Hi, happy to have found this forum.
I have an 02 Yamaha Vino, with hor. minarelli. Have
been tweeking it for about a year, and am currently trying to
find the correct cylinder head configuration. This is haw it's
set up right now:
Next R pipe, bored out stock carb, Tecnomoto vario with 4.5gr,
Jog 90 belt, ported exhaust and transfers for around 10k,
VForce reeds.
I sanded off the bottom lip of the stock cylinder head, and
ground the pear shaped, stock combustion chamber into a
small cone. Squish is huge, over 60%. Compression is only 100lbs,
but top rpm is 11.8k at 58+mph. Here is a video of this setup:

Wanting more (of course).. trying for 12K and 60mph, I tried
an Airsal T6 head, shaved 2mm, and reshaped a 40% squish area.
Compression is up to 125lbs. Pickup is better, but top rpm is down
to 11.4k. I tried retarding the timing, but it made everything worse.
Question is, maybe you can save me some time, and might know
which direction I should go. Work on the large squish head, to
raise it's compression? Change the cone to a bowl shape, on either
head?
Many thanks for all input
