What are you riding? 

 

I didn't even know you had a dirt bike. :D Imma be down your way on mine this coming weekend. You ever ride Collie? I has some epic "unfit old man" trails around them parts

Oh jeebuz, one of them.....

I have personally seen 3 of them die mid ride now. Last one was my boss, he cooked the engine 50km from anywhere, and the only good thing about it, was pulling him out of there on the back of the bike he had relentlessly pulled the piss out of for 6 solid months. Keep a close eye on your service times,  but I have heard that slow trail riding has killed more 300exc's than thrashing the guts out of them. Its the heat build up in the clutch apparently

 

 

 

 

 

I did notice that on the weekend. It got a tad warm and was getting hard to start. all the other boys have 350's so i am thinking of going to one also (mmm electric start).

Or just get a mans bike 500cc [emoji1305] I used to have a Husaberg fe550e then got the fe501 which was basically a KTM 6 days, yeah my bro was envious with his exc500 IMG_2515.PNG

After only just getting back on a bike after a few years, i'll take baby steps. 

and yet you chose a 300cc 2 stroke... O_O

the last 300exc I rode was WAY more savage than mine. Was a lot more fun on the back wheel too. 

Main difference I could pick, was how much more comfy a big bike is at road speed. Watching the boss in the mirrors at 80kph was a show that should have come with a dinner 

 

A whole weekend of meat, charcoal and motorsports. I am like a kid at xmas with his first stiffy!!!!

Oh, and 500 odd km on my bike!!

the weekend starts NAOW!!!

    • I think in the modern era we live in, if I were converting a hydro lifter head to solid, particularly when chasing revs, I'd be seeing what I could do to use shimless buckets. Those of us with Neos usually have this persistent niggling fear of a shim getting spat out and ruining everything. Shim-over is...yucky that way. At least the Tomei kit appears to be conventional, but it would still be nice if they'd decided to go shimless.
    • Ok guys thank you very much. GCG highflow it is then 🙂 
    • forgot to mention that when it does this it does not kill the engine, but I have not kept the pedal down long enough to let it, as I see no reason to beat up on it as its got to be something simple, small and dumb causing this.  And as soon as I let off pedal, the engine returns to its normal super smooth operation and rpms re-stabilize quickly, once below 4k. 
    • neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.
    • Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock.
