flatslides

[rrsp]

any body running flatslides on there bikes, just out of intrest, as i have just purchased a set for mine, its a race bike,

[tiptop]

Is ther a problem you are having with them?

[Evilchicken0]

They have different carb / engine rubber than standard CV type

[tiptop]

I thought that myself they also aparently need re-jetteing fairly often depening on the weather etc...i was thinking of getting a set my self but dose anyone no will 1.ther be much differenc in the BHP and 2.do they need jetted all the time or what?

[spannerman]

its not so much as the jets need resetting all of the time once that is done on the dyno then you have the trouble with the fuel hights this isnt much of a problem just a small length of clear pipe marked at 28"-38" connected to one side of the fuel inlet pipe then adjust your regulator (after market fitment) so as the fuel settles between the lines marked this is called setting the fuel hights as it differs with barrowmetric pressure
sunny hight pressure
wet low pressure
as for increase in bhp there will be a very small gain but the response on the throtle will be a massive gain

i hope this helps

cheers for the replys, iwas just curious how many people used them,looking for a pressurized airbox if any bodys got one, like the kit one i have on my owo1, has anybody seen the bdk kit air box & whats it like, cheers.

[spannerman]

i have a bdk on my bike its a good bit of kit but pricey an a pain in the arse to get to the plugs

hi spannerman, is yours a seald box with a air snorkel under the bottom yoke, to the front of the nose cone, or does your tank act as the top of the air box, just wondering which is the best way to go. cheers.

[spannerman]

hi mate mine uses the tank as the top of the air box but im half wat through making a top for it as im going to cut the tank about so it will only hold a gallon
keep you posted
