    I have faith in yall, yall will get there. Its gonna be tough, but its not far out of reach. I built a bike and engine for someone awhile back and let me tell you it was tough hitting 60mph. The engine was a stage 3 212, all off the shelf parts which claimed 22+ hp. Idk if thats our end result or not. It had a big aftermarket Mikuni on it built and tuned by me. The frame was a junk Coleman frame that we built as best as possible, with whats available in the aftermarket world. We had 4 or 5 diffrent gear sets. We ran it on Shell V-Power 93 octane pump gas. I can tell you, the built engine was rowdy, but with a 200lbs man on it i think the fastest we ever went was 57mph. I couldnt imagine trying to hit 100+ even with the big boy 236cc. Like you said power and weight isnt everything, you gotta be able to slice through the air resistance with the least amout of drag as possible. I know yall will get there, we will be watching!!

  • @Henrik.Yngvesson
    @Henrik.Yngvesson ปีที่แล้ว +10

    Grind off the tire nobbs and make them slicks. Saves moving weight and rolling resistance. Total bike weight doesn't do much for top speed, only acceleration so for land speed it doesn't really matter, adding weight with a big fairing could therefore be a win as wind resistance has way more effect.

    • @Paulman50
      @Paulman50 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yea, above 60 the wind drag, front and rear, gets multiplied more and more as the speed increases. Just sticking your elbows out can cost 5mph. Years ago I could get 70 out of my Yamaha RD50, mostly by eliminating drag. They also need a 6 stone test pilot.

    The "Heavy Spot" on the front wheel is the VALVE STEM, you have the yellow Circle printed on the tire which is the LIGHTEST part of the tire which is supposed to be mounted on the rim by the valve stem, you have it 180 degrees away which is exactly the opposite of what it needs- You should have let the air out and popped the tire off the bead of the rim and clocked it, and you MAY have needed no weight

    I did some calculations for you.
    Assuming overall tire growth, 10,000 rpm and a speed of 111 mph.
    I know you have a 11 and 13 tooth gear.
    The gear ratio I came up with is either 11/65 or 13/77
    Without taking consideration of tire growth the ratios came out to
    11/56 or 13/67.
    Tire growth was estimated at 1.5 in increase in radius.
    Personally, i feel a 13/72 gear combination would guarantee a triple digit speed, probably about 105mph.

Also a good idea the run the engine on gasoline after each run to get the engine up to temp which will help remove the corrosive methanol from the crankcase. Methanol eats valve springs while the engine sits if you don't change oil enough.

      @goosenotmaverick1156 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      Speed rating requires withstanding at least 30 minutes at that rated speed.
      After that tire integrity is not implied or promised. That's why tires on vehicles that go really fast need to be replaced after hitting rated speeds or higher. Check it out, how tires are rated is actually kind of interesting, if you're into stuff like that. But given you asked this question, I bet you find it interesting 😎

      ​@@larrycarlston4044They're just spitballing. I don't see much research being talked about. It gets frustrating at times as a viewer, but when you're on a one week schedule for videos it's also hard to keep working on the same bike and keep it interesting and keep the views and hype up. If they made it perfect no one would watch and I understand that because perfect is tedious and tedious isnt fun to watch.

    When you guys mount your tire's up try to put them on so that the paint dots on the side of the tire are next to the valve stem. It should help with balancing the wheels.

    You guys should do porcelain wheel bearing for less rolling resistance.

    Why are you not running nitro methanol in it?

    Great test run on the bike! Gotta say that Chevette you use as a backdrop would be mighty sweet rolling down the road!

    Research how much weight plays into land speed racing.
    Now that you've done that, start thinking of things you can add to make it a little more streamlined since mass doesn't affect top speed it only affects how quickly you can change speeds.

    You should make an aero suit. Something you can wear that helps enclose the bike

    I love the look of the new product. Reminds me of a Baby Bull.

    Well, you're worried about the rear tire growing too much, so go to a a slightly shorter rear tire and see how that helps in gearing.

    You didn't break the ton. But a heck of a lot of fun.

    Dude out in Aurora at pcs I popped my tire on my f350 with a shark tooth

    With the amount of tire growth I'm not surprised the gear ratio calculations were off by a bit. That tire grows quite a lot.

    Years ago we used to put strapping tape on the inside of the tire on our rc cars to keep the tires from ballooning and blowing off the rims. Worked great. Just a couple strips all the way around the center where it balloons is all we used.
