registered user Posted November 22, 2013 Report Share Posted November 22, 2013 If you do get photos..... It would be most polite to email them to the folks at K&T first. They might not be so willing to help if you post their work all over with out consent. Just a heads up. aint like a bunch of parts changers would know what they were lookin at anyways. let alone copy it with a walmart dremel. just sayin to duplicate it with any accuracy would require a very detailed blueprint drawing. ive seen a few "professional" shops stuff and it didnt appear much time or thought went into it. definatly not somethin i would want to copy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trickedcarbine Posted November 22, 2013 Report Share Posted November 22, 2013 ^ But if we are talking about actual K&T cylinders.... It is just curtious to not post a builders shit. Could they be duplicated by looking at them, probably not. Again there is a reason they don't just get on here and post all their stuff. It's their living and giving it away free doesn't keep people coming in your doors. We're not talking about someone wanting to copy the local yokal at the corner shop. So I'm not sure why you put it that way. You make it sound like K&T is some group of cut rate hacks with your last statement Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wayne_smith97 Posted November 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 22, 2013 Totally off topic but I had an aprillia dirt bike. It wasn't that impressive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camatv Posted November 22, 2013 Report Share Posted November 22, 2013 not sure why people think k+t's porting is so bad ass.. they can just build a nice motor and know how to set up the entire bike... if you put their cyls next to any other GOOD shop its hard to tell a difference.. k+t does use a pretty distinctive exhaust port shape. not that others have not tried the same style.. all i'm going to say i have rode a very brutal 350cc k+t ported stocker back in the day.. but those cylinders and the guy that owned them even said they are very very special ( $$$). they ate pistons like crazy and ended up breaking after a short period of time. BUT they were drag only cyls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fucking stupid. Nothing you say makes sense. 140hp on 350cc? Lets see it. Stop talking all this shit and hiding unless you have something to back it up. Words are cheap. And you're using your cheap ass words all wrong anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
registered user Posted November 22, 2013 Report Share Posted November 22, 2013 (edited) It was an Aprillia reference. it wasnt a reference to any specific one engine. pretty sure honda and ktm also have engines close to .4 . infact i know ktm does and hondas version would be right there pretty close Edited November 22, 2013 by registered user Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
