I knew how you meant it and didnt mean imply she needed to loose weight, just sayin the weight loss scenerio never goes how its planned

All the guys i know that got the lecture about the weight got started on a program by the wife, they fell out on it, she stuck to it and she split later

I'm 6'3" at 230 and I get the same lecture

Dude I'm 6'4" but pretty thick build, when we met I weighed 240, man for me at that weight you have to have a good reason for me to keep my shirt on like a wedding or something.

We have been married for 10 years, had pleanty of ups and downs...think we have both pretty much come to the conclusion that we are crazy and perfect for each other....she would deffinetly give me the "should you be eating those" look if I showed up at home with Bob's new favorite treat chocolate chip pancake wrapped sausage on a stick though.

O.K. enough of the Hijack...back to porting tools and self porting 101. Good luck with it guys, if I decide to get my stuff ported it's headed to Roosty....his work felt great on Bob's bike.

My wife doesn't need to lose weight.....I am a fat ass and could use to lose 40lbs easy.

If I was a bit skinnier and looked a little more like I did when we met...yeah I would get paid out more.

this is my current look...not so good. Wife still looks pretty great

Dude if you lost 40lbs you would look like the guy on the tv on the wall....

My current weight 280lbs/65hp stock equals 4.31 lbs per hp
My current weight 280lbs/72hp after porting equals 3.89 lbs per hp
My ideal weight of 240lbs/65hp stock equals 3.69 lbs per hp

As you can see from my fat flow chart the largest power to weight gains were achieved in the gym. As an added bonus I would be able to hang on to the bike longer, ride it faster, and my wife would want to bone more often so I would be happier. It does look like I could keep the wife pretty happy with that porting tool if I got some different "bits" and then I don't have to go to the gym, I could just eat Cheesburgers and polish stuff.

Maybe I'm changing my vote back to owning the porting machine

This was an epic post.... and here is the new emoticon for "Epic Post"

Mojo, can you shrink this down to emoticon size? Thanks

That rad lol.

I was reading more of Erik Gorr's book today and Im getting a better understanding. Probably the best way to learn is run it stock with the jetting dead on. Then pull the jug and take measurements and photos and send it to one of the Gorrs trainees and then study it and ride it when I get it back. I kinda already fucked up once by buying parts on a whim so I think I'll kinda slow it down a bit. I wannna be riding this damn bike before winter...

throwing in the towel already ?

theres 1467 registered members, i think 3 of them have their own porting tools. obviously it aint for everybody and theres no magic book to make you a genuis by tomorow morning but you can learn and only then will you break free of the sheep pack and rise above

. if your going to pay someone atleast have roostius do it. then you can stay on top of bobs brown noser list. good luck my freind

I'm not throwing in the towel. I have never ported anything but women, so I figure having someone doing a proper job, documenting before and after is probably my best bet as far as not hacking up a cylinder and not knowing why or how it is performing worse than stock. Having someone do it right the first time is an investment in my education.

Clydes woman has had her "exhaust port" hogged out by every freelance porter in the tri-state area.....

Here they are... waiting to hog it out some more.

Smart move.... Guess where all porters learned their craft? On someone elses stuff.....

Man this thread on porting tools and technique has all new meaning. At this point I now consider myself an expert porting and polishing master. Unfortunatly like Roosty my technique is secret and this forum has rules about me posting my tool. I do have some references for satisfied customers.

Roosty left his tools at home when we went to Reno....

Good thing!!

Is that the infamous Roosty? In Reno.....man I will get out the garden hose for flow testing and by a dremmel or something.

I bought stuff to test on

Theres 5 500s in the garage with different porting, and 2 more at our shop getting the chassis matinence right now. Theres 3 engines with the TWIRP porting for inventory, Then theres the NEW engine going in the other bike i havent finished yet.
Nothing "prototype" has left the building for someone else

I think i have 11 loose cylinders at the moment too

I was kind of clowning on some of the stuff in this post, and I live in Reno. Seriously after riding your work you could probably do better with a dremmel in my garage than most could with their tools of choice.

It's a free place to stay and I will give you your choice of car's or bike's to drive around on plus pick you up at the Airport and have your choice of dremmel bits

Is that You?

That was a great trip. I dont know how much of the show Jack got to watch, he was incharge of getting us the frozen cheesecake on a stick most of the day.

Welcome to Reno, if you don't like the weather wait a few minutes it will change. Days like the finals last year we call "a little breezy"

ya, pretty shitty, but the adventure back to the stands was the best.
We were out in the valley of speed, the rumor that they were going to cancell the last race came out and we took off to get back to the stands.

We were a few blocks away when the official call was made, but we'd promised ourselves some more cheesecake

With likely more than 1000 people clearing out of the show Bob got that duramax right up to the gate, 30ft from the Cheesecake

It was great!

Man I tell you guys about my weight problem and all I hear about on this web site is cheesecake on a stick and a chocolate chip pancake wrapped sausage on a stick....your killing me. I could weigh 300 by the end of the week no problem!

You trying to make sure I need your porting just to move my fat ass Roosty? I may have to start hanging with Chumlee and get the ktm 600.
