Well.... I just sold my YFZ 450 today. I got enough to pay it off, pay next months rent, and I'll have about 250 left. I have a 2013, 086 and my RTR pipe. I want to get an engine and bump box but I know I'll need a pipe was just hoping I could put it off for what I got for a couple weeks so I could get the box.... The AE comes with a POS drill start. I know 250 isn't quite enough but was hoping I could get close to that number and give the Go's a try. My other option is to get a motor that runs with the 2013 or 086.... know what I'm sayin....
what brand 086 do u have ?

Go back to stock settings and tune as per instructions on our web site to ensure the idle gap is correct before you do anything else.

That holding of the revs while jumping is indicative of the idle gap being too wide. That will mean the bottom end is too rich, and correspondingly the top is too lean, which is why you will be having lean bog trouble below half a tank.

Sriley... If you haven't heard yet AE's tanks are notorious for leaking even brand new mine did brand new first time I fired the engine up. I switched to a D8T tank. Only 11 bucks on A-Main and they have a clunk in them. Can't beat that deal. Just use a servo horn to bridge the gap on the front mount. I've seen at least 5 leaky AE tanks in the 6 months I've been racing...

I just wanted to take the time and congratulate Ryan Lopez and Cole Ogden on first and second place finishes in the Georgia Championship Series. The show was between Ryan and Cole for the TQ spot, with Ryan eventually winning TQ and 1st place.
Also, I would like to congratulate Daniel Ornelas for placing 2nd in buggy at the RC Pro Texas State Series last weekend.
Great job guys!

Just to share with you. I just came from the track testing the new VP PRO RS-3 Truggy pipe ... i installed on my D8T Truggy over a GO Engines GX5R .21 engine.
WOW, very pleased with the performance, but specially with the runtime. I always got about 9 1/2 and 10 minutes out of this engine on same track using 7mm insert, today after some engine tuning and changing the pipe, i ended on 7mm insert too but geting between 12 1/2 and 13 minutes with lot of consistency.
cya !!

I was all wrapped up in my stupid Revo yesterday and did not get a chance to see how you finished.I did watch most of the Amain but did not see the end. Some how I did not finish a single qualifier in S Buggy or MT yet pulled out the win in both in the mains.I think I should play the lottery this week

Imo if you go back to stock settings you'll be richening both low and high speed needles and be even further from where you want to be. You probably aren't too far off from the sweet spot, but you will need to set the idle gap first to .8mm. After that fatten up the hsn just a little and lean the bottom end. Of course only do this after it has been properly warmed up. Then lean out the lsn an hour at a time until you get the proper throttle and idle response. Then work on the hsn until you don't get any lean bog and have plenty of good smoke. It'll take you 2-3 tanks or more to get it just right, but when you do you'll know it. The hsn is very sensitive on my go engines, alot more so than the lsn. 1/2 hour turn makes a huge difference between rich and lean settings.
