well spotted,i don`t understand the wider gap between ports bit ?
ive messaged them and am going to look for some more of them port map images ,if ime right they should flow more but not alter the revs when it comes on song as the heights are the same ?,i havent messed with porting since my x7 when i was 18 and did the bike magazine tune

[fred]

it`s nice to know jl pipes have a 120mm belly (thankyou whoever posted about ground clearance probs,at last i got a measurement)with the screen ruler measuring tool i was 2mm out at 118mm

Cheers,
Bernie

[fred]

No mate,but i can send you the dxf files for the cones, use standard headers

[fred]

the plot thikens ,seems ive a 1544,1596 .so it`le suit what ive got ,kr1 left n 1s right.but if they`ve been fettled il`e need to match em up,asked for a tenner off for good luck

[fred]

barrels arrived ,kr1 right (on the left in the pic) thats been worked on and kr1s left ,ive been searching old info about the back skirt of the barrel , i have to match both (and one day all 4 ,as spares),and does anyone know what the lower boost port does ? kr1 barrels got several hand stamped numbers i`me guessing from work done or invoices ,707,737,22874,22420,18390,and on the front skirt 22674,11166 and ss400 ,i recon this is just to keep track of work done ,hope everyones well n good ,cheers fred

does anyone know what the lower boost port does ?

Last I heard there still wasn't a man alive that could make sense of that stupid extra port.

[fred]

it`s there so we keep guessing i recon (clever jap`s) probably

[Luders]

Not so clever me thinks, as it was abolished on the later 1S, so probably about as much use as mens tits is my guess.

[fred]

cool ,thats all i needed as i couldent picture it in my head
