Awesome! Hope your engine doesn't make noises like my fresh one does

 

Hopefully I will find out later tomorrow. Got the engine built today after work.

 

Nice! Good luck!

 

Its in, runs. Needs some tuning. No noises, no issues *Yet

 

Proof

 

Nice work! Bike looks great. Jealous of your exhaust, both my track bikes have the older Gen1 "curve all over the place under the engine" exhaust.

 

Wanna trade? I need passenger pegs back. This high mount isn't exactly A good fit for me.

 

I have a set of passenger pegs I was getting ready to list for sale if you need them. No idea on market price of them, just shoot an offer if you want/need them. They came off my son's bike during the rebuild of that one.

 

Love to - although neither of my cans are in very good shape.

I think Bike 1 might be high mount:

But bike 2 might have a standard mounting point:

For what it's worth, my street bike has a high mount and I just put the right side peg on with machined spacers and longer bolts.

 

I may have to try that.

 

I got a build thread now.

Here

 

Little more tuning to be done, and some break in time, but it runs.

Pink is its current state of tune, blue is last years engine. Not quite what I was expecting.

Whoever is tuning your bike fire him.
And your builder while you there . 2mm over should give you a lot more power than that.

 

Running pretty lean on the top end for sure. Should be easy to fix. Probably pick up a few horsies too.

 

Uhoh, I post an unfinished bike dyno picture and tovar gets hot and bothered.

 

Not bothered, it is your bike. Last year curve looks bad as well.

 

Ha.

Took a little time yesterday, found a leaking intake boot.

 

I went though the carbs once again the other day, found I hadn't drilled the #54 hole that dynojet suggests in the slide. So I did. Cleaned the pilot and main jets, reset the fuel screws to 3 turns out. Found I had 132's mains changed to 136's and bam, better Idle less popping on decell. Only problem now is once its warm it will want to stall out just after you take off from a stop. Im gonna try 2.5 turns on the fuel screws, fix the dragging dyno brake and report back.

 

Oh and I dislike this high mount Leo Vince, probably going up for sale soon.

 

Have you ever used Cratex rubberized abrasives for polishing? They can give you a near mirror finish in the ports. I've been using them for a looooong time on a lot of different projects. They are worth looking into!

 

Nope never have, I use an old fine grit sanding roll, that has been used up for sanding, it almost galls the metal. If that's not enough some mothers on a paper towel.

 

I still have my pegs, just need them back on the bike. I see how that could get mixed up. Anyone wanna trade my high mount for your low mount full exhaust?

I really haven't worked/rode my sv in a while. I have been focusing on my truck build.

 

All that material you took off the combustion chamber might have something to say about your results also. That and hogging out the ports will also lower the velocities. All that stuff you did to the heads is very likely why got those bad results.

Don't mean to be a debbie downer, but slap some stock heads on and I'm pretty sure you will get back the power that you were supposed to from the big pistons.

 

I dont think so, the dyno at work had a dragging brake I disconnected it today made a few runs. When I get a little more ambition to work on it I'll pull the carbs and get a smaller main in it. I think I'll hit 80 no problem with an A/F of 13.25 or higher.

 

I'll scan a run I did at a different shop here in town I did this morning.

 

No scans but I do have pipes for sale, http://www.svrider.com/forum/showthread.php?p=2552637#post2552637
