Not a single person I know of opens a barn and proclaims weak valve springs will keep a graveyard vehicle down. It might float valves, it might miss, but it will run so send it if it's doomed to die.
@davelowets2 жыл бұрын
@@spacecadet0 Do you completely understand what can happen to a high-performance engine such as this, if it has weak valve springs? It can do MUCH more than just "miss" or "float valves". With the valve lift that this engine certainly has, the valves are awfully close to the pistons. With weak springs, the valves can EASILY kiss the pistons if the springs can no longer control them properly, ESPECIALLY at the RPMs that thes race engines operate at. That would instantly destroy the engine. With a normal "economy" or lower power OEM engine the much lower valve lift, lower engine speeds, and the engineers designing in more room for safety, a weak valve spring isn't a huge issue. But in an engine like this, it most CERTAINLY IS. 4 valve springs for a 2 cylinder is inexpensive, and there's NO reason NOT to do it.

Your story about your first fast bike reminds me of mine on a brand spanking new '87 Honda Hurricane 600 that belonged to the mechanic I took my car to as a kid. I was admiring the bike and he said, "You know how to ride?" I said I did, failing to mention that the biggest, fastest bike I'd ever ridden at that point was my uncles '70's something 250XR. Mechanic says, "Here, take it out and open it up." Yeah, he did, I kid you not. That was 30 plus years ago, the place was called "Master Tune" in Gallup, NM. I can still see the bike in my mind... yes, those first fast rides stick with you! I'd like to say I took it out and ripped up 66 on it (Highway 66 runs through Gallup), but I'd be lying. I got out on the road, slipped it into second and gently twisted the throttle and had my teeth pulled to the back of my throat. I idled the bike in second back to his shop and thanked him. He laughed and said, "Yeah, I'm scared of it too!"

@@bdr7557 I used to think that also, but then I found out first hand that they DO... My drag race big-block has a roller cam with close to .750 lift and valve springs with 850lbs of open pressure. I used to put it away for the winter without touching the valvetrain at all. One year when I pulled the car out of storage for the season, I noticed a head gasket leaking. I pulled the heads off to repair it, and figured I would give them a quick once over as long as they were off the motor. As I was checking the valve springs for tension, I noticed that they were all fairly close except for a few of them that were pretty far out of spec compared to the rest of them, I'm talking like by 50+lbs. I went back and looked at the position of the lifters in the short block as I hadn't rotated it since I removed the heads, and sure enough, every valve spring that was down on pounds lined up with every lifter that was up on the cam lobes. I now pull the rocker arms off when I put the car away for the winter, they are shaft rockers and I can take them on and off without even having to re-lash them.

After about a year of occasionally watching videos on here I finally found a reason to watch slightly more often (just for the laughs = lack of mechanical knowledge). Air Shifter inside the clutch cover?🤣 If you simply look at the Shift Lever you'll see the Air Ram that's bolted to it (and the frame)... And something you missed knowing/saying about the Destroyers is, there was a Destroyers only class in an all Harleys Drag racing series back then (I rode a mid-7 second Methanol Turbo HD that was only 103CID at those events) and one of the strictest rules in the Destroyer Class was you weren't allowed to modify the engine "to make more power" E.g. they always had a dyno at those events to check/confirm your Destroyer wasn't making more power...

@monkmoto18873 жыл бұрын
Yeah it should run high 9s. Pretty much any sport bike with a bit of suspension set up or a swing arm is running in the 9s. I’ve seen 600s scraping 9s and 1000s running 8s
@NBSV13 жыл бұрын
With the wheelie bars, the slick tire, and air shifter it should be able to get into the 9’s. Most of that will come from being quick off the line and through the first 1/8th. Would be relatively slow on the big end.
@mrmatt72103 жыл бұрын
Re: Modern Liter bikes can get into 9's. Maybe so with the right rider, but the average person wont buy a new liter bike and RIP a 9sec pass. I've seen more than a few people brag about what a magazine says their bike can do and be handed an 11 or 12 sec time slip after their trip to a dragstrip.

ps Hookes Law, those valve springs are distorted only in their elastic range, they will be Ok as long as there is no rust pitting (unlikely) to them. GO FOR IT!.
@Joes4323 жыл бұрын
If the engine was completely sealed off in a showroom environment (which it sounds like it was), then I doubt there is rust. Also, you are correct about spring distortion. They have to be pushed out of their elastic range into their permanent deformation range, which isn't going to happen while sitting- that usually happens when an engine is overclocked. you can always just take the valve covers off and check for damage, rust pitting, and measure the tolerances.

Let’s not forget this bike is nearly 20 years old now itself and no 30 year old jap bike is going to be laying down sub 10 second 1/4 mi times like this bike does. Despite have the same power. Heck even the late model jap sports bikes, very few of them can put down a sub 10 second 1/4mi time, especially without a good rider.

I know someone who has a destroyer. He ran it for the first time (on a drag track) a couple days ago (on 06/21/22) at Beach Bend Raceway in Bowling Green, KY. He did what he was supposed to do - he kept it a "break in" RPM's, but that bike is pretty awesome to watch. We'll see it some more in the coming weeks. It's pretty impressive.

It's an amazingly awesome machine. I need to add a air shifter, 2 step launch and get the nitrous setup soon. Colors are orang/black/carbon fiber, it's for CLL leukemia awareness for my wife's battle. I've wanted one since I was in HS when it came out in 1985 and was the world's fastest production bike.
