Title: Sly's ride
Post by: Arigato on June 30, 2006, 05:26:28 AM

I just finished ordering all the motor parts for FuriouSly's bike.  It's fun spending other people's money.  I dropped his motor off the other day at a friend of mine who's very handy with a grinder.  Sly's bike will be SICK!

Yeahhh...  Looks like the motor should be back around Aug 2nd.  Too Cool.  Let's see, ported head, jug, and carb.  Welded and balanced crank.  New piston, bearings, seals and clutch.  High compression and running on 112 leaded race gas...  Sounds Like Fun  :evil:  All put together by the old school/new age master Art L.

Funny, but I think Arigato has that sticker trademarked for himself   :-P  But if I put it on my front fender, he probably won't notice it since he will be in my roost . .  lol   :roll:

A little update on the motor...  Sweeetttt ! !   Ton of power and smooth as silk.  Ported jug, head decked, new piston-seals-bearings, high comp on race gas, kevlar clutch with big springs and steel plates, Boyesen rad valve, welded and balanced crank, ported PWK carb with other goodies.  Runs like a monster.  Almost all of the engine vibration (80%) is gone due to the balanced crank.

The stock PWK carb is ported to around 40.5mm with some other on-the-down-low things done. Notice the gap between the slide and the throat/barrel of the carb? You can see through to the other side.  Idles like a four stroke,  pop didy pop pop ! !  Did I mention I like idle?  Work done by our local grinder extraordinaire, ArtL.  Special Thanks to Arigato for getting everything done for me!  I just gave him the cash and Poof!  New motor for me, thanks bro!
