    Well 1upfront raced in the 0-350cc 2stroke class. Have you ever smelled smoked banshee? We smelled plenty of it tonight.

    He even took out a Buell last night. It was priceless to see. The Buell owners kid came up to Hartley after practice and said "Man that three wheeler is fast, I hope you win".

    Sweet vids, awesome job. The only thing is, and maybe its just the audio, but it sounds like the R is kinda choppy and breaking up a little bit? Whats your plug gapped at?

    Yeah your right Billy I had to play with the main jetting all throughout practice trying to get it dialed right in but it's still a bit rich, one thing I didn't do is gap the plug I'll have to get out my manual and see what it recommends then set it for that and see if it clears up.

    Billy it isn't the audio we have been having some issues with it on top. The plug is gapped at .026. We went from a 152 to a 140 main during practice last night trying to get it clean on top. It helped but we ran out of practice time and ran it the way it was. The track was terrible, very loose and really rough. When it was hooking up good it sounded better but that didn't happen often.

    thanks oldsking lol if you liked that one you'll like this next one it was NUTS, I have a couple more vids of me getting eliminated the first loss was due to a massive power wheelie and the second was from a poor launch, both bikes where banshees.

    I gap mine a little tighter, if your running some higher compression (I imagine you are) it helps too. Try it somewhere between .012-.018 and see if it improves. .026 is quite a bit, it might have been blowing the spark out.
