, 12:33:57 PM »

just about finished..........
