Hi Steve, I was hoping to get with JH without going through the shop, but its difficult tieing up with him. There are 2 places in Aylesbury Road & Track and Chris woods I think is the other. Yours mine and Sennas must be very comparible I would say.

That'll be Dave Woods in aylesbury the one currently racing a KTM. I was hoping to get over there but it futher to travel making it harder to fit in before Snett, where as i could possibly go to Grant's on the way home from work if I take the van with the bike in the back.

Dougie at work takes his 2-strokes to Road & Track and is happy with the results

And the results of Todays Dyno run on GP Performances (Thanks for the discounted price Grant) Fuchs Dyno

Max power was found to be at 8820rpm

Where thr figures are

Crankshaft = 65bhp
Gearbox = 61.9bhp

and the all important
Rear wheel = 59.4 thats better

The Majority of the votes were for 59, followed closely by 60 so spot on guys and gals.

There is still room for improvement as the power curve tails off above 7k as the mixture goes first rich and then weak

[rossco572]

well done kev, so what are your plans to cure the mixture problems then? A custom map for the PC3 maybe, or swap it for a pc4 or 5 and idividually tune each cylinder? oohh!!! the expence hurts already!!!

[bradders]

great result kev! maybe I will try it again at cadwell...!

Already started down this route Ross

On the Dyno today I had the PC running an advanced Zero Map
Since bringing the bike back home I have reworked the map taking a little fuel out of both cylinders from 7k rpm upwards.
after doing that I have changed the rear cylinder exhaust header to one with a Lambda probe in and fitted my Hallmeter air/fuel indicator to the bike.
Hopefully while crusing at wide open throttle down the back straight at Snetterton on Sunday I can get some indication of how to tweek the map to improve things even more.
Monday I'll swap the Air/fuel monitor for the lap timer and see how I'm doing in the real world

Still like to put it on the same Dyno Pro dynometer that it went on at Donington in March and Castle Combe in 2007 to see what that reads

Mine is just set up blind really, trial and error..lol
I would like to know if it's fueling right as I've not a clue!

I didn't waste money on a dyno. Just let a guy that knows what he's doing set it up. Nelly took a bag of sheet and returned a competetive bike.
