    Eugene's number and contact is in the thread. That's cool about this bike, I'm pretty bummed that it got a rod knock, but it might have been my over eager throttle hand....in other words I just spun it up to high. There seemed to be a soft rev limiter around 11k but it reves so quick it blew right through that. Anyway we are going to get this thing back together soon. I'll post a dyno chart when it's done. cya Pete

    great news....the RC30 motor is not junk. Chip pulled it apart and the knock was from a out of round connecting rod wrist pin. Easy fix and back on the road. yea Chip! Your the man!:rock:

    Chip is half the man at best.

    joec brace yourself

    cool! that rc30 is sexy.

    just a little note on acs racing. i used to know those guys about 10 years ago through another buddy. they were quite a bit smaller time than they are now. but i know todd henning was sponsored by them back in the day. then they did some work on a few of his vintage motors also. great guys who really know what the hell they are doing. if youre up around that way, worth checking out. about 7 or 8 years ago they built a nitros hummer. thing was rediculous. im sure buff knows quite a bit more about the relationship todd with them. guys build some super fast shit.

    You don't want to see his place. It will make you throw rocks at your favorite bike you own now.

    I've got to ask. How many battery tenders do you own? :)

    Stick here's your chance. He wasn't specific about where you had to ride to and back. He certainly wasn't clear about the back part of that. :)
