RXC

Post by Vampire »

well ive just clocked about a 125+ km on the new 5 speed barrel (the bike is a 4 speeder) which has been worked on my ron the god (street port) . its running on the stock CDI , and stock air filter...

the Chinoy Filter's that ive got havnt been installed till now..will be getting that done tommorow..should be getting the rdd cdi soon...running rite now on a ma 200 main jet ...

yesterday after doing about a 100kms i reved the bike in 2nd and 3 rd and the bike was fluttering..though somethin was wrong...called up ron and he said get the Chinoy Filter on and see if u still have that problem....

today motorhead came over to my place to see what the problem was and to help me install the Chinoy Filter..i need some tips about that frm u guys..cas on the 135 theres a rod (part of chassis) that comes out rite behind the carb..so the Chinoy Filter cannot be fitted straight onto the carb..and the air box hose is too short for it to be installed behind the rod..lets see if i get a longer hose tommorow..also the battery will have to go if i install it that way..guys please advise me on how i must go about with this...

so anyways since we couldnt get the Chinoy Filter installed today , rohit with me sitting pillion took the bike for a short spin without the air filter to find out what exactly the problem was...just as we came out of the workshop the bike power wheelies in 1st gear...rohit weighing 90kgs+ and me 65kgs+...the bike revved smooth and was moving fast...in third gear the bike went upto 80km/hr! (dont have a tacho installed as yet)

before with chambers the bike would go to 60km/hr after pinning the throttle and it would take some time for it to reach 60km/hr . On the cat. con it would go upto 45-50 km/hr and if i dint upshift the piston would come out thru the fuel tank... atleast it felt like that.....

the problem now and even before is that after upshifting to fourth after pulling in 3rd the bike just goes completely out of the powerband...

rohit pulled in 3rd till 80km/hr and then upshifted to 4th . the bike just went out of the powerband...and i guess it would take some time before it built up revvs and got into the powerband again (in 4th)....any reasons? advise?

Cant wait to get the RDD digi CDI and Chinoy Filter's installed :D...i just got the stuff 2 days back and i cant wait for the bike to fly ...dint push the bike other than these 2 times as im still running it in....

GREAT JOB RON! the work that you do is just amazing.... will keep updating this post as things progress. Thanx again Ron!

We'll try to fix the cdi tomm, and also the Chinoy Filter. Then I think the bike will revv out much stronger and higher after that, prolly it will improve the 3rd to 4th gear scene. What we were running today was a crappy ignition system showing it's lameness at high revs. But the powerband felt much wider than what I expected for a single cylinder on stock bore.

You have a lot of limitations on the build. Its runing stock 20mm carbs.
Its runing stock RXG reeds.
Plus Ive given it a simple stage II port. Nothing fancy cause this is your only bike and a comuter.
Keeping all this in mind if it can outpull all the 4-Jokes on the road and a few bullets. You should be happy.
THe installs Ive seen on the RXG is they take the pipe that joins the carb to the air box is used.
YOu rotate it and use it with the Chinoy Filter. The Chinoy Filter sits at an angle and dosent touch the frame.
PS: Hope you guys arent trying all these stunts two up.
Reminds me of two jokers riding two up on a RXG to a race.
RD guys dont ride two up cause it snaps power. Doing two up on a 135 is just absurd.

if we use the RD carb will it function better than the stock RX135 4SPEED (with a 200 main jet) carb?

I guess, but jumping from a 20mm to a 28mm carb might be an over kill, as in a jetting nightmare. But the top end would be better on a vm28, right ron? Prolly gas mileage would go down too,

One of the reasons I can see for the bike getting out of the powerband when upshifted to 4th is the crappy pipes. And Vampire dont ride doubles at all till you finish the running in and even otherwise try to avoid it.

Yeah Id second that. i.e. dump the desi pipes and try stock RXG pipe with a straight thru baffel.
Or ask the guy who designed your pipes if he has some other design you can try on the bike.
Preferblly something with a tapered header.

just amazing...the mech was asking us..ur putting this on for sound? we were like yeah :D and man its like a gunt..a snarl and then a scream..just awesome...and wait wait the best part is yet to come..the RDD CDI ...man i can just imagine what this bike is gonna do...im running her in carefully...not going above 45km/hr just wanted to see how she performs with the Chinoy Filter so thats y the small bursts by rohit and me...before even with the chamber (fak the cat. con) in first gear the bike would hit a wall after moving a lil and not move or rev further... max was like 15-20km/hr and she wouldnt buldge beyond that in 1st gear...today it was like 20km/hr in 1st gear and i felt like i was in the 2nd gear!!...and i hadnt even gotten into the powerband!!! just awesome...here are the pics...it doesnt look very neat but we did it ourselves...having a problem uploading pics will post them as soon as possible...when the panel is put on the bike looks completely stock if not for the chamber which im gonna remove and put on the stock silencer tommorow...

vampire, you should listen to indianchief and chinoy and test with "dump the desi pipes and try stock RXG pipe with a straight thru baffel.". they know what they are sayin.

What r & d, frigin kid stuff man. I'm not exactly sure how well the Chinoy Filter fitment is plumbed but what we did today was got a 2" PVC pipe section having Outer dia = the Inner dia of the rubber manifold and the filter, we mounted the filter and the manifold on either side of the pipe.

A lot of guys have installed Chinoy Filter's on thier RXGs its not a very hard job.
Rash was suposed to post some pics.

Not to put a damper on your fun. But just imagine the bike with the other goodies on
RDD CDI
RDD Ported reed cage
RDD Chambers
28mm Flatslides

Youll understand the term RD *beep*.

Im not 100% sure the stock pipes will work better but as we know nothing about the existing chambers you should check it out.
If your still geting detonation you can try mixing 100Ml of NC Thiner with 1 LTR of IOC Preium.
All your deto problems will go away with the Digital CDI as the cruve will make it run cooler at higher RPMs no chance of deto.
