ken oconnor strikes again

[Surfrjag]

a running motor is awsome

 

[Larry's Shee]

So did Ken assemble the engine or did you? Just porting? Fresh bore? New crank?
Superstock porting? That's a new one8-|. How does that compare to a stage III, play, aggresive, hardcore port job?

Tho it sounds just like any other Banshee, pretty lame vid (yawn)

Aaawww man do i have to burn rubber the rears are brand new haha
Next videos will be more action packed and a big thanks to ken for an awesome motor

You don't actually have to burn your tires off for a video to be worthy of a title like "strikes again". However at least movement on the part of the quad might help....

As it sits, I see pipes and a coolhead on what COULD be a completely stock engine sitting there idling. Hardly "strikes again" worthy...

Ken did the whole motor machining assembly it is a stage 3 port job .20 over wiseco piston new rods stock stroke welded crank 21cc domes in cool head and the video was just shot quick in my driveway nothin special sorry and the strikes again is referring to kenss motor not the video lol

Just funnin a little
So Ken rebuilt your crank? What did it cost parts/labor for just crank?

Porting "terms" are subjective/relative really. Between "clean-up" and "full drag" is a lot of grey area (and not enough "grey matter" on my end). I would have to re-read and re-educate myself to wade through it. When a transfer port is only mean area open for about .00043 seconds@ 8,000rpm what grey matter I have left starts smoking

Don't take this wrong, not flaming, looking for a ride report as to how Ken's "experiment" 8-| does. Kinda got some BHQ undies in a bunch LOL

BTW, vid sounds good, no unusuall noises, idles smooth I:I

 

[JonS]

ken does awesome work man. you should be thrilled with it.

 

[yamaha28]

haha "experiment" I am excited to see how she rides, video is needed ASAP! I'll be surprised if it's any less then a perfect engine!

 

[cav4ever]

I can handle the funnin i saw that bhq boys got a little crazy when kens name was brought up that's why we named it the experiment lol but in all seriousness ken was in contact with me every step of the way right down to whether or not i wanted the jugs painted or not as far as pricing i don't have the slip in front of me at the moment but shoot him a messageand i promise to make the next video more action packed i appreciate all of the input
