[Black86tri-z]

what can i do to make my 350 faster without opening up the engine? rite now i have a crappy sounding dg pipe,no air lid kANDn filter,filterware and run good gas has a new plug and a clean carb. bye the looks of the plug it's running perfect. i was racing around the pit this weekend and lost 2 my old black 400ex twice bye less than a trike, i just want to beat my friend on the 4 poke. what should i do? 400ex carb or gearing change? don't want to put alot of money into it just want to beat him on my slowest trike!

Try the 400EX carb and a 450R muffler. I saw a couple trikes at TF and they were pretty good.Get a good headpipe if there isnt one already on it. What octane gas do you run through it? I run 93 in mine and it does make a difference. You could play with the gearing a bit too. Stock is 13-39.

it's kool that the 450 exaust fit's but kinda big for my style(actually have a 450 muff) i run 93 thinking about a 12 tooth front maby

what year 400ex carb should be used?

[jsimonh]

Better exhaust. Better carb.

I have a supertrapp exhaust and the 400ex carb on my X. It runs real strong, but it has alot of internal mods done to it.

If you do a search I'm sure you'll find what year carb to get. I cant remember off hand, but I was thinking they were all the same. It takes a little effort to dial it in, but IMO it is well worth it.

Easiest gain

STEP 1: pull off gas cap

STEP 2: put a TRI-Z under it

STEP 3: put gas cap on

STEP 4: GIVER HELL !!!


or whatever anybody else suggests My 2 pennies

i have 3 other trike's that will smoke him but i have been riding the 350x alot lately because it needs absolutly nothing and is in perfect running order, brakes , clutch engine and my other buddy has a 3 50x so it's fun to ride the same machines togeather!

[neo19672000]

I get it the ole "1 up same machine game" I'm trackin now. Ya I'm right with ya I got my 350X and a buddy of mine had to go get one with a big bore and electric start.
