Maintenance & Technical > KX500 Aluminum Frame Conversion (AFC)

Bad experience with Wossner pistons...

<< < (9/9)

cobbs:
yes I'm using two nozzles into a straight K&N (no airbox) and I'm going to make a little aluminum box to hold the 9.6v battery so I can just plug the charger into the aluminum box without have to remove it I'm still trying to figure out how a clean way to mount the bottle and. I'm using stock reeds cause I previously herd that about the vforce with nitrous unless you have a better suggestion of something I should try using

I've used boysen with decent success. When I ran my 500 on Nitrous I used a titanium rod, seen many spit the rod out the bottom on Methanol. 50hp would scare me, not the ride the relability. two nozzles shotting 25hp each will consume a pretty sizeable amount of NOS, you using a 2.5 bottle? Some guys remove one radiator, seems like a bad idea to me, I used 12 oz bottles and change them every pass, they are mounted in front of the radiator off to the shroud side.

cobbs:
I have a couple bottles and I think I'll try the 12oz bottle too just because this is more for fun than anything and I  don't think I  should get to carried away (plus if I have to we have a refill setup) its also just to feel the power difference it will only be used in the sand doing some drag racing  I would never think of using that much power on the street( my bike is street legal) or dirt with out a seriously extended swing arm like you or a wheelie bar, I'm actually thinking of fabbing up a wheelie bar set up to see what kind of 1/4mile time I could get out of one of these single cylinder beasts I bet I could get LOW 9s maybe faster 

don46:
by the way, the 9.6v battery is a little weak if the ambient temp is high causing high bottle pressure, I use two 7.2 in series and have never had a problem with this setup.
