Round 4 was rough for me, as I wasn’t fully recovered and little did I know I had a sinus infection. I’ve never struggled so much while on the track. However, I went into Round 6 feeling great. I pulled my fastest lap times and finished 3rd in HW GP…but holy shit was it hot out there!
Here is a quick comparison of Round 4 vs. Round 6 @ Pacific Raceway…
Round 4:
Round 6:
Dyno results my 2001 ZX6R Race dedicated bike, the motor is stock (although I was told it had an EDR build, I’m thinking otherwise from the dyno), it has a full akra system (that leaks), Factory Pro Ti kit (badly tuned) and BMC Race air filter.
The results 97.66HP – See image..
Apparently a little lean ~7k and really rich past that, I was told to raise the needle a notch and drop a main jet size. I was considering doing some carb adjustments and heading back to the dyno.
Current carb settings:
Main jets: 152.5 150 150 152.5
Needle position: #3 #4 #4 #3
Air fuel screws are set ~3 or so turns out
Carb is synced
After not hearing from Scotts Performance for a few weeks, I called and they eventually tracked down my damper. Unfortunately they said since it was, you know, on fire.. they would not service it as it could be warped from the heat. They were nice enough to return my damper (uncleaned), all mounting parts (cleaned up looking so new I thought they were new) and a few replacement pieces that are brand new… all for $7.31. Next stop, Barry @ KFG Racing, I’ll see if he can restore it.
