Versey your a life saver !!

what is refered too as .050" open ,,,,, I though was 50% open

DURATION @ .050

Well that messed with my head ???!!???

Its clear as a bell now ! That articial explains it perty clear .

But

It brings up the question ????? about the scavanging effect ...

The articial states:

Even some of the new gases escape into the exhaust

you can see how much earlier overlap is taking place and how the intake valve is open a great deal before the piston starts down. This is usually considered as a way to increase bottom end power, but as you can see there is much of the charge pushed out the exhaust, making a less efficient engine

I can't help but wonder if this is why OldFeller only gets 80 miles to a tank of fuel ?

and

If the oppsite can happen to get more miles to a tank of fuel ?

Any Ideas.. : Huh

Waiting for the camchain adjustor (slide) sure is ruff ! Tongue

Yeah, that's kinda what I'm thinkin' about doing. I may even look into using one of those Kawi front belt sprockets for a touch more top end oomph. I already have a slightly oversized rear tire, which actually makes the speedo just about correct. I guess I need to look into the pricing of the Stage 1 and then maybe get 'er done before the best riding season is here. My understanding is that I need to send in my camshaft and have it worked.

Come on, guys, you've hijacked the thread ! Wink

What I would like to understand is...

... exactly where is the Kawi sprocket oversize vs. the Suzy sprocket ?

Can we have a side-by-side pic comparison ?

This find could be the golden egg of chain conversion nuts...

I, for one, would love to have taller gearing for easier cruising, but either I shear the belt, or I have to disassemble way too much hardware.

On the other hand, by simply replacing the sprocket pulley, we have taller gearing AND all the benefits of belt drive !

Cool

Then I can find out how far off the speedometer is . (Mile a Minute @ 60 thing). Does the math worked out to . (23/25=92) or 8% overdrive ? Not sure thats enough but its a step in the right direction !

I got "Baby" back together and on the road this week.

I've had 4 days to ride around with the larger front sprocket. The speedometer to rpm is the same of-course. but things fly by a lot quicker now. Most folks around here do 55 in the 50 mph zones , but by the speedometer at 50 I still pass everything on the road , gona have to be more carefull about that ! Speed limit 50 now means 50 on the dial !

Just a couple little teeth sure make a big difference !

The interstate is an hours drive away , but you can bet I'll do the mile a minute thing first chance I get.

That's an option too. I don't have any machinery I'd think adequate for any of the necessary milling, etc. but maybe I could take one to a shop somewhere near or some enterprising soul on this site might decide to begin adapting them.

Pics of your pinky? Grin

I missed it, I guess, but what pulley off what year and model Kawa? I think my pulley has slack, so this may be a good way for me to go this fall when I look at it. Thanks
