    Can a Rocket III take down the establishment, and rule this island

    I have a lot a practice to do, and a few bits to fit & setup on bike like traction control, shift light and quickshifter. But first I need to get the maps dialled in and to a dyno for finalisation.

    Can a Rocket III take down the establishment, and rule this island

    So I got a few hours to go at it and got the back brake online again. Might need caliper rebuild. But anyway got out for a pull for the first time since October I think? This is a clip of 33% throttle and up to 6000rpm. I can't wait to go 100% and 9000rpm! Other somewhat positive news is...

    2.5L Rocket Stroker Engine Kit with 6 Speed Transmission (R&D)

    Simple answer, no. I could be here all day outlining reasons why not, but in summary they are two completely different engines. One might as well be asking if the crank from a BMW i8 will fit. Good news is you should indeed be able turn your 2004 from a 2.3L into a 2.6 or 2.7L maybe. You would...

    Can a Rocket III take down the establishment, and rule this island

    As in with the only map editors available to us that I know of for these ECUs being TuneECU and TuneBoy (Triumph factory one notwithstanding), one can't access the injector flow rate variable to edit it. Or fuel pressure for that matter. You can change AFR target and quantity of air in mg x20...

    Can a Rocket III take down the establishment, and rule this island

    Got a few minutes free time and it was dry! Good to be back. Man is the bike a monster compared to the runaround commuter (Hayabusa) Coolant leak appears sorted - need some more heat cycles to be sure. Back brake has gone limp, going to need some work but then it's all in order once again and...

    Can a Rocket III take down the establishment, and rule this island

    When I put the 2.5 Bar BMW MAP sensor on, was worried it wouldn't work and if it did then the mapping would be trash because the granularity was significantly reduced in that before you had a map table of x amount of cells covering 1 bar and now you have the same amount of cells to cover 2.5...

    Can a Rocket III take down the establishment, and rule this island

    This monster has been parked up for months now. Dusting it off a little. Fixed a coolant leak (I hope), updated its motor tax and pumped tyres they were half flat. Might get a brief spin in to check leak is fixed tomorrow.

    Happy days Kev! Any onboard videos of a 60-130 pull (in Mexico of course)? 😁

    How To: Fit Carpenter Racing 210/240/265hp Kit (Inc. Dialling In Cams)

    Let me check my detailed files. Only finding some rough cam lobe measurements. 2012 at time of original installation (vs stock Roadster cams) The intake lobe measurement not visible above;

    Wow. That's a new one. Wonder did they decide to start including Threebond on head gaskets after several years of barebacking it? This is the head gasket comparison of the 2 versions available...

    215hp street build

    Not in my manual or recollection, does your manual have date on it e.g. front page? There are 2 versions of the head gasket available, there's a pic there that illustrates the differences, I wonder was this Threebond thing only there for the older style gasket or why would they update the...

    Clutch spring bolts

    Just the local pro hardware store. Key tip for fastening the bolts is criss cross pattern, a little at a time, until the 10Nm torque spec is reached (accurate torque wrench!). And test the lifterpiece / pullrod spins freely by hand in the bearing after torquing the bolts, no tight spots etc...

    Ran tape around inside the sleeve and used the cranking piston to push the sleeve out? What busted it?

    Oh I don't know dude, think it was just under 8000lbs or something. I gave all engine specs to Carrillo and they built the pistons & rods accordingly. I just close my eyes and hope for the best :) From my own files the stock 8.7:1 2294cc piston assembly was about 515g, and the two sets of turbo...

    Can a Rocket III take down the establishment, and rule this island

    It was always a pain with factory clips, but the newer style super strong Carillo ones just make it nigh impossible. No issue on the bench, just if doing it in the upper case it becomes quite a challenge

    Can a Rocket III take down the establishment, and rule this island

    So another couple months has passed and I've only been able to put a small amount of time into it. Slow progress but positive progress nonetheless. Self mapped to about 50% throttle & ventured as far as only almost 6000rpm so far - another 3000rpm to go. Some mildly interesting numbers...
