want it to run even better? remove your stock exhaust cans, look at the intake and drill and cut out the catalizers. then reboot the ecu with the batt disconnect/throttle twist 3 times, reconnect batt and let warm up. mine runs way better and accelerates quicker. your vids have alot of good info, keep posting. I was going to go back to a souped up dr650 until I got my terra running better

Kawasaki kxf250 2007 . sostituzione pistone, dopo 20 ore valvola piegata, sostituita, dopo 3ore di rodaggio non sta al minimo e scoppietta esageratamente. Dico al meccanico che la regolazione valvole forse non é corretta , questo prima di piegare la valvola , ma dice di no......credo sia fuori fase o cose simili; come abbia fatto per due volte di fila e non riesca a venirne a capo non so .....,😒

How did you measure the taper of the piston for making the mould for this?
@Gizmowerks3 ай бұрын
Good question! Short answer is from modeling off old existing piston. Long answer: Measure skirt diameter, distance from skirt to top of piston, top of piston diameter, then finally connect the diameter points two dimensional to “vanishing point”. All that would give you the angle at the point theoretical convergence. As for thermal expansion my best guess

I can’t see how much that is off but I proved that the top dot is slightly off from factory in one of my videos with lazer and my bike runs great. The timing in the book is explained differently on the dots with the top of the head and counting cam chain pin links.

Hey man, I have a question. If the factory size jet is 38, but you ended up with a 52, what happened? Is there some other issue that made it necessary to change the jet size? Did you also have to change out the main jet too? Ok I had 3 questions.
@Gizmowerks6 ай бұрын
I think the confusion is this carburetor was not OEM but sold as an incorrect replacement.
@sweetfender66 ай бұрын
Exactly. I'm in the same boat. My bike didn't come with an OEM carb, so I bought a clone. At first it ran way too rich, then I set the needle clip to the 2nd from top position. Now it does just like the bike in the video.

Best way to assess top dead center is to take two points before and after tdc at the same distance (5mm / 1/4") and then to take the middle. Much more accurate...

@Gizmowerks Жыл бұрын
The ramp/pan cams over with the weight of the tail wheel and hits a bolt stopper in a slot. To keep it locked in that slot another nut is run down finger tight. That way the plane can be pushed or pulled in either direction. I got lucky with the pivot point angle. Good luck with your project, keep it simple

Yes, absolutely but it depends on what you call a long ride. There are tons of bikes available for specific needs and the Tr650 doesn't come to mind for double up riding comfort. It could be done I am sure. After 7 consecutive days riding on the bike my friend broke his chain. I threw my pack off the pillion and he rode on back the 30 miles required to get help. Handled fine haha

Really enjoying these vids, have been doing similar stuff to my also newish TR650. Check out the SW-Motech engine guards they go on in five minutes and will protect the radiator for certain. Mounts to the upper side engine mount near the head and the top bolt of that lower central engine mount. The Happy Trails skid plate is a tank if you decide to buy one instead.
