So I’ve been holding off for the last few years waiting on the gen 3 to come out. Buuuuttttt as we all know now, that’s a pipe dream.
So last week I decided it was time to get my own bike again. I neeeded my own again anyways as I have some of my own in house manufacturered parts I need to do some final testing on.
So here she is. A decent orange 08, with 14k on her. She manages to take REALLY good pictures despite the orange paint being pretty badly faded from being parked in the direct Texas sun, under a car port. I was able to talk the guy down to $4500, so there’s plenty of money left over to buy replacement OEM body panels to get this doll ready for the HP party.
As y’all may have seen the impressive numbers that silver stage 1 gen 2 bike on E98 made. I want to find out why it picked up 45hp with no additional ignition timing added. I have a theory why it did so well, and it falls in line with the concept of how meth injection works.
Also on the subject of e85, I’ll be testing our add of flex fuel set up. The goal right now is to go out and race all night, and if you can’t make it home on the remaining e85, that you’ll be able to top off with 93, or any pump e85 and at least be able to run well enough to get home.
Before I put a turbo on the bike, I’m going to remove the cats from the stock header, and also test a stock, na engine on e85. I’ve always assumed they won’t pick up much, if any as that’s usually the case on NA cars/trucks but, with other recent results with that fuel, there could be surprising and meaningful gains to be had.
Tuning theory, fuels, turbos, ecus have made huge strides in the last 10 years. So I’m really open to seeing what can be applied to these bikes to make more efficient power, as well other cost effective solutions to turbocharging these bikes, or any modern bike for that matter.
This should be fun and interesting to see what I can come up with. And as long as there’s general interest I’ll keep progressing.
