    Hey man how’s the invader coming been working on mine the last while ran a compression test and it hit 170 … dose that seem abnormally high to you ?

      It's nearly ready for the race season. I'll be uploading a video when it's all done. Did you happen to swap pistons in yours? The wiseco pistons are made to give a ton of compression. I run about 175 in mine with race gas, and it loves it. It just makes it a pain to pull start😂

      @@Ameritude I honestly just picked this one of a month ago and have been picking it apart what mix do you run your race gas at I was thinking the same thing .. on my test runs I hit 9000rmp ( clutching issues that are being sorted out ) but it started to drop some coolant from the top of the heads working on the clutching as we speak

      Coolant to the out side of the top of the heads droped a camera into the cylinders they look fine and the plugs are nice and chocolate

      @MP-tv9pw Well, I have always run the oil injection because it's fairly flawless. However, this year, I did an oil pump delete and crankshaft swap to be able to run premix because it's simpler. The center bearing on the invaders are also oiled, and without the pump, they can go dry even with premix. I will run 42-1 this year, but that's just what I've always run in my two strokes. Is the intake bridges on yours ported by chance? (Knifed)
