Finally went on a full ride after complete E440 rebuild. Has stock stroke and bore with a ported head and gutted disconnects. Stock airbox, cam timing, exhaust, etc, but fully updated. Currently using a map setup for a 450 stroker for more mid to top end. Starts beautifully hot or cold but runs like a two stroke. Seems to lack on the low end and just doesn't have power till the revs get built up. If I keep it revving high and close to redline it has gobbs of power and can clear jumps great. Just lugging around it feels weak.
Does anyone have any maps that may be a little more broad or just another possibility to try? Figure the ported head knocks out stock map usability. Mostly gonna be riding tracks with some desert and offroading. Plug looks great and seems to be running great, so no problem, just need a different map.
On a side note: on the two wheeled side of things, coming from a kx450f, the E440 is so much smoother to ride and much more forgiving. And the look at the track with the hundred plus stares was classic. A little heavy but still a great ride and fun as can be. Definitely happy with the switch from the Kawi to CDale.
