Chickenwingz's question thread

[liljohn_92]

2t's are awesome for track riding, gotta hold em in band to get them moving but that's half the fun, Depending on your size/weight you may be better off looking at 125 2t's as you wont really outgrow a 125. They are full size.

and everyone knows 85's are for 12yr old girls

 

[krazed0451]

If it's your first track bike and you don't dwarf it, get the 85... If you learn to ride a less powerful bike fast you'll smash it when you upgrade

i heard that not riding is supposed to be really quiet?

 

[GooseMan]

Hey craig is that really true? My tc185 has a home made baffle with steel wool and haven't had a problem with it yet but don't want one as I have already had one too many fires lately.

Best brake/clutch levers

what are the best levers for pitbikes?

 

[my67xr]

is your TC on gummy atm? $400 odd iirc?


all you need is one small spark to start the steel wool burning....

some muffler packing is only $13 for a bag full, enough to do a decent size muffler.

get a coat hanger.... bend it to a l shape... put steel wool on the top of the L shape and light it (after bending the l to make sure the steel wool does no fly off) and then spin it around holding the L handle.... make sure you are wearing a ****ty hoody or somthing and watch the fireworks (the steel wool has to be packed pretty tight)

IRK vs OKO 26mm flatside

what will give a bigger boost in performance, Super Light Weight Inner Rotor Kit, Oil Sling or OKO 26mm FlateSlide Race Carby Kit

 

[rotn50]

26mm OKO, dont go and get a IRK, they rev great but as soon as you hit the slightest incline the engine just wont pull, besides with the 155z/160ho ORK its all weighted for the engine and i have never had one fail yet. Forget the IRK dude, they are highly unreliable also. OKO 26mm on the stock engine will perform beautifully with the stock 100, 36 jets.

I love the short ASV brake and clutch lever. I like them cuse i only use one finger on clutch and brake, got used to that when i rode dirt jumping and street on my bike cycle

 

[beginnerMX]

look at crf 150R better than both.

IRK vs OKO 26mm flatside

Second that! I've got an Oko and I had a drag with a mate on the exact same bike with almost the exact same hours on them and I instantly started pulling away from him!

I can't fault them, I even like them better for trails! Sorry should mention he was running the stock Mikuni on the other bike for comparison.

 

[Phil67]

I've got them too, love 'em. I've even bent the bejesus outta the clutch lever, bent it back with a metric shifter and all good again, sweeeet. Have to use a metric shifter though, the imperial shifter won't work

Cheap performance upgrades

i've got a gpx 160 and was wondering what would be some cheap performance upgrades for my bike?, also what are engine mods i can do other than v2 head/184 big bore?

 

[lets ride]

carby and maybe exhaust but the exhaust isnt cheap i see it as you get what you pay for bud so u buy cheap parts they wont last long

 

[bulldog93]

Cam and carby.

Then you got your big bore kits, exhausts and shat like that.
