    I'm very pleased with the numbers from an almost stock engine.
    It's just Boysen, PWK and the silencer.

    Now I want to try different pipes.

    (I can use the Dyno whenever I want to =)

    They look real nice.
    I'm going to build my own pipe first just to see what happens on the dyno.
    Jerker the dyno owner is a Two-Stroke guru and have many fun things in his garage.
    Like an 88cc 24hp drag race moped.
    Crazy dude.

    Hahaha, That's amazing.

    How about a Rotax 400 cylinder on a YZ250 bottom end.
    Aprilia 250 Centrifugal/Dryclutch and so on and on.

    And his streetbike is an Öhlin Yz360 with supermoto tires.

    He didn't want to adopt me.
    I asked twice.

    the first thing i would do in you position is to look at the cylinder ports
    as cast they were ROUGH, a clean up and knife port the transfers
    you might be surprised how much power that will net you

    Rough edges have been smoothened out but nothing have been done to the ports or transfers.
    Just the roughest edges is gone.
    I won't take it apart this season because I have just put it back together with new piston (Mahle) and gaskets.
    But next winter it will be done =).
