Hey, in the top photo are you drag racing? How did you get the bike to squat? Different shocks or just springs and preload? How fast (1/8 mile?) is the ole' KX?
Dig the Banshee picture too.

both sons take turns riding depending on work.i actually got on him a little about the shirt.he should be in a tuck.the shirt acts as a parachute.mun the pipe is a jemco 1/2 mile pipe.47'' long from inside cylinder down to last cone.stinger is 9'' long 1.00" inside dia.center chamber is 14"circum.have one for yz250 i want to try.gonna try 44 lectron tomorrow.right now i have to redo a cr500(don't hate) cylinder that just got sleeved and its way off from existing ports.if son will show me i will try to load a video clip.just tell me proper place to post.

Sweet! I hope the guy on the brute force didn't think of giving you a run for your money. :evil: Are you using an outboard starter on that beast? I would love to know a little more about the motor work and what kind of fuel you are running. :mrgreen:

Younggunnaz,
What needles and powerjet do you use on Lectron 44mm?
Fast by Gast told me 7-1 XL and 70 PJ would be near the truth. :|

yes we do use a outboard starter.compression now is at 240psi.squish is .040.the lectron came with a 6-1 rod back in 1992.just put it on this year.ran it with a 6-2 this weekend but fast by gast guy said it was to rich for single cylinder two stroke.so he sent me a 5-2xl which i haven't tried yet.gonna do some mods to rad valve first to see if i can increase flow and velocity some.sonoco 116 fuel with klotz r50 40:1.
