Decompression device by Larry Wiechman
Hawkeye58:
I received my Head back from Larry Wiechman Friday. When I first layed eyes on it I was amazed at his fine work.
Larry is a great customer oriented individual, It was pleasure to do business with him.
This head with his machine work and the welding is a thing of beauty!! I'm almost done with assembly and intend to do my warm up cycles probably today after work.
Hawkeye58:
Hi again,
Now that I have had the engine together and did my break in I am getting aquainted with how the decompression device works and performs.
So far, it does exactly as advertised. The stroke feels like a 125 or 250.
Once the first ignition occurs the valve closes and the engine performs flawlessly.
The vent does put a bit of residue on the elbow, but, that cleans right off at the end of the ride, during bike washing.
I would recommend this upgrade to anyone!!
