how about this little cracker
« on: May 29, 2008, 09:49:39 PM »
Have a look at this little motor that a guy in Oz is building, rather a lot of pics but most of the engine on page 2.

It's a CB125 single with the cylinder and head from a Yamaha FZR600 layed down in the old Honda 50 fashion.

        Hey Sam, that is really some kind of work in that bike. I can really appreciate the work in that engine and frame!

Yeah Sam, I recieved the pm (thought I'd replied)
If you see the queen, tell her I'll replace the loaf of bread my decendants stole.
I'm thinking of how to beef up my clutch, keep it together @ 12,000, and how the hell I'm going to make a slippery fairing from scratch,by next march ???
I'm  temped to get a 4 1/2" block of aluminium , a 2007 R6 67mm piston, a Carrillo 'rod, some new valve springs, and a partridge in a pear tree too, but maybe the slipperies 1st ?
I'll decide when I strip her to replace the B/E bolts, and find any evidence the abuse was not kind to her.

Have you had it on a dyno yet? would be interesting to see what it produces. 8) 8) 8)

The Queen said it's OK about the loaf, she forgives your great great grand father. ;D ;D ;D

No Dyno plans in the near future Sam, the closest bike friendly dyno is near 400 miles away.
Tiny
PS,,it would make a great guessing competition though  ???

How about around 20bhp for starters, it must be around that area.

With your ingenuity, I would have thought that you would have built your own Dyno, think how much you could charge your mates to use it. ;D ;D ;D or are your mates 400 miles away as well :D :D :D
