Hi jumps. I can Cruise all day With no problems. wot for 20 minutes tend to get a little hot. Once I switch over to the Polini 26mm I should be all set.

Thanks R1. I'm 165. I have Metro Brakes in the front, malossi brakes in rear. they actually work very well.

I have the stock spree front kit and the rear wet brakes I may switch over to the sport spree breaks from g9 and the rear malossi kit. Did you even run it with the stock spree front and how hard was the wet swap? I can get the little nub welded on for cheap if thats all it needs, but I feel it would need a much wider front fork too.

Hi jumps. The spree brakes are useless.
Yes you need to modify the metro Hub once you well the boss on to your spree Forks.
you also need a Elite front Wheel. It takes some grinding and spacers to make it all fit.
I have a thread on how I did it .gl.

let me rephrase my answer. I can Cruise all day with no problems. wot for 20 minutes tend to get a little hot. I'm hoping, once I switch over to the Polini 26mm I should be all set.
This is my first Stroker build ,and I'm happy with my speed so far.

I really can't find a road long enough to ride at wot for 20 minutes @ 74.7mph. and I'm not allowed on the highway.
I do enough stop and go"s that I have no problems. If it gets too hot on me I can always switch to water cooled.

Daily driver

not trying to be that one guy to hijack your post but ive been told as long as you get your tune right you can wot all day with a 2stroke.

I dunno bout that... wot on my stock bore would still get hot after awhile. My current tunr is running a hair rich as insurance, cuz I'm using it as a daily driver, but I don't wot for more than a min or 2 either.

Sweet ride, I say screw em hit the freeway! You can obviously keep up w traffic haha. If you can hit 74 I bet 65 is pretty safe to run extended periods of time.

Greetings:

I must agree with Mr. Jumps. If the temperature doesn't steady out there's something wrong. If I see a slow climb I search for air leaks with carb cleaner or an unlit propane torch. If none are apparent, upjet the main however much is needed to achieve stability. Sometimes an air leak only happens with a hot engine; look for telltale base and head gasket seepage.

thanks guys always great advice.
The temperature creeps up, and levels out. when my speed comes down the temperature comes down very quickly. only at high speeds will temperature creep . I Cruise all day with no problems.

I did a test passed today but there was too much traffic around. here's a short video, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=96CVIFsqCpM

Greetings:

If it "Levels Out" at a value below 400, you're getting all you can performance-wise. If it keeps creeping much above that number, let off and re-jet. It sounds a bit "crisp" on your video. Consider upping the Pilot instead of the Main. Sometimes just that little extra bit of cooling mist is all it needs.
