Ok... new build.
I originally though... "im just gonna build a reliable cruiser... low compression...44 tooth...stock..." well i guess I dont know myself well enough XD.
Gonna build me a racer.
I picked up a kit a while ago and did a review on it in the 2 stroke section. Its been rebuilt, ported, and built w/ nachi bearings. Still looking for a nice top end roller bearing. Anyway I went down to the treatland store today (its like a freaking magykal gold mine filled with massive ports, colossal carbs, epic pipes and just about everything you can think of) and talked with the guys there. Picked up this insane head which is massive! Anyway got home, built up the motor. Here are some pics.
engine sure looks "cool"
Head needed considerable drilling out to fit m8 studs. Also had to dremel fins so i could fit my socket wrench in there to torque head bolts.
Bike itself was a cranbrook at one point... i think. I bought it at a garage sale for $5. it was painted matt black and had no parts. Build it up with a sick fork, picked up a disk brake wheel set with brakes for $50 on c list. Its got cool bars etc. its gonna scream! Getting the biturbo pipe welded up the weekend. will run a phbg 19mm carb i got from a friend. so psyched. Also hope to run a 38 to 40t sprocket mounted to the disk brake. Pics....
