MY almost 350HP of BUSA............s

[BUSGO]

Nice shot Loafie. You caught me when they said the k8 was gonna be another 2 weeks away.

sounds like he just wants one, its almost 250 I reckon, hell my gen 1 is doing 176hp on the rear with out a full system

now who's dyno was that run on Raz.

[BUSGO]

Just to keep the pot boiling. Garbo's 00 model dynoed on a dynojet at 172hp with a tiforce and pc.

I stand by my statement of almost 350hp from the two bikes.

Been hanging for an excuse to bring it out

No way its a blue bike!

i spoke to sydney dyno today and they,ve done a gen 2.Guess what?It revs like a rotary.181sae at 11000rpm,106ft/lbs at 7300.Its worse under 3500 but better from there.100ft/lbs from 6500-9500.Map c is the above power,map B made 172hp and map A made 120hp.90ft/lbs just over 4000.I stand corrected.These numbers ironically are the same numbers dad made on that dyno(but with less torque down low).I want to rerun my bike on this dyno to overlay as it seems to be up 8hp since redegreeing the stock cams to blueprint suzuki spec.As for raz,s 176 with slipons?that wouldn,t be pete pitstops dyno would it?They all vary, last year my bike read 170 on one dynojet and 157 on another.I still did a 9.6 with it.165hp on the low dyno this year maybe 178-179 on sydney dynos.I doesn,t make me any quicker.if your bike does make 176 at the tyre raz the bike should run 9.40,s at 146mph.So busgo I WAS WRONG.

No matter, I'll have to settle for just 180+ from tomorrow on when the 99 leaves me.

P.S. The A mode (default starting mode) is the high power one and the C mode is the low power one Glenn. The k8 starts and runs at full power unless you select to throttle it back.

By the way the bearing code on my K8 is B B B B C.
Now please explain to me and everyone else, the benefits of a straight set.
I understand that the letters represent the bearing tollerance on the crankshaft.
Is that correct?

That dyno comment I made was done in jest ie. so don't read anything into it.....

The bearing codes on the outside are the size of the crank bore of the cases, The crank also has a set of Letters for each journal ie. AAAAA, ABABA etc you can then match each letter with corresponding letter on the cases to get the correct bearing for that journal.

cases =AAAAA with crank =AABAA, bearings =Green Green black green green.

A= 43.000- 43.008mm B=43.008-43.016mm

The same applies for the conrods but they have numbers 1111 etc

There's no benefit either way as the clearences are down to .016 of a mm there's only a very small difference from one end of the scale to the other.

If your really worried or obsessed with the letters, let me say this,if the cases have AAAAA stamped , How the f*** do you know what the crankshalf letters are when you buy it, cant see them letting you pull the engine down to check them out!! they could be ABCBA......

There's more things in life to worry about!

Busgo contact me if your still concerned !

No probs. Thanks Leonard, I understand your explanation.
I presume that as the donks are being assembled on the production line, the crew can match the parts according to the codes and therefore, hopefully, the engines all should run smoothly.
