pandp Posted August 14, 2012 Author Share Posted August 14, 2012 Engine was painted black mate....been trying to keep with a black and silver theme. As much as i like the streetfighter style i have been trying to do something different. I removed the streetfighter style headlight and added fairings to the top to come away from streetfighter look. It wont be long before i get bored with my current colour scheme...already planning a different one but for now i think i will just enjoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pandp Posted September 16, 2012 Author Share Posted September 16, 2012 Well my bike has had many changes....from naked to fully faired. I will be taking the bike off the road soon to completely strip down and respray the new design i have in mind. Do like it fully faired so going to keep it like this now http://imageshack.us/a/img716/1038/photo1104.jpghttp://imageshack.us/a/img822/5692/photo1102u.jpghttp://imageshack.us/a/img38/1388/photo1115l.jpghttp://imageshack.us/a/img222/9449/photo1120.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fozzie Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Liking it!Thought about making the steering clip on bars, rather than the streety high rise bar? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pandp Posted September 18, 2012 Author Share Posted September 18, 2012 Liking it!Thought about making the steering clip on bars, rather than the streety high rise bar? it did cross my mind but i do like the position as is. To do it properly i would need USD's or i could opt for universal cip ons. I would like to try it at some point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pandp Posted September 23, 2012 Author Share Posted September 23, 2012 Spent the weekend fitting a 250 engine. Engine came from the GV cruiser so some nice chrome casing. Massive difference to ride, goes like s@@t off a shovel so to speak.http://imageshack.us/a/img208/9971/photo1138w.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pandp Posted September 24, 2012 Author Share Posted September 24, 2012 Very impressive mate. Good job! Thank you Just ordered a new chain and sprocket and bigger main jets...job for the weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fozzie Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 Good stuff to see it progress more!I know the GT comes able to have the bigger engine ready to go straight in, frame is a good platform Are you using the carbs from the 125 or did you get a set for the 250?Increasing main jet size isnt always the best plan as you may run the bike overly rich at the high rpm's. You ideally need to increase the amount of air and then upping the jets and messing with the needle smooth the fuelling out so it runs just a little bit rich at all points!Or so Ive been told to keep it running reliably Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pandp Posted September 26, 2012 Author Share Posted September 26, 2012 I have much a similar set up as i did with the 125, desnorkled airfilter and still using the same carbs with a slight increase in the main jets. The pilots have been increased, needle clip returned to the middle. Just ordered bigger jets as the other hyo members that run this engine with the Stainless system are running 100/102 main jets and i think 21 pilots. As i did with the last setup, trial and error with the carbs. Lots of messing about but well worth it when you get the perfect setup.
