VP NO2 fuel

My KTM has a 13.5-1 540cc engine. I had been running C-12 w/ a 20 shot wet nitrous kit. The bike pulled good, or so I thought. I let Loomis ride it and he thought it should pull harder and recommended that I run C23. The distributor was out, so I bought 5 gals of NO2. I changed out the Cold Fusion nitrous solenoid for a Boondocker one also.
I did a few burnout today in a field by my house- flat moist ground- bike at 73" axle to axle- 15/50 gearing- 18 paddle Dominator tire-2nd gear start. All I can say is Holy Shit! It feels like I added another 20 shot of nitrous. It pulled the front wheel about 1.5' off the ground for the entire distance that I was into the throttle. The bike is friggen sick!
Runs like crap without the spray however, 120+ octane.
Any of you guys running nitrous should buy some- night and day difference.

I bet Stoffers stole it. It's probably framed and hanging in his garage right now.

Brit swapped out his C/F solenoid N2O too, with big power increases as a result.

I found my jersey. It was stuffed in my boot- Unfortunately, I can't tell which one smells worse

That POS solenoid cost me a LOT of races
Ill bet that was the biggest power increase not the gas.

No doubt changing the solenoid helped a lot, but the fuel was a huge difference. My KTM with 15/50 gearing in 2nd is faster than my 500 is in 3rd with the same gearing. The stuff works.

Got a link to the specs on it?

NO2
Recommended for fogger or three-stage nitrous oxide applications with CRs up to 18:1. Higher octane and lower specific gravity than most nitrous fuels. May require enriching fuel mixture more than would be required for C16.
Color: Clear
Motor Octane 120+
Specific Gravity: .699 at 60° F
Because of the lower specific gravity, you might have to jet slightly fatter on the fuel side.

Or just make sure the bottle pressure is a little lower.
