Bike Mid Season Revamp #2

I decided to do some tests on the bike. First test was compression. It was low. Next test was leak down…. again not good. Front cylinder has 16-18% loss through intake valves. Rear had 12% through exhaust valves. I had a old set of heads around and decided to put those on the bike for this coming round at NJMP. Heads that were on the motor each had an issue. Crack valve spring collars.

Got the motor all buttoned up. Rode it around the block, felt pretty good. New 45t rear sprocket, grips, throttle tubes, fork oil, and most important new front brake pads. All season so far the brakes have been bad. Hopefully this sets me up to be trouble free at NJMP*knock knock
