One good rock to that pipe and say goodbye! considering that its probably held on there by just the springs and silecner, didnt see the pipe knecked to the frame, im just saying....

@mikereyes2630 Well noticed, and a good point. But It was just the first heat cycle, and the pipe was braced properly before it was ridden. This was a few years ago now, I've still got the bike but it's now a 144 with an Athena top end and a PC works pipe (it's not braced properly in the video either funnily enough).

what oil:gas ratio did you run after the rebuild for the breaking in purpose of the engine.

[banfordg]

@sideshow45 32:1's fine as long as you use a good quality synthetic oil and take it easy for the first couple of tank-fulls. Don't drop below 40:1 even when the bike's fully run in.

@banfordg ok thank you sir. :) i was going to buy a project bike, it was a 1990's suzuki frame, and a yamaha yz250 engine, but the engine must have been old because it was air cooled not liquid, like yours. do you have any idea what year the engine could've been?

[banfordg]

@sideshow45 Got to be very early 80's, 80-81 were the last of the air coolers (and the end of a golden era in my opinion). Not sure how well the two will mesh being that far apart in age, but good luck bud.. anything's possible.

I'm in the process of uploading three new vids, see my Athena 144 installation (thde bugger's broken three of my ribs so far...)

[mikereyes2630]

@banfordg thats one hell of a good looking bike you got there man, keep the 2 stroke fever alive.

[mikereyes2630]

@banfordg thats fuckin nice bike man, never get rid of it.

did u hear about the 98 pound weakling who went to alaska he came back a husky fucker lol sorry just reminded me of it

[davison1021]

what does it mean if i have to give it gass and crank really quickly like 5 times to start it

[matthewmarrs123]

@banfordg so when it's fully broken in stay at 40:1

[pinduline]
