    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

hmm, please do share more about this nitrous kit.. what kind of shot are you running? Do just run a simple push button switch or do you have it tied into the rpm? where is your jet located at...

Thanks, been curious for awhile
 
hi .. i will post piccies this weekend .i work nights and sleep days so i will take some to post then..the bike runs on a white hawk direct feed cold fusion wet kit ..it feeds direct as the name implies into the air intakes between the carbs and engine block via injectors..the nitros bottle is pressurised at at 750 psi for even flow it can only really used at 7500 rpm and above it is operated via the horn button... push in /realease for 3 secs + this is because it runs out and leaves to much nitros in the system at low revs it can be to much i run a straight through motad exhaust internally carved..AND EXHAUST WRAPPED THIS KEEPS THE MANIFOLD / DOWN PIPES TEMP UP SO IT EVAPORATES ANY UNBURNED GAS OTHERWISE IT COULD IN THEORY EXPLODE it looks better and gives the apperance of a 60s cafe racer/with a low drag fairing... which the whole concept of the bike is based on it runs a 11.00 second 1/4 mile with a TERMINAL SPEED OF 107.MPH AND TOPS OUT AT 118 MPH BLOODY QUICK ON A LITTLE BIKE,,THE CARBS ARE JETTED UP BY 55% AND THE NITROS SYSTEM COST£ 365 to buy and fit the exhaust work was done by a friend and when sprinting runs on wonder fuel and 45% NITROS INCIDENLY THE BIKE IS A 78 RED WITH AND HAS BEEN FEATURED ... BEST WISHES ANDY

Nitro in a 78 425????? and you didn't have to cover the engine block in hose clamps to keep it from exploding? Impressive!

more seriously

how much of an improvement did you get from adding the nitro?

Any regrets?
 
In reply to your original question.
What colour are the plugs? You may only need to re-jet a little.
Oil cooler? never seen one fitted to that engine, do you have an oil light sender on the motor, this is the most obvious spot to pick up feed from. you can then return it via a fitting into the oil filler cap.
