There's been a disturbance in "the force" Luke

[speedpro]

The dark side beckons . . .

That looks great..... but where is the 30hp MB100 going??????

Don't you dare give that to Gary or Dave Shnanny.

Another two-stroker down... but still this is going to be very interesting; Great work SpeedPro.

But a little boys waits.

[crazy man]

finelly seen the light ! guess the zxr250 motor of mine needs pulling out and have something like that done to it

in something more suitable than a 3LN to be sure. Whereas the 250 4 cylinder engine seems to fit as if it were made to be there.

[Rick 52]

Now this is cool, so looking forward to hearing it run..

[koba]

Phoar!

That's cool.
Even if it is a poppet-pooper.

You know what happened to them.........

Can you add it to Tee Zees weight chart?

Seriously it looks fantastic can't wait to see it running.

It's coming along nicely. I only want to make sure the engine runs at the moment. I don't want to piss round only to find the engine won't run. I have the clutch all sorted and only need to mount the lever on the handlebar. I went over the carbs today and cleaned them all up and devconned the old fuel inlet and drilled a new one on the other side. I'm using the left side pair fitted on the right side and the fuel inlet was right where the frame spar is. The exhaust pipes are just bolted in with no gaskets or anything. The oil pickup is now in and the sump is ready to be bolted up. John Connor is lending me an ignition system just to get it going. Couple of hours on Darren's lathe may be needed to get the triggers mounted. I should have enough old chain here somewhere to wrap round the sprockets.

I'd love to put the supercharger on it but the frame spar is really in the way. The choices look to be either an intermediate shaft across the back of the engine driving the supercharger or putting the supercharger in the front. The turbocharger looks easier to fit but even using the RHB31 the engine is a bit small for turboing. That's a little way away yet so I haven't really looked at it.

Mike i have plenty of 3LN and 2KR engine bits if you need any stuff?
ie 2 wrecked motors one model has from memory bigger mains (that could be the CBR250 though) so more suitable for de-strokeing and the cam timing is quite different between the two from memory? as well as the oil filter set up.I think one model had longer rods also?

[speedpro]

3LN had longer rods and shorter pistons. 3LN also had different sump with spin-on filter. Turns out the filter for the Legnum is a perfect fit on the FZR.

Are you planning to metal spray the crank and offset grind?
I found a dished piston from a Honda 70 or 90 that was workable with the head? Couldn't find anything suitable in forged Unless custom

Summit Engineering in Rotorua used to have the right gear to do submerged arc welding on cranks - at the time they were the only ones who could do it. I understand they sold the gear to their main customer - a dairy factory or timber processing plant i heard.

I'd be interested in hearing if anyone knows of someone else who can do it.

And no Hus...metalspraying doesn't do it for me. Been there, tried that.
