I needed this one, really

Post by Tarwetijger » Sat Sep 24, 2016 9:12 pm

Bought another one today. :D

Image

If only I had my own dyno to compare all the interesting parts:
left vs. right
Mikuni TDMR vs. FCR's
Kent vs. OVER cams
Sanddune valves vs. OVER valves
JE pistons vs. OVER (?) pistons
Carrillo vs. titanium OVER conrods
UPSD & öhlins vs. WP front/rear
Akra headers vs. OVER exhaust system

Plan is to make the left one my daily commuter with an original spare engine.
The right one has to be the track tool. So a combination of all the interesting parts, including the 6 gearbox of course. The Marchesini's I still have will also fit straight in.

Cracking bikes (both) where do you find the spec sheet on these beauties? I'd have to have one like this too... and deal with the consequences later! ;)

The 'new' one is not added yet, though.

Too much pressure on the polisher..
Aprilia end cans are a good source of titanium
