I had it ported, polished, and timing shimmed. He he just gave it alittle pinch. Not because it didnt run good or low compression.

Has anyone tried the ceramic Boca Bearing kit yet ? Did they fit properly ?

Hey gus well im back from deployment hell yeah but i wont get home to my reedy until mid march but i cant wait. Back here in germany I have my old ST-1 with a JP-2 Pipe, will that work well with the 121? thanks guys!

Just broke in my reedy this weekend, very impressed with it so far. Broke it in according to the manual, it ran 3 tanks through it on the box without needing to be restarted, let it cool, did 2 more tanks on the track, then off to race tuning. This motor is a beast in truggy. Its lacking alittle in top end power, but I think putting the 2035 pipe on it will wake that up. I broke it in with a 2050 os. Still have alittle to lean out on top, and just put the other shimm in it, so I'll report back after this weekend.

I see in your sig you race an rc8T, if you are using the stock gearing, it will lack top end with about every motor, if you have a 52 spur, try it. The team uses the 52/14 gearing with the Reedy most places, and I have even been liking a 54/15 at some bigger tracks. Stock gearing is 54/14.

I have the 52, that was the next thing I was going to switch to

Jp-2 works decent with it.

Just an update on my experience with the Reedy. I went to the track this morning to get some time on the new layout and tried to tune my motor in better and after a few hours on the needle here and there I've got her screaming down the Straight with more then I need power in the corners and I got a full 10 minutes with the 7mm, and AE 2035 pipe. Love this motor. Wish I would have had her tuned like this two weeks ago at a trophy race, would have walked away with a trophy. Oh well.

I too have had experience with the JP-2 on a other motors, and it makes good power but tends to eat full like a fat kid with a box of donuts.

Hey Goomba and Brandon thanks for the info. I do plan to use the pipe on my losi 8T 2.0 but if you guys recomned another pipe please let me know. I cant wait to get back to the states and Just open up on my reedy. I already have one (used) but i plan to get another to have just for racing KWIM. But only about 27 more days untill i can get to Hot rods thanks again guys!!

I have tested the Boca ceramic kit and they worked perfectly.

Well Im about to send payment on a reedy 121. Read all the post and Im stoked. I have a nova 9853/41005 header and a dyn 086 pipe and header and wanted to know if this would be ok until I can get the 2035 when the reedys are back in stock. I dont need a lot of bottom but I want the best fuel mileage. Also, what breakin method provides the best mileage and longevity. Ive always used the heat cycle method with the head wrapped heated up to 200 and run from the start making sure not to put a load on it. Is this a good method for this mill or should I run per instructions. Also, how can I tell if I need to send it in to have the crank changed out.

Mine has served me well. Never flamed out, tune always stayed within a few hours from track to track, The head on it is alittle small, but works. I ran 30% Trinity Monster Horsepower with more oil content for the first break-in gallon. Then switched to Byrons Race Blend 30% after. OS P3 Hot Turbo Plugs.

I will be switching it to my back-up and running a GO GX-5R as my main motor this summer.

It seems the "Team Edition" Reedy motor is coming soon. Neobuggy is calling it the Speedy version.

Been talk of it 'coming out soon' for ages

But we finally have something running YAAAYYYY!
