your 440 with a 11:1 comp ratio? i also have a sparks advance key in it and am debating taking it out or use a diffrent cdi box for a diffrent ignition curve.

i figure running 1 gallon of 113oct to evry 4 gallons of 91oct?

or should i just run straight race gas in it? what do you guys suggest? i run in the socal dunes. mostly buttercup, gordon's and such. elevation is @ sea level. i ride pretty easy and dont race it much but a few times up the hill and such.

lemme know what you guys think. thanks.

my buddy, batavia's450r on here is his name, his dad has the same setup, he runs straight race gas. I heard with high comp and a big bore you should run race gas. if not, id do 50/50 not 1:4 like you said, you want more race gas then 1/4

if you can come up with a 101 octane that works good.

i would lose teh advance key for sure, especially if your goin with an aftermarket CDI.

but for the fuel, i have an 11:1 426 adn can run 93 in it but in warm weather it will ping, so i runa 50/50 wix of 93 and klotz 113.

yea, sounds like 50/50 is the way to go.

ill try out the advance key in it and see what happens...... worse came to worse i can pull it off. its usually pretty cool when i head out to the dunes.
