Holy crap ADNOH-your amazing dude, really are, dam, I got lost in the first sentence.How do you just do whatever it si that you do-err, well-- you know what I mean-amazing stuff for sure.

looks really great. I would have a hard time riding it ... its too pretty.

thank you sunblock

few more pics.everything has bin fitted and plumbed.hopefully i will have the new head studs for next weekend

Do I see we have a pair of Odyssey's?

Any plans for #2?

Rand

that's my buddies machine.you never know.ive got a spare cylinder and have a few revision ideas from this project

finally up and running.hopefully can get upstate next weekend for some plug chops

Just a heads up. Thought I read a pos awhile ago abot the clear
radiator hoses being used and bursting on someone. Scarred them
up pretty good. Not sure what thread it was but just wanted
to give you a heads up. Kevin. Ps nice ody

thank you.

I believe that the blow off pressure for the YFZ radiator cap is 15 pounds so if the hose is rated for at least 20psi you should be good to go. With the nylon weave within the hose it's probably rated for twice that!

What did you use for an overflow bottle? Thank god I had one on my initial ride with Turbo because I had a leak where one of the water fittings threaded into the head. I forgot to bring my back up antifreeze/water mix and it was the antifreeze/water in the overflow bottle that allowed me to ride until I got it fixed. I didn't tighten the water fitting into the head tight enough and had a slow leak. I could smell hot antifreeze but just couldn't find the leak until I got it back home.

Rand

I am glad you found it!!! Did you use plumbers tape???

Yeah, I just didn't tighten it enough during the initial install.

Rand

the hose is rated for 150 psi so it should be ok. nothing mounted yet for the overflow,still a work in progress.ill rig something up to get me by for the plug chops.

Love your stuff there Jim,great work indeed.But I too am worried or concerned about the Clear bias reinforced rad hoses.I see you say that they're rated for 150psi,but that is pressure only...are they rated for ??? temp?

thanks bugeye59.the guy at the hydraulic shop said it would work fine.i know they use it on industrail dish washers and the sanitize mode it hits 190 temp so hopefully it will work.im going to see if i can find a rating for it though just to make sure.

wow amazing job man. i just got my power pros exhaust and am building some different brackets for it because it aims directly at the frame rails. does yours do this?? i didnt c any pics of the silencers spout.

anyway, u think this thing will lift the front tires?? lol. that would be F*ckin sic...

where in upstate NY do u go?? i live in VERY upstate NY

thank you.i have property in deposit NY about 30 miles from bingimton NY.my exhaust does the same thing

ok got a chance to get upstate for some run time.after a bunch of plug chops, 3 retorques of the head,and checking the compression after each run 175 psi.this thing runs great.pulls hard all the way through the power band with no hesitation at all.temps on the water cooling were good no overheating at all even when crawling through the tight stuff in the woods temp stayed around 140 to 160 with no fan use during the run.the vent system for the crank case worked well too.it burped up about a half a shot glass worth of oil on my first couple runs and that was it.the overflow bottle stayed clean the rest of the time.the only problem i had is with the comet 102c clutch.it gets stuck fully engaged after a hard pull.if i putt around a little after the run it would release.i pulled the cluthch apart to inspect really cant find any problems.i think it might need a little more comet lube.i applied it very sparingly the first time.i would like to thank all who have given me the great tech support on this project nukem,hoser,Mudbogger,randman ect.i don't think this project would have turned out the way it did with out the great tech support that i recieved from all the great members here.thank you all.didnt get a chance to shoot any vidio this time.hopefully next time.heres a couple pics

pics

ok enough of the PRE-RIDE pics??? Where is the covered in MUD Pics???

very nice machine...can't believe how clean you got the Engine and trans...also thanks for posting the pic of your pipe..cause now i know what pipe i have..it the same one...

Very nice looking 350 great job.

thank you and thank you hoser for a great web site.

so your exhaust blows right out on that frame rail doesnt it? having any probs with it burning the paint off? also looks like u had the issue with the exhaust leaking between the pipe and silencer. does what u did there fix?

high temp rtv let it sit for 24hrs before you run it.no its not burning the paint yet.
