And a little background music, a couple of bikes growling and howling on a dyno room:

KTM 610 Supermoto

Ducati 1098S

Yamaha R6

Well the wife and I decided we needed some beach time so we are at her her parent's condo in Gulf Shores for the weekend.

As for jets, you gotta buy 4-5 at a time on many sites.  Anybody know of a site where I can buy a variety of single jets or does someone have extra jets, including a 52.5 pilot, that I could buy?

i liked the article, the vid take with a grain of salt, as it's somebody trying to sell his product... infomercials(even on youtube) usually contain much more "-mercial" than "info-".... bear in mind, Jim, the article deals with valve side of the carb intake runners, not filter to carb, but the vast majority of the info is extremely useful... really loving the low-budget manometer rig.... could use the same set-up to synch carbs too....

Experimenting with a shorter intake...



... resulting in slightly lower torque real low, from take-off to maybe 1600 rpms, compared to the longest K2, but added about 4-5 mph on the top end during my big a$$ hill test and accelerates a little faster from 70mph when on the interstate.  Tried again using the foam filter like a direct mount pod filter- no better on the hill test but definitely less torque on the low end.  It's funny how little changes in the intake length move the power and performance around.

Well, in using the 2" intake, this appears to be a pretty dang good setup for my bike.  The intake length is right in the middle between the shortest and the longest one tested.  The filter has much more surface area than the foam filter and the length of the filter puts it in position to collect air from the cool air deflector.  This is the 5" K&N with the 20 degree bend that I bought a little while back.



Next I'll see about making another turbulator to go in the mouth of this intake tube.
