Switch Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 (edited) Yep, got home from work with a bit of good daylight left I FINALLY got the Hyper tuned on the 16% fuel! Had 2 tanks worth left and used them completely, then went onto the Byrons 25% stuff I have. A few tweaks and its roughyl 90-95% tuned, but enough to have its first bash! The lane outside my house is perfect bashing ground for smaller stuff, but I thaught I'd give the hyper a go on it...finally it gets muddy! As you can see by the second pic, I need to trim the shell a bit for the exhaust. Also found out how tough they are by accidentaly jamming the front nearside wheel under the heavy wire mesh on the bottom of the driveway gate, took a fair tug to get it free but the wheel popped back up to where its supposed to be and I was off again....the 3.5mm mesh stayed bent! Bit more tuning tomorrow and we should be there! (if it doesn't rain) Well pleased! :D Edited February 1, 2008 by Switch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobsomebody Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 is going from 16% to 25% advisable? I might go to 20% then see how that works out. Looks nice, I still have yet to get mine covered in mud, seems like I have had problem after problem with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunderwolf Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 16-25 is fine, so long as you let the engine bed in for half a tank, you can take it from 16-30 if you realy wanted to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
