Nitro Injected SOHC2
« on: August 15, 2013, 07:28:09 AM »
I just found this picture on Facbook of my 150/175 Honda taken in 70 or early 71.
Very poor quality picture so here goes.

Just 50% Jay and that was by volume, Didn't have a hydrometer.
I guess it would have varied some but it didn't seem to make much difference.
We once filled it from the wrong can and mistakenly loaded it with neat Nitro.
It ran OK off load but wouldn't have it when asked to pull the bike, might have worked with some more advance.
It got to expensive to run in the end so we reverted back to just Methanol.

Jerry/Mark, I guess I'm going to have to post a picture of me as I am now, I have more hair now than I did back then, trouble is, It's all BLONDE now. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

I think the RS weighed around 140lbs without the nitrous system (big bottle) The Benly was just under 120lbs.

I've had the wool pulled over my eyes before, but that does look like you Sam!

It must be tough keeping the women off with the "new look" you handsome brute.

OK I give.  The bike looks cool, although I'm sure the RAF is somewhat miffed about the missing nose cone.  By the way who's Mk2 is that in the back ground?

Hi Brian, the car was a 3.8 S Type Jaguar (ex Police car) and belonged to my good friend Paul who transported our team with the 2 bikes in the boot (trunk), sadly he passed away many years ago.
He was the guy with the Bike who we all turned to when our bikes broke down when we knew no difference.
I guess we all had to start somewhere and Paul was a good teacher.

Thanks for the info Sam.  Always liked the Mk2's, and the 3.8's were the best version.  Very quick cars, handled well, and still hold their own in vintage racing today.  Had lots of Brit sportscars (MG, Spits, Lotus) over the years, but the only Jag I ever owned was a Series 1 E type coupe.
