Man that bike sounds good! How did you weld the intake in the case?

Re: Combat Wombat max HP or torque

I think your correct Max! Even Arizona said the factory rated off the crank and that it was inflated with the ace100 being 9.8hp and 6.7 tq....100B 10.5 and also 6.7 I don't think 9hp at the rear wheel is out of the question. It would be a lot better if we had 100% correct rpm.....but for now this i...

Re: Combat Wombat max HP or torque

The hp is correct it would only be the tq that would be off on the stock bike......but if you look at the specs that hodaka published peak tq was at the same rpm. So I would say it is close.

Re: Combat Wombat max HP or torque

This is a overview of the two dyno runs and as you can see Rogers bike is slightly rich and my bike was way lean on the bottom and at about 5000 rpm and that could be causing the flat spot at around 5000 rpm. I've been working on that and hope I've got it closer now. One thing I would like to try is...

Re: Combat Wombat max HP or torque

Make your guess on hp and tq at what rpm for a stock model 94 with the only mod being 10 thousandths off the head. I think Roger is going to post the dyno later today.

Re: Combat Wombat max HP or torque

Okay.....I thought that the two piston photos was funny and that everyone could tell that it was a joke. The dyno runs are real and the piston like I first said (not the one with the holes in the side that was a joke) started out as a new combat wombat piston from Paul. The first run was made with t...

Re: Combat Wombat max HP or torque

2000 rpm is when the dyno run started that's why it goes straight up there.

Re: Combat Wombat max HP or torque

Also as I said earlier the intake has been modified and looks nothing like a 03. That is why the hole is in the middle of the piston.

Re: Combat Wombat max HP or torque

The hole is in the center about 1/2 inch above the bottom of the piston it is about 5/8 inch wide and the same hight as the new wisco piston. The carb is a 28mm pwk with the reeds that Rich sent. The tire is a 3.50 universal.

I've used a heat gun in one end and a torch on the outside at the same time to burn my pipe. I seen a tool like the one in the video for sale on a RD350 forum...if I find it I will post a link.

Re: Riding to Athena

Mike....I don't think I'm going to do the 1000 miles now but I will still ride up to Athena on my bike. We've got it running close to what it was. I will post some photos on the FB hodaka fan club of my ride up there and I hope to do the 650 miles in one day.

Re: Flyingdog's cylinder

The cylinder is a 03 porting was a very mild port job that just worked good. Again Rich knew I was not making a race motor...your mx motor may be the best ever made and I'm glad it worked out for you.
