[QUOTE="SRAD97750, post: 34200, member: 425"] We stripped the bike back down to nothing. This entire bike had light rust on the surface so we wire wheeled this frame and swingarm to death. Covered the bearings and mating surfaces with tape. Shot gloss black and waited till tacky. Shot 3 coats of gloss clear coat. We also clearcoated the sunburned green fairings. It brought a nice shine to them. Why paint it? I'm just going to dip it in mud tomorrow!!! Corrosion prevention on welds and scratches. Also, dust and grease have nothing to stick to, and I'll be able to hose it off after a nice dirty ride.

Looks way better. Ready for some SNEEZE stickers. Newest MOD: Threw a K&N cone filter on the 20mm carburetor because it was sucking some amount of dirt in. Totally lost the (already short/breathless) top end power due to further intake restriction. On the other hand the VERY bottom end is vauge now. The mid range grew by 1K rpms twords the top end. It feels like its slower and as if I need to shift quicker. Despite my doubts, the motor is easier to use now throughout the extended mid range. Down nearly 5 seconds from the end of break in. I have been recording lap times around this track my brother and I made. We know the track very well and our reported times on this thread are averaged over 3 rolling laps (No drag/holeshot starts, as it would make times less reliable/accurate). 11/11/09 With no air filter, open header, 20mm carb, 20psi tire pressure, and 75F sunny, 5 eng hrs. (44.5 sec) 11/30/09 K&N cone filter, open header, 20mm carb, 12psi tire pressure, and 71F overcast, 12 eng hrs. (39.6 sec.) Tire pressure and engine break in really chopped the time down. I firmly believe the new engine braking and fat mid makes it easier to ride fast, so it feels so much slower. I'm super happy with this base setup. I could ride it for years like this. But... I want more top end. Period. I ride streetbikes and I want more top end rush. Let's just say, down the straights its no drag bike. I have a Mikuni 30mm and in the mail is a 38mm Mikuni ($9.99ebay). A large set of Mikuni jets ranging from 20-55pilot and 120-300 main. ($100ebay) Hopefully this will satisfy all my cravings.
