    Well done. I only had about 24hp then so it was inevitable.
    Good to see the new bike running up well. Would have loved a go on it.
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    Sounds really promising. Good luck for the racing, first Taumarunui, then the world!!! (Or at least Tokoroa....)

    Sorry won't be coming to video, only got as far as Bunnythorpe and my shot rear tyre was washing out on the wet road, time to pull the pin and go home. Bloody rain.

    One: Either you all fell off...

    or Two: I have the GPR bank card in my wallet...

    Thanks for reminding me!

    By the way, how did it all go...apart from the forced dieting.

    Triple exhaust port this time? Noice. How big is that exhaust port duct though? And/or does it take inserts?

    Must admit that my concept is changing very little from Regan's bike, it proved to be not to bad on the first attempt. The exhaust insert can be seen in the middle of the picture, spigots into the exhaust stub with a variable blended circular to oval shape. Will try another shape combo to get a comparative dyno reading between engines. Somewhere I have another insert that remains circular right through, keen to know what the torque/hp readings will be for that too.

    Most the change is in trying to get better heat reducing qualities with the fins on the barell. Couple of heads to fiddle with combustion and the likes. Little bit more work to go, we'll get there. I guess Scott knows he's up for another frame now...

    Ahh I was looking at the sleeve on the right that was upside down and just saw a port above the transfer, missing the top and of course the front view.
    Insert idea is a good one, tests will be mighty interesting though I suspect the effects on fueling may need a jet either way to optimise for the full comparison.

    Great project, following it with a lot of interest. ......
