hey guys,much improvement since last update. i got a complete top rebuild after the ring went, had two races on it now and im up to speed with the leaders! i knocked 2 seconds off my problem laps at qual and another 2/10ths in the main, I finally got my tc4 pipe and will get to try it this weekend, but i still have a couple questions.

i run a PWK28@

air screw: 2 turns

slow jet: 38-40

main jet 138-140

now i have 2 DIFFERENT pwk28 and Ive seen a 3rd and/or 4theach one has a variation to it. (i was told when i was putting my setup together that PWK was the best carb, yet everyone else runs the mikuni) can someone explain the pros/cons of the carbs and the different pwk28’s and provide a simpler tuning guide/scan the tuning guide from the cr80 manual as i have lost my mine.

 

other issue: when i hit high enough RPM on the long straits i get what seems like a ignition “half ground out”, (the ignition quality suffers a little) am i overloading the coil? or could it be one of the pieces at the flywheel? this symptom has not seemed to be consistent. (that ive noticed)

Bump. Still need one. He didn’t have the “TC4”

[Kyle Riedel]

Still looking.

this is for the cr80 correct?

[Kyle Riedel]

No the fluid should not be causing that. Not if its made for tranny. I believe I have like a standard 5/10w in mine. Also don’t put too much in. Sounds like the clutch spring are weak.

Update: I have got all the bugs work out of my motor! has been running good until this week when I broke a piston ring on main start.

Its gonna be hard now. You may have to figure it out and find a machine shop. A local racer told me about a month ago that the guy who made them passed away. I’m not sure how true this is, but it explains why sharkshifter is out of them.

I know about the 3rd gear. But that’s not what I’m looking at. Shark shifter has a 3rd gear set that another site says is only used on 82-99 models. Which until yesterday I believed to have a 2001. I talked to Honda direct and they were able to tell me its a ’97. What Honda told me is that “set” (m3/4,c3,c6) was “superseded” in 2000 to individual gears sold seperately with new numbers. As far as learned last year the gears are the same from around 96-+. With all the confusion I’ve run into trying to find gears I no longer know for sure. I’m hoping someone here can sound off with some knowledge and list all the changes through the years after it changed to water cooled.     My project has been rather testy. Started out with a motor that was way worn out on top. Replaced top end and limped through last year. While I gathered parts. I put an OEM eq. Wiseco crank. Namura piston and a replated cylinder on it this winter. but still had one plague after. going into 4th gear it would chatter and rev like it was going in and out of gear.

heres a tech question. does the trans use the same gears in all year models? im looking at the 3rd gear set on shark shifter, but found it cheaper on another site. theres only one set on SS, but the other site’s saing it wont work in my 2001. they have it listed or 1982-1999 year models. ive only been in the class for a year now and i seem to remember when doing research last year, the gears are the same from ?’96 on?.
