nope its the pic mate spanner is perfectly capable of inspecting parts for wear, just as Steve is perfectly capable of knowing there is nothing wrong with his 650.
the point with the dyno figures is that anyone who thinks their 400 in any state of tune compares in any way to steves 650 based on the graph in question has a serious intelligence deficiency. Evidently race wins don't change ones IQ
3 points you still cant grasp:
1) the valve in question is already too short so the sinking helps with the valve length (don't you think im smart enough to know what happens at one end of a valve when you move the other LOL)
2) the total increase in head volume in this head required to increase the flow over original after sinking 0.5mm is less than 1cc including the volume gained by lowering the valve itself
3) total change in compression for all practical purposes from this is negligible and if you set the squish properly the compression is raised and the loss is negated.
Taffwad if you accuse me of lies and mechanical incompetence in any thread i will bring up what ever is needed to put your comments in perspective. If you play nice I won't mention a single thing... entirely up to you.
in this thread for example all you had to do was post you had 32mm valves available.. simple ..
since you ask ... your claim that the IWIS cam chain is 30% lighter and 30% stronger than standard is complete BS this is verified by others. the IWIS is 6% heavier. yes it is a good chain .. no need to use false advertising to sell it.
your claims about your valve spring specifications reducing seated force over OEM conicals by 40% were proven to be completely wrong by comparing your own figures with the OEM conical seated force. I tried to tell you privately in 2009 that the figures didn't add up and got told I was being far too anal.
the oem seated force is a finite value verified by many competent people. The KTM DVSK is a fraction of the price of yours and has the same coil count and wire diameter. The Kibblewhite set is the best.
attacking my integrity won't help: nobody has to believe a single word I write, the OEM specs VS your claims are proof enough
again .. you play nice from here on and I won't bring up a thing.
