No, only Gary and Martin went to get Garys bike on the dyno.
My only contribution is to half the size of the video file so it could be uploaded, I wish I had been there :mrgreen:

think you mixed the premix a tad rich gary.
maybe take the kr to krazy kats and get the zeeltronic ignition dialled in. could be 68 -69bhp
am sure it will give one or two more horses, but as I have said to you ,be carefull
with the state of tune on the engine. tick tock tick tock

video is great. it actually sounds like it has loads of power.

but then again. I am very optimistic :lol:

on a sensible note, I feel its a great shame that some regular members have doubted and knocked this rebuild as I am more than happy
to tell people the two to three things that made the difference to the bhp figures.

no one doubted or knocked this rebuild, it was just a simple discussion about dyno's.

I have just bought a set of new jolly moto pipes.
and a few more mods.
I have,nt been on this forum for a while as there has been a lot of negative remarks
of garys 300cc kr1s that I built. [you all know the bike I mean, the most powerfull kr1s on the forum and prob the country. ]
I am now building a true 250cc kr1 , not kr1s. and lets see if I break 60bhp.
nothing pesonal against you Martin, and welcome back, but it's posts like this one that sends shivers down my spine. you make it sound like you are the one and only, THE KR1-specialist. but there are lot's on here and there is no reason at all why you should be better than the next.
My ultimate goal is to die young as late as possible !

Hi Gary bike looks fantastic, dyno readings were great, bit of a sore point as I have read ooops handbags :lol: :lol: Anyway that said. Could anyone tell me if they have heard anything about Gary Teague Tuning, its in Eastleigh which is only half hr from where I live, so convenient for me. Or anywhere close ish to Andover Hampshire. I think mine will need setting up, (purchased off Martin) its tuned barrels, head and its got 29.5 bore carbs on it, I have a good idea about setting it up, know the basics but would like to have it set up properly and dyno for sure. I can rebuild and repair no sweat, but tuning I must say I am a bit green on this front. So any advice free support, free services I'm easy :lol: more than welcome :lol: :lol: :lol:
Just the last thing where can I find this dam dyno video :oops: :roll: :lol: cheers Wayne.
