Porting Video # 1 - Cleaning up Intake & Exhaust Ports

[@keeganhache6667]

Also at a basic level you want to never touching the base of the exhaust port you gonna want to raise it to increase peak rpm power. Raising transfers helps bring the peak rpm up higher but without a good pipe it’s not going to take advantage of it. Finally the intake you want to lower the floor so the fuel and air mix gets in quicker than stock. Hope this gives a bit of insight

Thank you so much Tony for these portwork series, would love to see more

[@tonytaylor5087]

I’m glad you like it! We’re gonna keep it rolling!

[@gotchurebeacons-gaming9023]

Good stuff Tony! (It’s me, David) Looking forward to the next segment, this is a great topic to explore

[@tonytaylor5087]

Hey My friend! Excited for this!

[@Bobs-yer-uncle]

Dust mask is nice to use while grinding as well I also tape my shop vac hose in there to suck out the pieces as I grind 😂

[@bandannacanada61666]

I use a round file, that's it. It is a little slower but really forgiving. I don't mess with the intake/exhaust timing but I like to make the interior of the port funnel out much wider, add a 21mm intake and run a higher set of jets. Makes for good response and more power. There is limits though, you don't really want the ports too big.

Great video

I'm brand new to the motorized bike scene, so this might sound like a stupid question? If it does I apologize... But what kind of performance does this give? Also does it give the bike more speed? Sorry for the dumb question fellas but I'm loving the hobby and most of you guys are pretty awesome with helping me

[@tonytaylor5087]

You’re fine! Please ask about the things you don’t know. This opens the engine up a bit to breathe better. Yeah you’ll gain a little top end performance. But mostly in the beginning stages we’re just trying to get the engine to run more efficiently. Just know port work is a rabbit hole that has a lot of opinion and experience around.

[@Bobs-yer-uncle]

Since you probably have access to endless cylinders it might be beneficial to actually show some mistakes for people maybe what happens if you grind away to much or something like that

[@tonytaylor5087]

As we test things I’m sure we’ll run into those situations. 😊

I'm just getting back into motored bikes after 10 years of not having one. Your channel has been great for new knowledge. I wonder if you have seen 'kreosan english' channel? You wont be dissapointed, 3 russians on mopeds hundreds of miles from anywhere. You should maybe do a video on what they did right and what they did wrong. Ride on!

[@tonytaylor5087]

So glad to help! I’ll definitely check out that channel!

I have the new v2. When I port/polish the intake, I should also do the same to the reef to match correct? And when will upgrades be available for the v2?

[@mattclinch1976]

It's best if you trace the inside of the intake and exhaust gasket with permanent mark on the ports so you don't over grind those areas.

[@tonytaylor5087]

Good insight!

[@mattclinch1976]

@tonytaylor5087 you could also try grinding a gold ball pattern into the intake side using the ball grinder. Don't forget to port match your grind on the carburetor and muffler. You want smooth even airflow through all ports. That's why tracing the gasket helps. To match the intake and outlet side of all units involved.

[@aidanreynolds8246]

What are the aftermarket exhaust options that actually utilize the larger port instead of just blocking what you’ve already done to open it up

[@janeali1174]

Sir, I need such a help. I want to ask about the port of such a cylinder, how can we increase the speed and hourse power from its port. Please help me. Please tell me.

[@traintraintrain51]

And on the v2 you don’t need the boost bottle right ? Because of the reef valve…

[@brittanypaggeot9272]

Why didn't you port match the gaskets, and polishing does very little

[@tonytaylor5087]

Did you watch the end of the video?

[@brittanypaggeot9272]

Theirs a guy on KZbin named Headbites. All he does are cylinder heads . He has some new porting info Also do you have a way to flow them

[@deeznutz.85]

everything about the video is good, except the leaving the intake rough, Velocity and volume overcomes any tiny residual chance that a rough intake "atomizes" fuel and a mirror finish on both the intake and exhaust is the way to go to maximize volume and velocity..... what a rough intake really does is it causes points where the tiny droplets of mixture can accumulate and increase in size.... If rough was a real thing then all the pro builders would be doing it to their race engines in motor sports...... NOT knocking the video at all , was an awesome vid but the "leave the intake rough" is just bro science bs
