I put a Bender can on my son's 97MM700. What RPM should I clutch the engine to spin?
I see in the Yamaha manual that the stock RPM target range is 8050 to 8550.
Yet, I thought I read in the Yamaha technical update manual that the shift RPM target was 8,300 RPM?
I spoke to Bender racing this past summer and he said the 97 models made roughly 7 hp with their 97 Bender can. The later models did not show an increase in hp with their cans. Why? I bought the one I have used so I have no idea if it's a 97 Bender can or a later model.
The bottom line is, do I want to spin the engine with a Bender can at whatever the appropriate RPM the stock pipe is to be run at or should the RPMs be increased slightly with a Bender can?
Thanks
Frosty
