BHQ FALL TRIP


Recommended Posts

I wouldnt think that the couple of extra HP is worth the hassle of alky IMO, start playing with nitro and get that dialed in I think it would be worth it. Scott you wanna sponsor my banshee fund that way it will be done by this fall so I can take it on the trip. My 450 wont be fast enough to run with you guys.

Sorry, I just started a TRX500R project, like just this week. Or else I'd love to.... :beer: I do miss the 2-strokes, so this is my way back in....

 

That "you guys" wasn't directed at me was it? Surely your YFZ is capable of hanging with this stock bore 450 Honda....

The bore is probably the only thing stock about it correct? I watched you making quite a few passes on the strip :biggrin: All I have is a pipe and filter.

not telling. :beer: you could wake that thing up sooo easy though. retarding the ex. cam one tooth, opening the airbox, a pipe and a high comp. piston and you could be around 50. you already have 2 of those taken care of. get the head off, put a piston in and retard the cam and you'll be moving pretty good for a 450. My honda is plenty fast on the track and in xc but get it next to some fast duners and it starts to look stupid. damn 4 strokes, fast enough to "hang" but gets tapped out way too easy. I'm tapped right now, no more hp unless I go alky, nos or bigger displacement. I imagine it's only a matter of time before I go bigger but hopefully this project will cure me wanting to turn the 450 into a time bomb. oh, and I'm hovering around 54 and change right now, depending on temps. that's babyshit for a banshee.

Very nice. My last pull was 54/35 but I've made some changes as well. Don't know if they're for the better or worse. SOTP no difference, so we'll see. Bigger carb could get you another ponie. Good luck with that. JohnYFZ runs his big bore YFZ with alky and said it's definitely worth some. I'll see if I can find some sheets with before/after alky.

 

Here's a sheet. This is comparing three fuels, E85, VP U4 and Alky. Don't know the actual numbers but you can see what the curve does with alky.

Sweet.....look's like alky gained a couple pony's to me......

But i will try it and see how it does......

And how fast will it blow up....????

there's a member on the trx450r.org site and I know he's a member at other places, maybe YFZCentral. His name is John05YFZ and has one hell of a runner. Like a 520 on alky with an out frame pipe. You might search him out, tell him sredish sent ya and see what he knows.

 

Oh BTW, it's official. I'll be at Little Sahara over the weekend of the 22nd. That's my only shot.

yea, think that's about where I was 3 quads or so but I'm running 6 paddle rears to help keep the front from flying up at launch so I get some excessive spin at launch. not a big deal, i just drag for fun and it runs good enough for me. i do like his quad, makes me want to get a yfz with an out-frame. :shoothead:

I've heard a lot of good things about the RW pipe but the Dasa I'm running has a tad bit more low end from the dyno's I've seen. Actually, the dynos I've seen, they're pretty god-darned close. There's a guy with a 450 in OK that has one and very similar mods and hp to me. One of these days, we're going to get together and swap pipes and dyno to see how each works on our bikes. Anyways, maybe we'll meet up sometime.

 

My dates are for sure, the weekend of the 22nd. I'll be there Friday sometime through Sunday.

 

Here's a pic of my quad so anyone who's there will be able to find me.
