I hope he wrote your specs down in a book. I'll need at least 2 for my V&H pro pipes ( Honda and no bar KZ). Will have to send specs on the other 3 bikes,( V&H pro stock pipe, Star Racing pipe, Murray pipe). Okay, so $35 x 5=$175 if i even plan to race our bikes at an NHRA track.

I'm sure he did! I did!

well, the smoothies looking better!

Never had a set marked I recall.

another

Notice the bracket above them.....11's still going to happen this year....and more consistent starts!

Frank,I can place your order for 2 V&H's sets. Bet we can get $5.00 off on 5 sets, Bill

K. So that means you'll behave! No putting wheelie bars on those untamed bikes!

Keith shaping up to be big fun. Mike, if you can't make it, oh hell c'mon man! Call Kenny, talked with him last week, and get him and Todd in gear! lol! Bill

Ya'll need to come see if the King can knock Larry off the top spot.

He wants to be the last in the 5's club. Recognized 5 sec run at Man Cup event. Ian's been in the 5's already.

Nice pic, but the idler needs some attention. Lot of slack / whip in the belt drive.

Just booked my flight too. May need a sleeping bag because I don't have a room yet. Anyone want to share a room?

Bill/BentON Racing · « **Reply #4042 on:** March 27, 2014, 08:55:26 AM »

We can step on you or over you!

OK,so we want a 1/4 turn push pull throttle huh? Well, look at the white marks....12:00 and 3:00...not real good at math (took my shoes off) but thats 1/4 of 360 degrees,90 degrees of 360 = 1/4, so we have a 1/4 turn dual cable push /pull. I bought it off ebay cause it was a European throttle out of a CBX sport control kit. An option, 1/4 turn, cables went up instead of down!

So if you're going to hook up a return, you need a place to hook it. Usually on a bell crank. These carbs came with one cable or at least a small bell crank with only one hole for a cable. I can install some return springs, will be harder to turn, but safer, and might make the riders feel better.

Also if we switch throttle, we gotta install a starter switch and another type of tether kill!

Anyway I'm racing it Sat, weather permitting! Bill

Sam,you can ride this.....I promise it repeats well!

LArzFroMArz · « **Reply #4043 on:** March 27, 2014, 11:46:01 AM »

Buying bobbers now Bill? BTW Jerry's got a bed...

Bill/BentON Racing · « **Reply #4044 on:** March 27, 2014, 02:20:07 PM »

No, fixing one. Do like it enough to offer him an old 750 if he wanted to build a 750 bobber!

He said no....rt now! It sits really nice.

Larry good man on helping Jerry........God knows he needs it!

Sam Green Racing · « **Reply #4045 on:** March 27, 2014, 03:20:44 PM »

Good luck at Commerce Bro, ride safe and give em hell.

I'm at Santa Pod this weekend with Lewis on the 750 GSXR, looking for 10.1 and nothing more.

See ya'll Sunday night.

Sam.

Bill,
"Also if we switch throttle, we gotta install a starter switch and another type of tether kill!" It depends on how long a right handlebar you have. I've had both on the right side,(just the stock housing minus the stock throttle tube) but I was using an aftermarket 1/4 turn single cable throttle. I always use strong return springs. The tether kill isn't required in most rules (slower than 9.99 seconds and won't go 120 mph on the track without a big, big downhill) Yes, I favor one but Pops should know that when you shut off a Hondamatic, it coasts. There's no motor compression to rapidly slow it down. Get the bike to 90+ in the 1/8th, shut it off and it will make the quarter mile finish line coasting. Needed for sticking throttles mostly. Let's not complicate a simple improvement...

Sam Green Racing · « **Reply #4047 on:** March 27, 2014, 04:04:55 PM »

Jon, the tether kill is required on all bikes at the Man Cup races, we found that out at Bradenton in November, we had to make a couple.
The bike will coast half a mile from 116mph.

ask me how I know.

jweeks · « **Reply #4048 on:** March 27, 2014, 05:03:06 PM »

Sam,
"most rules" don't require it. Cup rules aren't what most bikers race under. Keep the stock housing on the right side, remove the stock throttle, drill the stock kill switch lever, insert a cotter pin, spread the ends and mount tether to other end of pin. There's room there for a new aftermarket throttle and the stock starter/kill block on stock style handlebars. I've done it. With a long enough clip on bar you can do it also, even if the stock kill block is on the back side of the clamp.

Bill/BentON Racing · « **Reply #4049 on:** March 27, 2014, 05:42:09 PM »

Jon, 1/4 came in today. One cable pull only. It's range of motion exactly the same as one on there! Verified by another old school wrench who's helping out this year. Why switch it? Makes no sense.

I will attach a couple return springs. Also will paypal you back the money for throttle. I'll use it on something else.

Replaced #3 bowl today. Gas leaking out of tee that goes between 2&3! Oh well always something.

Will pull carbs tonight, other than that was ready to fire it up. Going to try to fix idle so it pushes on all 4 at same time instead of moving 2 first. Reason idles erratically is 1&2 go up at idle more, all 4 move the same off idle.

This bike only needs better rear brakes to improve it. That's going to happen , but not before Valdosta, maybe by June race. Bill
So I think that simplifies things!

Jon, we will be calling for dial ins!!!!!
