Sooo, last weekend I went trying my CB750 after some changes.
Let's say that the season did not start well: crash on the first race, bike not running properly on the second race (I would have been probably faster on a bicycle). I can't attend the third race as I have a wedding of a friend, but anyhow at least I have some time to get things right for the 4th race in Magione.
The current setup is:
> DP62R pistons (

> DP 315 camshaft (

> CR29 carburators (main jet 125 needle on the third slot)
> lightened crankshaft
> racing valve spring (but original valve)
> DYNA S ingnition
> Dyna DC 1-1 coils (

At the race the bike simply did not run properly, it reaches (badly) 6000 rpm and then it simply stop pulling. Carburation seemed lean, so I tried to go up to 140 main jet but with little improvement.
During practice last week I firstly use the recommended valve lash and the bike seemed to go better. Then I set the needle on the third slot (from below). Again another small improvement.
The thing that really started to get things going was anticipating the ignition, at first by 3° (from the manual recommended position) : finally some pull, but above 9000 rpm, with quite a power hole between 7000 to 9000 rpm.
Anticipating more to 5° increased the pull, but again at very high rpm! The power hole between 7000 to 9000 persist. Unfortunately it's the spot where the bike runs the most during race.
Any suggestion on how to improve the situation? Keep anticipating? Go back to a milder cam? Devote myself to fishing?
