More Martin magic!

My bike runs so smooth and cleanly since Martin soniced the carbs and stripped and repared the engine. 650 miles on and its crackling like a gud un

Cant recommend his work enough.

Hi Gary,
Nice work on the hanging brackets for the exhausts, where did you get them done?
Cheers

Hi Bernie, one of my mates, made them for me by hand in stainless steel, gave him some cardboard templates, did a really good job. Well happy with them. Am still waiting for my paintwork , four month's still counting. So told Martin to go to town on the engine . :twisted:

Hi Gary,
I saw the work Martin had done on your crankcases the other week, I was really impressed :mrgreen:
(Any chance you could ask your mate to make a pair of those brackets for me?)

It will be great to see what your motor does on the dyno.
I am dropping by to see Martin on Tuesday, I will get another look at your motor then =P~

Cheers
Bernie :D

Full engine? Very expensive :(

Just the cases etc probably half the cost.

I'm sure someone on here will know the answer... I just know that sending a CI barrel, piston and Alloy head for an AR to Two Stroke Institute cost me £85 recorded delivery. They must have seen me coming... Won't be doing that again in a hurry !!
If it takes more than 2strokes then your just playing at it..

Quick question for Martin, why running pre mix ? Is it because of the upgrade from 250 to 300 or all the other perfomance goodies demand it? If you are running premix isnt there a risk it can run weak at times?

the owner wants to run premix steve. its one less thing to worry about, its going to run on Castrol xr77
running on the pump is good for a all round road bike. but I believe, for something a bit tuned and a bike that is not going to be used a lot. premix is the way to go
