Default My Tuned R15

****Update specs as of 14/04/2010****
Its my 7 months old R15 with 12000kms on the odo and not stock anymore. Completed a performance build about 2 days ago.

Here are a few specs of the bike as of now. The specs are always due for changes as and when I desire.
This is purely a street build and not a race build. key is reliability, economy and rideability.

Engine:
*Ported and polished cylinder head with altered port geometry
*Custom designed valve springs
*Stock Valve sizes
*Full Race camshaft with custom ground profile
*High compression set-up
*165cc
*Fine tuning and set-up corrections
*Max revs - 12500rpm
*Stock throttle body and intake tract


Fuel management:
*Stock Injector
*ECU (under development)
*Altered fuelling

Gearing:
*Stock sprockets
*Stock Gearbox
*Stock Clutch

External:
*Stock looks
*Hand crafted Tuned Free Flow exhaust
*Full stock weight, no lightening

Performance:
V-box test
My R15
0-60kph - 3.2secs
0-100kph - 8.5secs
0-400mtrs - 16secs
400mtrs - 132kph
max speed achieved in 1km - 155kph

Stock R15
0-60kph - 4.6secs
0-100kph - 13.65secs
0-400mtrs - 18.5secs
400mtrs - 114kph
Updated as per V-box tests on 21/06/2009

Top-speed – 140kmph (As tested on 24/15/2009 on GPS and Speedgun, with rev-limiter cutting off speeds @ 10000rpm)

The engine has higher low-end torque than a stock R15 untill 5000rpm and from then on, it gets into the powerband with a stronger pulse. The engine is very streetable and reliability is as much as stock. After being thrashed for over 200kms last afternoon and being pushing to top-speeds numerous times as part of my destructive tests, there was not a hitch in performance or engine NVH levels. The engine stills returns decent fuel efficiency for the power it generates. It’s approximately around 30-35kmpl.
Last afternoon, when we tested the bike, a stock R15 would clock 119 to a max of 125kmph on a hopelessly windy road (with multiple efforts) and at the same point my R15 clocked 131-138kmph. And recorded a max of 140kmph on a clear patch, with the rev-limiter kicking in @ 10000rpm.
I will also do a Dyno run and post results here.
Pictures and a video clip are with our boys. They should post up in a while now

Was expecting something along these lines when you posted up about the free-flow being developed and tested

I'd love to witness the V-Box tests. Will call you this week to check up on the schedule for the same. The awesomeness never seems to die down as concerns you, Joel !

CC is 149.
Power and torque bump will be proven on a dyno. No comments till then. I have clearly mentioned all the specs, its says...modified stock piston .

@rossiter - that was quick. Thanks

@maverick - Thanks man.

A ported R15... can't imagine the performance... Even a stock R15 had satisfied my needs...

Is it full port or a semi-port engine???

Anyways u r "THE ONE"... NEO...
