Question:
just reading and reviewed people installing this feature on there bikes just tring to see if it is necessary?
Answers:
Any one of the items you've asked about by themselves will net you very little but together make a good set up.
How old do i have to be to take a motorbike test?
There are several brands of after market intake modifications. The easy explanation of the purpose of these is to increase air flow into the engine, increased air flow should result in increased performance (more horsepower, more speed).Does anyone know how to get Howdy Doody back on CarQnA.com?
its a hyper chargerCan put a R1 engine on a 2001 R6? How?
its an air cleaner that delivers more air than a stock one
Can a software engineer own a suzuki gsx R from his own salary ?
The forward facing scoop shape of the hyper-charger is supposed to force more air into your engine's intake system, and allow the engine to produce more power.Now the KAWASAKI 1400 is here, is it the end of the BLACKBIRD?
Unfortunately, the forward facing scoop shape of the hyper-charger also forces more rain, bugs, sand, dirt and road debris into your engine's intake system.
My dirtbike is really high revd?
I have ridden several bikes equipped with this air intake mod installed, and can't say that I really noticed a huge increase in power, but some folks think it looks cool!
What percentage of Motorcyclists fall off their bikes at one time or another?
"A fool and his gold are soon parted"An old saying, but true. Think about it - air flow through the venturi of the carb creates a low pressure in the carb throat, which lifts fuel from the float bowl, into the air stream. Gravity, or a low pressure fuel pump feed fuel into the float bowl, level, and mixture, are controlled by the float. Now, all this is worked out by engineers, time and again, for each seperate application. (Of course, there is a lot more to it than the simple version I just quoted.) Now, you upset the situation, by packing air into the carb throat. Want to blow bubbles back into the gas tank? I have designed and built a few ram air systems, and worked on a few factory units, so have a pretty fair knowledge of the system. If the Kuryaken Charger works, the engine will loose power, and almost stall. It is good for looks, only. Now, if you want to make one work, use a gravity fed carb, run two small hoses from the Kuryaken chamber, one to the fuel tank, and make sure the cap is sealed. Run the other to the float bowls of the engine. With a bit of fiddling with jet sizes, etc, you can get a good boost.
The Kawasaki 1986 GPz1000R, the 4 valve water cooled model had a so called ram air. I bought one of the first ones in London. It ran fair, until the first real foggy day, and I almost fouled plugs getting to work. I found the factory had such a dense air filter element, it did away with the ram air effect. The float vent went to atmosphere. No pressure on gas tank. With the approval of my friend, Paul, the Kaw dealer in London, I went to work. Changed float vents, a much freer flowing filter, air feed to the tank, and some jet changes. It ran great, Paul said it was the best ride he had ever had. Kawasaki had no comment, but the ZX11 came with my fixes. I have used this process on several Bonneville bikes, and street bikes. So, as I said in the first sentence - read and beware. If you want to know how to make one of these devices work on a bike, write me, and tell me what you have, and I will give advice.
