67mph was my best speed to date. 04'zx... New kit, and all the goodies. 64mph is my regular top today.

Well, I'm making about 80kmh, at a struggle, funny, because that was what I was getting with just derestricting the cdi. But , when I get the chance I will be playing with the head and barrel spacers again. Tomorrow afternoon if all goes well. My previous best was needle pointing to the oil warning light. Can't wait to get back there. :)

Yeah, I removed 1 base gasket, 0.4mm, gave me more comp. but detonation. Will ask more about it on my zx50 thread when I am ready to work on it further.

I have a few ideas to throw your way... Getting the heat down to use the compression.

Since removing the gasket the speed is up so when I go to the 7 gram rollers I should be cruisin' pretty well. When you say "getting the heat down" how would you work that? I do have a BR9 plug but if I remember rightly it is not in at the moment. I am using 40:1 fuel / oil, synthetic 2~stroke and the highest octane rated fuel available at the garage, I use Shell V~Power, 98 ron, is same as BP Ultimate,
Caltex Vortex. The funny thing is that my highest speed which was the needle pointing to the oil warning light was achieved before raising the cylinder.
i sometimes wonder if we have the same speedo/dash setup so I will take a pic and post it up. :)

Here is a pic of my dash, the top speed was not actually to the oil light but to the handle of the oil can.
