4 Tips for Performance Engine Building


Are you ready to take your motorcycle or ATV to the next level? Whether you are a casual rider or a serious competitor, increasing the performance of your motorcycle or ATV's engine is a thrill like no other. To feel the full power of your machine's capabilities is a dream come true for many motorcycle and ATV owners. Yet, performance engine building is not a simple task. As such, it is a process that needs to be taken seriously and done with precision in order to guarantee the best results. If you are ready to increase the performance of your motorcycle or ATV, here are a few simple tips to consider.

1. Replace the Camshafts

If fuel is the lifeblood of an engine, the camshaft is the heart. Therefore, giving your machine a stronger will help determine the amount of power your engine produces. The camshaft also affects where within the RPM range the maximum power will be achieved. Replacing the camshafts with higher-quality parts is generally the easiest and least expensive way to increase an engine's performance, though it can become more costly if you replace other parts and do a little machining along the way.

2. Increase Compression


Increasing the compression ratio in your engine involves changing the ratio of the maximum piston volume to the minimum compressed volume of the fuel and air mixture in your engine. As a result of the increased compression, the fuel and air burn faster. In turn, this increases both horsepower and torque across the entire RPM range. As a secondary benefit, it also helps your engine burn more cleanly and efficiently. Some methods for increasing compression include surfacing the head, installing a thinner head or base gasket, decking the cylinder or using pistons with a different profile. When raising compression, the goal should be to increase it to the point just before detonation. Keep in mind that you may need to raise the octane of your fuel after increasing compression.

3. Install Titanium Valves


If your engine came with steel valves, you can increase red line by upgrading to titanium. Not only are titanium valves stronger, but they are also more lightweight. When it comes to increasing performance, reducing weight is always beneficial.

4. Reduce Friction



Reducing friction within your engine will help your engine achieve its full horsepower potential. To reduce friction, use ceramic bearings and Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) coatings. Ceramic bearings are also available for front and rear wheel bearings.

amaha Thailand at the 33rd Thai Motor Expo has launched the Yamaha Aerox 155 in Thailand. The automatic scooter was first unveiled in Malaysia in April 2017, where it is sold under the name Yamaha NVX 155. Other markets where the Aerox 155 is retailed include Indonesia, Vietnam and the Philippines. READ DAytona exhaust The design language in the Yamaha Aerox 155 has a clear resemblance with the MT series of motorcycles. Features include a 25 litre storage, LED headlamp and taillamp, fuel tank lid placed on the central tunnel, mobile charging point, 140 mm and 14 inch rear tyre, and a digital instrumentation. A special Yamaha Aerox 155 R has also been introduced which gets petal disc in the front and a gas charged sporty rear suspension. An ABS enabled version is also available which gets a smart key and start/stop system. A smart key system helps the rider to use just 1 key for the scooter, be it for accessing the under seat storage or fuel tank lid. The start...

Three Reasons You Should Consider An ATV

Gambar
People who enjoy an active lifestyle need a vehicle that matches that lifestyle. If you spend a significant amount of your time outdoors, owning an ATV will further expand the activities you can participate in. Every year, nearly 200,000 of them are sold across the United States. They are purchased by police departments, parks, families, utility companies, fishermen, and hunters, to name a few. Here are three reasons why you should consider one of these vehicles. 1. Cover More Ground, More Quickly Everybody likes to get places faster. If it is a choice between the freeway and back roads, people take the freeway. If there is a shortcut, it gets used. An ATV is your way of getting places outdoors quicker. With the ability to handle off-road terrain, quads allow their riders to go cover ground that cars can't, at a pace much faster than walking. Due to their tight turning radius, they can also navigate obstacles such as boulders and trees that would normally block...
