Goodbye to a good 1250 engine

[strokerjlk]

This bike has been on the track since 2006
Literally had over 1000 passes on it .
It has been a good motor , and been in the money a lot . Not alot of money , just in the money a lot 

[Panzer]

WOW, right through the case.
That's about right, broken at the stress point.
The engine did you well.

  RIP

Man that sucks. But now you get build a bigger one.

According to Ron Dickey . Your correct the front rod breaks where mine did
The rear at the base .

Yes I do .
Gonna do a Axtell 88 ci . With ductile Iron cylinders

I am considering going bigger on mine once I get my clutch issue resolved. Think I am going with hammer performance though.

cant go wrong there.
same cylinders.

Those little 88"ers run very well.  Mine is still out there, and I hope whoever stole it is enjoying my efforts. Fukkers.

That sucks
Had some skumbags steal a Stroker shovel of mine . Know just how you feel .

What else was the build robin? And what did it do power wise ?

[mayor]

ouch...that suxs.   

[rigidthumper]

What else was the build robin? And what did it do power wise ?

05 883, NRHS head work, Axtell 88" cylinders w/flat top pistons, SE 575 cams, ST2-1, Pingle air shifter & light, DTT ign, 45 Mik, PM Chicane wheels, Shinko tires. 102TQ/115HP.

Thanks Robin
Kinda the same as what I am doing . 575 cams with a .500 dome piston .

[rigidthumper]

That 1/2" dome should get things moving pretty well.  Shooting for 11:1 corrected?

As much compression as I can get .
Kirby is opening up the XB heads for the bigger bore , and cutting the new 30 deg radius .
It needs intake valves as well. Once he gets his hands on them , . We can determine compression.
Was hoping for around 120 hp .
As of right now I plan on using the HO 575's . But eventually would like to use a more right side set of cams

[rigidthumper]

The RS 643s might fit the bill at 13:1

That's what I was thinking too
Don't know about clearance yet though .

[Maxxx]

ouch!!  what rpm did it let go at?

[strokerjlk]

Fortually it was right after the burnout .
Engine was idling .

[strokerjlk]

Gonna go with stock rods again . 

[Maxxx]

 shooting for another 1000 runs..    
I keep waiting for mine to do that at 7500 rpm! 

[Durwood]

Too bad they don't bolt the twin cam flywheels together

Figured you would notice the ultima flywheels in the background

[aswracing]

Those new skinny neck rods as pictured are actually stronger believe it or not ... according to my contact at PDC anyway.

The late Buell/XR crank is much improved and cheaper too:



1.5" pin. Rods made from the same material as used in the XBRR 9000rpm motor. The crank runs about $650. Can be fitted to 91-99, bolt-in for 04-up.
