@terry-tz wellits deffo running rich throw a new plug in and plug chop it if you really want to find out

[terry.tz]

@declan tbh im probably just gonna use ES plugs i would like it to be a bit rich got some traveling to do

[declan]

@terry-tz I use es plugs they are pretty good only fouled one

[terry.tz]

@declan I always carry a spare ES anyways just in case

[terry.tz]

I no longer think it's the plug seems to be a restriction but sometimes I get 80 and others 70 or anywhere in between il get to the bottom of it

[terry.tz]

I looked at the de restricting stuff online and apart from exhaust and port all is meant to be good but I swear I have a cdi retardation or something at 9-10k ish I not taken much notice will now tho any one know what it could be

[declan]

@terry-tz my bike only revs till around 9 not been able to find the restriction yet

[terry.tz]

@declan im not that bothered it goes as fast as am bothered on a dirt bike but it's annoying knowing it's restricted some how and the feeling when it cuts ignition for a second bugs me

[declan]

@terry-tz yeah coming from my usual bikes the dt feels like a monster but would like a longer power curve so I need to get the restriction sorted

about time I was more active so let's get things moving new exhaust chain and sprockets first I think as the current exhaust is, to say the least, f!cked and chain seems to be stretching fast been readjusting more than normal

[declan]

@terry-tz can’t say as I’ve had to adjust my chain due to stretch i done it maybe twice

[terry.tz]

[terry.tz]

fitted today love it but it won't a straight fit sounds sweet il be rebuilding the carb in a few days when I have the time as I think it's a bit rammy in there not been running right for a week seems lean at full throttle enough to cut the bike out and now I fitted the pipe need to check how she runs new chain and sprockets going on to same in a few days oh and a tach cable to mine broke a few weeks ago

[Calum]

That's bloody lovely that.

What was the problem fitting it?

[terry.tz]

@calum brackets were not lining up from the silencer to the frame there not to far out I got one secure with a bit or thick tube as a washer makes it stand off a tad and might burn the plastics a bit and it wasn't very well lined up between the expansion and the silencer either il line it up better with a blow torch bit its fine for now its secure and hell ye it fits better than the old one that's been chicken shit welded im gonna only use one bracket anyway reason is to let there be a weak point for if its dropped ect minimise the damage but il cut the brackets off and re do the one il keep im in no rush to do this though

[terry.tz]

also, the front bracket won't too clever but it went on ok bent into shape as I tightened I had to remove the damper that goes there

[Glynn123]

Nice exhaust, I definetely rate it on mine

[Calum]

It looks superb. Get some photos up of it on the bike. It's a shame the fitment isn't on, but the guy makes them by hand so I guess it only takes a few miscalculations for it to not align properly. Mine fitted fine on my bike, but it was much more versatile with it being underslung.
