There are rumours of 50bhp. I suppose I should learn how to ride.

That's a fair few more hp's than normal. Is that because of the big bore kit?

Dont bet on 50 at the wheel... Unless you added a stroker kit

Mine was touching on 46 at the wheel...

Hot cam
434 piston - big bore barrel
Some fancy air-flow mod on the bottom end of the piston

It's not confirmed yet, we'll see once it's all back together and on the road.

50bhp does seem a lot, stock I was getting 39bhp.

50rwhp on a DRZ requires a big bore kit, stroker kit, FCR41 and extensive valve work. Also a proper header pipe.

Lets see.

Good luck...

Engine's READY!!!!!!

Collecting on Monday or Tuesday.

I may ask for the crank to be tig-welded, for extra strength

but otherwise we're all good.

Looking at between 45 and 50 bhp

Wheelie pics would insinuate that Milddog can actually ride his 50hp anchor

When we going riding dude?

And is your Yamakar behaving?

MildDog - Bugger the horsepower! When ARE we riding?

MildDog · « **Reply #269 on:** January 26, 2012, 09:36:14 am »

Yah, this bike will be far faster than I can ride.

I should get it back today (leaky clutch actuator seal that Suzuki South were slow to deliver).

We'll ride this weekend.

Its behaving now. Turns out it was a faulty relay switch which was difficult to detect. but now my back brake is not releasing the pads properly so riding without back brake for now

It's a function of the piston getting stuck in the up position and not sliding down like it is meant to, right near the rear back-brake pedal.

Sharp! Lol

I'd still rather use the Bialetti which goes onto the camping stove

Its way too fast for me now. Rode it last night. Awesome fun.

434 piston and barrel. Light-weight valve springs. Intake-cam. Leo vince pipe. Superbike Solutions air-flow mod.

Haven't dyno'd yet. Will post results when it's done.

Just read the entire thread now. Jeez, what a rollercoaster

Seems DRZ ownership is everything but boring.

Glad the bike is fixed again

You're just 16 cc's short of Amageza entry or the cut-off for the Dakar!
