Stroker options
« on: June 10, 2012, 09:25:32 PM »
This has probably been discussed but I can't find anything that relates to my exact model.  I looked up to see what the cost would be to make my 78 750 crank into a stroker and it's close to $1100.  Are there any alternatives like using a crank from a different engine that won't put a hole in my wallet?

I know that 900 Honda cranks {DOHC} get used i these engines but i don't know a great deal about it....  I think it would still work out expensive because the 900's use a Hyvo chain set up...

i always thought the same stroke as standard 750 but with hivo primary chain.
dohc 900 has +5mm (69mm instead of 64mm), hivo primary as hivo camchain.

Your right Mec.
I just checked it out. The auto does indeed have the same stroke as other SOHC's, @ 63mm I think.
I stand corrected. :-[

:):):) 64mm. originally our sohc was a long stroke engine with 64 stroke and 63 bore.
all the racers made a "quadratical" engine with 64x64 or short stroker with 64x65bore out of it.

Theres alot of mods to do going this route especially since I would need HiVo chains.  At that point getting one made might be the easier option.

((PI x (Radius x Radius)) x Stroke) x Cylinders = Displacement

A stock Honda SOHC 750 is 61mm bore x 63mm stroke x 4 cyls = 736cc.
A stock Honda DOHC 750 is 62mm bore x 62mm stroke x 4 cyls = 748cc.

63mm bore x 64mm stroke x 4 cyls = 798cc
64mm bore x 64mm stroke x 4 cyls = 823cc
65mm bore x 64mm stroke x 4 cyls = 849cc

Was using shorthand.  ;)

I didn't show the conversion from cubic millimeter to cubic centimeter. Divide by 1000.

5 mm increase on the stock 750 crank was the limit to oil the bearings where the oil hole is no longer centered. The 900F cranks (US) are heavier and require mild clearancing to the main webs to drop in. To run in a clutch bike, you'll use early Gold Wing clutch parts attached to the 900F primary chain. The 900F crank ends were set up opposite the SOHC 750's, so you have to cut off the snout on one end and machine it for your points plate. The other end is tapped, but I haven't yet heard of anyone connecting starter gear to it. I run one with an external starter. The cam chain is also different between the two. I run a 3 mm spacer below the sleeves for that crank. I put mine in for less than $1,100, but I am racing an automatic.
Almost forgot the primary chain tensioner which must be added for street use. I don't believe that +6 mm is the limit in the 750 case. Big Jim can stroke the 900F cranks as well. (I asked him at Valdosta) ;)

We start running into clearance problems with the bottom crankcase from memory.
