I took a lot of ping on there as well as a MOD. "Rattraysx". Haven't been there for years.

Well today saw a little improvement. But still not pulling clean. Still a hesitation at 1/4 - 1/3rd throttle openings and won't continue to accelerate without giving it a handful. 23 degrees C <1000ft ASL 35 pilot (1 3/4 turns out air screw) 42-74 Position 3 480 main. Not adjusted the power valve yet. Also thought I read in the...

I have cut about .4mm out. So a 4.4 at the minute. Will go to a 5 over the next few days and test again.

Well, decent improvement. Bike pulled hard through the mid range and up top. A little rich down low (loading up the plug slowly). Still have a hesitation about 1/4 - 1/3rd throttle but not major like before. Temperature wise its up to 26C from about 22C last time out. So that might have contributed to the slight improvement. Next, will...

Just jumping in on this thread. Bought a NOS TC125 for my 16 year old daughter and straight away the jetting is miles off. Have filed a bit off the slide and will do so slowly as I am struggling to find the right dimension for a number 5.0 2.1 hours on the bike lowered 30mm front and rear Gearing...

Adam's interview was great considering how poorly prepped the presenter was. To the untrained masses that actually might spark some interest, very palatable to the younger youtube generation.

Shell power 99 is about the same as 93-95 in the states. Different scales for knock. RON vs AKI (RON+MON/2)

Got mine. Finished 3960th in the world. Didn't play too much this time round. Just made sure I was comfortably in the the top 10% in case I didn't play it much.

Full diamond grips. Size M/L gloves for reference. Finding gloves that fit snug but have little to no tightness around the wrist area. Making your bars fit perfect so that your hands rest very naturally and even pressure across the palms. For me as a midget 5ft 8". I use Zeta 19mm bar risers on my KTM with the mounts...

Track is a relative freeway just now. Let's see how close the top 10 times pan out as it gets a bit rougher.

Judging by the 10-15k AUD on old 500's here in Perth and 5-8k on well used 07 125's & 250's. I reckon 12-15k for a collector is about right. There are a few adverts on Gumtree willing to pay 15-20k for never ran 500's which are more desirable. My 07 250 has less than 20 hours from new and is...

Does your mate have a website / facebook page to show stock etc.

Assuming a top 10 450 rider needs to earn enough to pay his way as a privateer with no sponsorship or contingency monies. If every rider qualifies for the night show gets his $250 back circa 10k per round. Paying positions in the top 20 would be fairly scaled like below. 20 250 19 500 18 750 17 1000 16...

chain torque and how much the rear of the bike squats. Changes both how much travel you have and the dampening characteristics and how stiff the rear is.

Gary, Having used Scott Gardiners suspension for 10 years or so. He does have some good settings. Just be fair with the speed you quote and what you want. I now live in Australia and have used another good local pro who has been tuning for 20 + plus years and the suspension is very similar. Most Tuners use the...

Ideally unclassified race first and spin a few laps. Or Track walk the first 1/2-1 mile. Good aggressive start and then ride a wide bike for the rest of the first lap. Its hard coming from a 30th place start on the first lap as the top 10 will be gone. If you can hold with the top 10 in...

Speaking from personal experience, hitting 28 I started to question pushing it as hard as I could at my level and taking additional risks. especially with 2 young kids. I honestly think that with all extreme sports that have high risk factors you peak not at your physical peak, but somewhere close to when the mental aspect kicks in for...
