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!!!

    • Because that’s not what any of them are building these heads or blocks for. It’s to hold over over 1000hp at the wheels without breaking and none of that stuff is required to make power 
    • Dort sounds above 3k rpm are dorty 🤣 I might krinkle black the alloy 🤔
    • It makes you wonder, all these people starting to make a billet replacement head, I wonder if any have thought about trying to adapt tech from newer engines into them. You're already at the full design stage to make a billet head... Why not really spice it up and had some more modern tech into the mix too...
    • Connect all the plumbing up properly. The actual worst part about having the turbo unable to actually build boost, is you can and likely would over soon the turbo if you drove the car (free rev while stationary isnt likely to manage it).   If you do have an air leak as Duncan suggested, you'll have a bad time as the AFM will be saying different to reality.   As you have had the engine out, I'd go over all electrical connections again. If you have a consult cable, plug it in, and see what the ECU thinks is going on. Did you touch the timing belt? If so, double check your timing on the gears is correct AND put a timing light on it while it's idling and see what ignition setting you have. Is the AFM you've installed the one that was in the car previously? You said you replaced seals, what seals exactly? What have you had apart?   From memory when I had my RB25DET with factory throttle, there was two plugs the TPS plug on the loom could go to. One would leave the car running like shit, the other made it work, I think one plug on the TPS area was for something else (an option). It's too many years since I saw that part of the loom to remember properly though.   Is the car idling smooth (as smooth as an RB can)? Does it smell fuelled up?   I have a feeling either timing in timing belt is off, or a sensor isn't right.
    • Theres still skid pan and motokhana days up in QLD at least that are $100 or less. The ones that are ran as "driver training" less so, they're expensive, but just normal skid pan days like SAU ran are still low cost. And thats one of the places I learned to be a lariken, purely by asking for passenger rides, and how people were doing crazy things. Reese gave me plenty of pointers back in the day for skid pan! And yes Duncan, I will never forget your pointers for track work. Especially after Neil got out saying "I am NEVER getting in the car with him again!" 😛
