I've stated it a few times, on this DMX. I will provide the results good or bad. Seems like most of it has been bad.
Go figure, I would of thought going to a 200cc bigger motor & a 40 lb. lighter rigid chassis. Would get us better times than our old set-up, the 1st time or 2nd time out with it.
Well, the broken crank did tell us something. While it was tore down, I Iooked at the bottom of the pistons. They looked new, that along with our plug readings. The motor was building no heat. I guess you can put to much Alky thru a motor & kill power. We were hoping to get all of this figured out on the dyno, but that plan changed.
We hope with the new stator & ignition. Plus, leaning the motor out we get some better results next time out. We plan on leaving the clutch set-up alone, because we think that's close. I'm sure all of this will probably change, like it has so far.
We are finding out this bigger motor is a set-up/tuning challenge. We were spoiled with our old set-up, but we'll get this DMX figured out.
