SDC Performance UK News

Here at SDC Performance we have been an authorised Dynojet Tuning Centre for over 15 years now. So in that time we have stripped and rebuilt a lot of carburetors. Recently we had a streetfight GSXR750 come in that was running at best on only 1 or 2 cylinders, the bike it turned out had been left standing for a couple of years. As can be seen in the pictures below petrol left inside a motorbike that has been stood up for a long period of time can have a devastating effect.

After stripping out the float bowls, mains, pilots, floats, slides, needles etc ... we ventured deeper into the emulsion tubes !! - BEFORE

This is the same items cleaned and ready for re assembly of the carbs. This required use of an acid bath, hss needle drills and a gentle buffing wheel, as can be seen the difference is incredible - AFTER

We had a request from a customer about modifying a Triumph 675 to a side exhaust outlet. As standard the Triumph 675 has the underseat exhaust system, very nice, but also the same as every other 675 on the road. Using a Titanium Akrapovic exhaust outlet, we modified the standard exhaust headers and machined a bracket to hold it in place. Not the simplest of jobs and quite time consuming. But the end result was very satisfying and one very trick looking Triumph 675 !!
