Toasted my bike two weeks ago..

Rebuilt this week, over span of several days! Same parts, cleaned up and decarbonized head, wetsanded cyl and cleaned up piston and rings. Reassembled with proper squish using only two base gaskets, which I didn't check before and thats that! haha Basically most of my Corsa was salvageable, looks like failure occured due to low oil, 40:1 just wasn't enough for long WOT highway runs I guess :lol:

Now running 145main, 52pilot at 32:1 premix and 37g in keli vari.

Was trying to take it easy but already raced a 2008 Mustang GT tonight, stuck with him for first two gears couldn't help it lol :twisted:

Run 25:1
I am not a mechanic, nor do I play one on TV. Actually my advice is probably worth slightly less than what you pay to view it.

are you saying it wojuld not do it before?? that is strange. i figured yours would be doing that the first time hyou built it with the top end you had .. mine with the corsa build will and does from the stop and rollon s and the one with the molossi will also with the small 24 mm carb and a pipe similar to the ri but the top end is not even close to the corsa builds. glad to see your rocking again . one thing i learned when i put my buildss together is peeeka t the float level . both of mine carbs were wayyyyyyyy off. meaning they would not let the bowl fill up so it would cause a issue at the high rpm.s easy fix for sure and it changes the way it runs a lot
