Hey whats up guys....I heard someting this weekend at the track that didn't make much since!!!! They had a guy tell me that some people with the LTR's are changing over there EFI to Carb......Is that true, or was this guy was a complete dumbass???

 

[scottmartinracing]

im leanin toward dumbass, i dont even know if thats possible??

if it is you'd have to be a dumbass to even consider it!! :new_tomato:

 

[Clone]

Feathers are going to get ruffled now! :lol:

EFI= best thing ever (not nec. for a drag bike)

 

[hinkle]

i woulda kicked that guy in the balls then pee'd on him ...efi to carb...what kind of fool would do that there is absolutly no benifit to that other than easier jetting well less expiensive

 

[trukinjp13]

It is completely possible. But is completely rediculous. Fuel injection is where it is at. Tuning alone is easier as long as you know what you are doing. This has been addressed before. :searchplz:

 

[sacdaddy03]

Thats what I was thinking to guys....I didn't stop him I just let him keep talking....It made 4 a pretty good laught when we got back to the trailer!!!! So I'm not going to completly rag on him to bad!!! Lol

[trukinjp13]

You give a shade tree mechanic a carb and he can work on it. You give him that new fangled EFI Thinga Ma Jig and he's stumped. He'll figure a way to tune that sucker even if it means putting on a carb.

 

[trukinjp13]

I prefer one tool does it all. The quad will tune for altitude to a certain degree. Come winter time I don't have to worry about being lean and when I get the cash I'll get the fimak to go with the pim then I just hit a couple buttons and voila I have my adjustment. No need to smell like gas or freeze your nuts off. :lol:

 

[hinkle]

HAHHAHA shade tree....they know there stuff, but exactly the way you put it....de-railing....the guy from Horsepower TV (the blonde one, not the hawaian or young guy) dosn't know a GD thing about cars (he owns a mustang) if you didnt know already,,,dont believe me, next time you watch it just look at when "he" works on a car....never shows his face but always got that "rolex" on...hahah junkie now we get it

 

[trukinjp13]

I bet wally would make it work. :scoot:

 

[SandJunkie]

Hey...that Rolex has seem more dirt than the underside of most people's bikes...I wear it in every attic I crawl into and everytime I work on a car or bike...I abuse the crap out of that thing and it has hung with me...one of the best investments I have ever made...I would recommend one to anyone...
But it still hasn't gotten me on TV...

I'm sorry...what was the topic????

 

[hinkle]

you'll b on tv for the junkie fiber in some crazy 80's type commercial like the micro machines one

Maybe after the efi is converted to a carb, the displacement could be downsized to 400cc, the shocks could be swapped out for preload adjustable only garbage, the swingarm could be shortened and changed to aluminum, etc., etc. :wacko: :lol:

In my opinion EFI is one of the best features of the LT-R450. imp:

 

[eatroost450]

I heard the same thing.. something about how bigger injectors arent out and they cant get the power they get from carbs.. just what I heard <_<

 

[AL Elks]

I haven't heard of anyone needing bigger injectors myself. I really don't think you will need bigger injuectors unless you do some MAJOR and I mean MAJOR mods which 99.9% of people won't be doing.

 

[trukinjp13]

Fuel pressure regulator would be great.

 

[Clone]

Fuel pressure regulator would be great.
[/b]

It has one.... there is no way it could work without it. Everytime the pump came on without starting the engine, it would overpressure hoses and whatnot without a regulator. It is bolted to the bottom side of the tank.
