Elkart Lake
« on: June 12, 2016, 08:10:04 PM »




     A friend of mine sent me this picture from Elkart Lake. Looks like a 97 Sport with a 1200 engine and carburated? Am I seeing this right?

I spoke to the owner.  I'm pretty sure it was injected, but I've been wrong before....

It *was* injected, but last year it DNF because of surging at WOT. Looks carbed now.

Could it have been hitting the rev limiter?

It is a carbureted 1400 top end and is still surging at WOT.

The ARMA results don't look to good.  I didn't make the scene this year, but the web site doesn't even mention the bike making any of the races. :sad:

I'd have that sucker on the dyno and find out what's going on. The Kid and I talked about it last year and agreed we'd keep adding fuel until it quit doing that or fouled plugs.  :smiley:
