Good Videos,

With all the talk of kickstarting this past week I figured I would try kicking mine on Saturday morning. It was 54F, I turned on the choke, pushed the kick start until I felt compression, let up on the kick start them gave her a nice easy kick. She fired right up.

For the entire weekend I only used the kick start. Why? because it was so satisfying that I could with ease on the first kick everytime.

Thanks, I have been blessed and it sounds like you have too!

Jerry, I never could kickstart this bike cold, I would get lucky every now and then when it was warmed up. That always kinda worried me that at one time I'll need to kick start it and I'd be dead in the water. I also kick start the bike most of the time....because now I CAN!

Had fun Yesterday, I gotta get better camera stuff for filming while riding.

Good Video.

I picked up one of these last year. It's been a good action video camera. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07FYJDZCZ/ref=dp_prsubs_2

Cravin01 · 12-03-2018, 08:23 PM

I have a action cam too but it was at home, I filmed with my phone and it didn't work out. I'll get it set up with a helmet cam next.

Megadan · 12-05-2018, 07:11 PM

Are you running an external mic inside your helmet? If so, do you have anything for a wind muff on it?

Cravin01 · 12-07-2018, 08:34 PM

I just mounted a action cam to my helmet but it's over two years old and at that time they really didn't have external microphone jacks on them.. I'll more than likely upgrade to a nicer action cam to get the microphone and image stabilization now that prices are better on cameras equipped with those options.

Cravin01 · 01-05-2019, 01:47 AM

I got a new setup on the bike with a new chain, I threw in some RPS Hawk ratios to help a few ChinaRiders along! I know there are more people here I have taken advise from and I'm sorry if I didn't get to acknowledge you.

Megadan · 01-05-2019, 04:02 AM

I think you did a good enough job with that to help some guys. The combinations to hit the same ratios are endless. 15/40 is 16/43 is 17/45, etc. so I think you did the right thing by including the actual ratios.

**JerryHawk250** · 01-05-2019, 07:42 AM

Nice job Paul.

Cravin01 · 01-05-2019, 09:06 AM

Thanks Jerry and Dan, I did look up some more ratios but as you know I had to narrow it down and I though the scenarios I've seen come up and what I was after, this would be close for the average guy wanting to upgrade. Anyone wanting to dive deeper will probably have a good starting point and things to consider.

I really need to start stating that this is just a opinion I've reached and I am not claiming to know what I'm talking about at ALL. I'm aware there are more knowledgeable people with probably better answers than mine and I appreciate everyone watching and being kind enough to overlook a few mistakes!

Just added a cone filter and Chrome Battery..The filter has forced me to re-jet, Not so fun!

Cravin01 · 06-15-2020, 12:19 PM

I finally got the tune right and squared away the filter,You can definitely hear the air pull with this setup. She starts up with no choke has full throttle range. I'm not gonna lie though...we fought for about four hours and I think I finally won!

More shots.....
