wow, thats fantastic information CULater ! thanx for that.
Dont suppose you can get a full list of blueprinted data on the TRX engine ? tolerances they use, types of bearing (colour codes etc)..
I strongly suspect it WASNT the measurements listed in the normal workshop manual. Im just interested to compare them.

The dyno graphs in the article look a lot like mine (and roughly same power as well).Max wrote:That magazine article on the previous page said it was 98PS and wasn't reving much over 10K.
FWIW, the Taira / Sarron 8hr special was somewhere around 120HP. Mind you this was a behind closed doors factory works project.
I'd love to know what they did to that 8hr bike.

I know (the 8hr bike) had titanium rods, six speed box and probably a shaved and welded up crank. Lots of compression and heavy "factory" cams. Taira rode it at a couple events (demo mode) later and people that saw it said it really snorted, for a TRX that is. Sarron described it as "the slowest bike I've ever raced..."
