thanks for the info sir!!

that pipe look great, low/ mid pipe right ?

EC is looking great Karthik! Looks more like a Proton

Whats the difference between the EC you were using before and the new one?

Whats the complete new ignition system on your RX?

Would love to know the details

Cheers!!

Karthik, beautiful chamber there. Kannan is known for doing such work. RD gu similar setup madisbidi, just my thought.

I dont mean to question you but doesnt porting mean an inreased flow thru the ports which in turn will mean an increased need of fuel? To my knowledge thats when upjetting is required . Also are you on a stock airfilter?

As you know coming from a nontech. background im a bit slow in understanding a few things so i tend to ask a lot and try to learn from others knowledge and experiences.

your Q. about the 5sp. using smaller jets is right and definitely made me thinking. I think each engines carburetion depends on its own internal design and configuration and cant be compared to another. The Shogun uses 100 mains but is faster than a RX100. What do you say? Let me know you opinion and answer to my earlier post.
So is your 5sp. running on stock 135 mains and filter?

The 20k kms. warranty is way too good for a modded engine. Id consider myself lucky if i even get it on a stock engine these days!

Haha! the guy you had a drag with must surely be an amateur or atleast he must be new to bikes, atleast RX. What was his vehicle?

what still remains unanswered is your 5 speeder uses stock jets and filter?

I was just giving a referencse and not comparing the Shogun. Yes the 4sp and 5sp. are similar but do people use the 135 MJ on when they mount the 4sp. carb on the 5speed?

My Green 5-Speed:

MJ : 145
PJ : 22.5
Carb : VM26
Bore : 4TL10
Sproketing : 16T/36T
Gearbox : 5-Speed Custom


My Black 5-Speed:

MJ : 165
PJ: 20
Carb : VM22
Bore : 4TL00
Sproketing : 15T/34T
Gearbox : 5-Speed Custom

This will be revised again when i use VM26.

Note: Both the setup are using OE multi-coloured foam air filter.

the fuel used in most of these high strung engines is aviation gasoline (av gas with about 100 octane or so) not ATF ,atf is normally used in jet engines and will not work in reciprocating engines also its bpcl hpcl and ioc that supplies these but not over the counter ..... and also im curious who is your tuner exactly , is it the same fellow whose address u posted a few days back

Waaaaaw.....I wish my RX could run on ATF

Right, Aviation Gasoline is 100octane petrol whereas ATF is kerosene.


If I could run on ATF then I could run on kerosene. cheaper you see

avgas is basically petrol with high octane number it is used in piston engined aicrafts like cessnas , etc nowa days ,basically smaller aircraft also in older aircrafts like dakotas spitfires etc
atf ,like sunniboi said is kerosine based,and is less volatile compared to av gas and is used in jet engined aircraft like boeings , airbus etc which use jet engines etc

all the airplanes you see do not use jet propulsion , the smaller 2-4 seaters still use piston engines for power.... its the larger ones boeings , airbuses helicopters etc which uses jet engines in turbojet turbofan and turboprop form that use atf

I am not an expert in these things ,from what i know av gas used ususlly has octane number of 100 or so , it is the same one used in smaller aircraft , its not only used in drag racing but also for track racing rally as well , basically it is used in engines having high compression ratios , as it prevents knocking also allows for the engine to run cooler .... experts in aeronautics or racing field can verify this

as for the tuner , its me who is confused not you , i will clear the question , is it the ravi nagesh guy or the one whose name you posted some days back

As an aircraft engineer, yup pretty much the info above is right.. In college a friend did manage to get some fuel and run it in his ZMA.. pretty insane.

errr you're forgetting those rickshaw motors keep blowing up left right and centre, you sure you want to do that to your RX? As far as I know kerosene doesn't combust under compression it detonates, which will turn your engine into liquid faeces.

I refer to the motor when I said blow up not the rickshaw lol
