Hey, in the top photo are you drag racing?  How did you get the bike to squat?  Different shocks or just springs and preload?  How fast (1/8 mile?) is the ole' KX?

Dig the Banshee picture too.

Very cool.  So your son runs the KX?  Anyways, that shot of the KX is classic with the shirt flying in the wind.

Sweet! I hope the guy on the brute force didn't think of giving you a run for your money.   Are you using an outboard starter on that beast? I would love to know a little more about the motor work and what kind of fuel you are running.

Younggunnaz,

What needles and powerjet do you use on Lectron 44mm?
Fast by Gast told me 7-1 XL and 70 PJ would be near the truth.

yes we do use a outboard starter.compression now is at 240psi.squish is .040.the lectron came with a 6-1 rod back in 1992.just put it on this year.ran it with a 6-2 this weekend but fast by gast guy said it was to rich for single cylinder two stroke.so he sent me a 5-2xl which i haven't tried yet.gonna do some mods to rad valve first to see if i can increase flow and velocity some.sonoco 116 fuel with klotz r50 40:1.
