Sumps & baffles
#14
Just thought I would share something, that one should never assume. And also that I need to learn a lot more about riding my bike. With 1 point left I have limited my riding on the beast. A full set of clutch plates later, Just to be sure, another 1.5mm of preload, and the result? At 75mm over standard length. The bike just smoked a shinko reactor. My my mate watching me ride previously was wrong. It wasn't clutch slip at all. It was just spinning. Another thing I learnt was by adjusting as little as 25mm wheelbase took us from smoking to just enough point loading to get a transition from limited wheelspin to wheelstanding through gears. We are still slow at the cattle grid track at Casino. We set a new track record of 6.37 with stock shifter and stock height. Pretty sure we can run 5.70's there at the next meet based on what occured on the day, as we were improving every run and had more left. But now it is time to go to a track with traction. We need a new sump, but the pipe location means we can't buy one off the shelf. Ay one konw anyone suitable for the job in the Northern rivers SEQ area?
