Qlink Xf200 tuning
[img]
About to start the tuning process on the Xf, got all the items from Jets R Us and it only took about 3 days from Mo to Fl shipping. The 16T counter shaft sprocket, jets a 35 and 125, 127.5 mains, so we'll see what combination works best. So far the bike is stock with the needle clip in the 4th position and running an E3 plug. I'm trying to research the Hotcams Drz 125 stage 1 cam, just wait for them to return some emails about some specs. will add some more pictures as it goes[/img]

Hotcams Drz 125 stage 1 cam.
Interesting. That's a new one on us but I bet it could make a big difference.

Interesting.
I bet the 'extra' camshaft gear on the Q/Suzuki camshaft goes back to the days when Suzuki used to drive the tach off a cable hooked up to the camshaft. With the electronic tachs nowadays it is vestigal, like an appendix.

You bet. In Canada it's called a Konker.
Do the Chinese know how to name stuff or what? :wink:

I found their corporate site, but none of their listed dealers show any Konker bikes :roll:
It looks like $3k listed price. IMO, that's a little much. |

For BC youd have to pay HST (ugh) and duty but it would still be cheaper. Dont know if the QLink could be registered here though, thought about buying one used and tranferring some of the parts to my Saga

Hey brothers, let's form an underground chinabike railroad so everyone can enjoy what they deserve. A good riding time!
Ya, that was a little weak, didn't put enough thought into it, sorry about that. |

Dang. Went to 4 sites looking for info on this stage 1 cam, including hotcams. Wouldn't show up for a Suzuki.
Anyone got a link?
