Salt Racing Update - Dyno tuning our Braaap 250 ST with guru Rex Wolfenden

Extracting a whole lot of power from a machine built to be relaxing and fun is not easy. But we did win 3rd place at Phillip Island racing circuit in October last year with this engine So we are encouraged. So join us at the dyno as Honda racing guru Rex gives us all the encouragement and wisdom of his 100’s of years of experience and a smile. Thanks Rex.

[@bengalpin7667]

I met your brother recently Bruce, hope hes is doing well now. Wasn't till he spoke about this bike that I put 2 and 2 together.

Get a nitrous kit 6sigma 100$ Amazon or eBay i went to flat slide jfg racing 30 mm I think the power jet will mix well with the NOS im waiting for the intake manifold to arrive 🤞🤞🤞 i think I'm at 16 hp 200cc

[@TwistgripTales]

The quest for more power The classes we have chosen to race in sadly don’t allow NoS n turbo etc but we are always looking for horses everywhere Good luck on your quest. Our target is 100hp per litre or 25hp at the rear wheel That would put you at 20hp So happy hunting Thanks for watching Cheers Bruce n Co

[@dontaylor3736]

What class have you entered? I will be running my honda 250 in production class. Hope you get it sorted in time. See you there

[@TwistgripTales]

Ha Ha We hope we finish in time too. Not in Production but 250 Pushrod Modified Partial Streamline Gas & Fuel Look forward to seeing you out there on the salt Cheers Bruce and the Twistgrip Tales Race Crew

It definitely sounded rich at WOT. Did you try dropping the needle a notch or two?

[@calambres6614]

Why not go back to the original dyno tuner from the original video to compare on Same dynamometer

Your using the wrong oil..in the engine. To much friction ..! I ues a metal . Treatment... In the oil... I can send you sum free.. .. sample..? I put. It in a KMX 125 and it went from only 8,500.. rpm max standing.. to 12,000 + it sounded like a jet ...... ! In put in fuel as well..

[@TwistgripTales]

Thanks Rohan, always interested in high tech solutions. Happy to try your oil. What viscosity is it? What engine are you running? Where are you running it? Mx, Roadracing or will we see you on the salt? This Engine will happily pull double it’s designed rev limit and won us a 3rd place at Phillip Island. So much fun. Send me some oil for sure. What brand? & viscosity? Cheers Bruce
