The US820 Thread.... Go 2-Strokes!

Yeah I know what you mean. But when your very nervous about being in a new car that your almost laying down in with a new engine and all its pretty scary when the car get's a mind of it's own at 85 MPH. I had to let out of the throttle and get it back in the groove and mash the pedel again. The next pass we told the tower that where going to do a massive burnout to try to get the oil's off the tire's. Cause normally during a burnout Junior Dragster's are not permitted to burnout past the staging beam's. We only have about 60 ft to do a burnout and with a big motor like me it's tempting to light up them tires for 100ft or so.

Kinda more buried under stuff than I remember.

56K GTFO!

He had an adapter machined so the sno-mo engine would take a plain old 3/4" bore cent clutch.

Takes a MONSTER plug

poor shot of clutch/brake

[jr dragster T]

Whoa and I thought my garage as messy.

 

[Kenny_McCormic]

You aint seen nothin yet.

 

[jr dragster T]

Lol let's see more.

 

[Kenny_McCormic]

Lets not and say we did, Lewis and Clark would have problems navigating this place.

 

[jr dragster T]

How much HP does the sno-mo motor make?

 

[Kenny_McCormic]

I was told around 12

You guys havenlt seen my garage...Cool engine, but they didn't make sleds in the 50's. Its 1960's+. It sucks driving a dirtibike in snow when your dirtbike is tall...ive eatin ice a few times lol...

 

[jr dragster T]

It sucks driving a dirtibike

Then dont lol XD

 

[Kenny_McCormic]

Dirt bikes in snow are FUN! Perhaps its newer, IDK, all I know is its 250cc and has a 30mm 10:1 tapered shaft(the PTO size on most sled engines).

 

[crazycart]

Its fun if you have a bike that's short and easily controllable when sliding out. I need to stud the tires.

 

[jr dragster T]

Yeah I hear ya. Think my bikes too long? The front end on my bike seem's to me fairly long.

 

[Kenny_McCormic]

Lol the back tire on my kawi nearly bald. Fun to peel out and slide it around at low speed.

 

[crazycart]

Yeah its just a lot harder with a taller bike to keep it upright. You guys should see my 490, the things huge. My IT200 is about the size of a 250 XR/XL and the 490 is quite a bit bigger than that even.

 

[jr dragster T]

That's neat. The rear tire on my bike is brand new and the front look's almost new.

 

[crazycart]

Yeah my 490 is gunna need a new rear soon. The 490's are known for roosting rocks not dirt...

 

[jr dragster T]

Lol I think your 490 will roost anything loose.

 

[crazycart]

Yeah if the rear tire doesn't the vibration sure as hell will. I gotta get a new piston for that thing and get a video. I found a head mod for it where you cut the edge in the head at a 30* angle 8mm deep and it makes the bike run better and easier to jet. Yamaha messed up with the head when they made that engine, its just a bored out 465 and they left the head alone instead of matching it to the new bore.

Hey, One question. How often do you lubricate your chain? I know on motorcycle's even on the nice pretty street's have a pretty strict lubrication cycle.
