If i have a question on a topic i go to the top of the forum and search. I typed in "template" and there were 126 results. If this guy really wants to port his own motor then i suggest you start doing homework, use the search button and READ. There is some really good information troughout the forum whether i agree with it or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheerider11 Posted March 7, 2013 Report Share Posted March 7, 2013 I have the race logic templates. I used them on my girlfriends cylinders. My personal cylinders are professionally ported. Now, the templates are okay. They are good for a basic port that will get you a few HP. Don't expect your shoulders to be ripped out. With the templates they only give you a intake and exhaust. The intake I feel is a little extreme with how narrow they make the bridge. The exhaust is a good design, it raises the exhaust a very little bit and widens it. They don't touch the transfers. This is where a little studying comes into play. A lot of power can be made in the transfers. You can also lose a lot in the transfers. I will not tell you how I did the transfers. I put in my research time and a lot of it. I barley got to ride the bike but when it comes up in 4th and I have to slam the rear brake I think it'll do pretty good. Now go do research and make sure your fully committed to doing this porting. It's not a few hours and a few beers type of job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trickedcarbine Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 Gonna take a lot more then a dingy shot of the intake in the dark to determine what style of port you have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valadezj Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 I tried porting a set of cylinders myself just for the heck of it and becasue i had an extra set laying around, i do not recommend it the gains are minimal and unless you got tons of cash to buy 3 or 4 sets of jugs to practice i wouldnt do it. You are better off sending you jugs out and spend 350 bucks and be done with it. HERR JUGS FTW, Kevin is a great guy, when it comes to customer service he's the man.

HERR JUGS FTW, Kevin is a great guy, when it comes to customer service he's the man. what is your knowledge with 2t engines ? what tools were you using ? you dont have to be a engineer to get good results with a home made portjob but you do need to have a fair amount of knowledge. and without the proper tools you might as well stick a fork in it. those 2 reasons are why first timers dont succeed. they have almost no knowledge, and theyre using a $25 walmart dremel. the engine doesnt run much better than it did before so they give up. read some books, ask questions, look at pictures, buy a decent set of tools. then youll be headed in the right direction Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
