thanks peewee, vannik for the information
Question to Wobbly & Frits working on a TM KZ10B:
using this link (http://www.underdogsracing.com/fospipe/) just posted i tried to find setting for having right parameters (similar: only lengths are not correct but total and central lengths are right) with the fixed pipe in homologated fiche. But setting are a lot of distance for the reality about "target HP" (72) and "Lcyl" (the real is 60.25).
So, why this pipe have these measures? What TM want to get in this way?
Thank you for the quick answer Frits, I will do some calculations later when I have the time. What would you say about the reed valve area I asked about? I'm thinking of ditching the reed valve altogether, seeing people from Germany making 20 hp from 85 cc Simson engine with piston port, I should be able to get at least 10-12 hp from my 70 cc engine.
Also I hope it's not a problem that I'm calling you by your first name, read a couple hundred pages ago that you like to be referenced by your first name.
Sorry for all the questions, kind regards Jordan.
Piston port induction will be fine for getting 10 to 12 hp from a 70 cc engine. If you're not careful, you will get more power than that.
I haven't got the faintest idea about the dimensions of a 'Minarelli horizontal' so I cannot comment on your reed valve question. Maybe Wobbly can help you there.
And I still prefer to be called by my first name.
The TM-B pipe you have shown is not close at all.The stinger of a stock engine is 24mm for example.
And a stock B will make around 44HP @13200 at the sprocket thus the crank power will be only +5% on this.
The big issue with the engine is the straight line ignition and this dictates the pipe is VERY short for peak power at 13200.
I cannot give you any more info at this point as my very expensive video card has let out the smoke - due to constant use on EngMod
to design the D model pipe for TM.
Hopefully I will have a new 5MHz overclocked rocket computer running in the New Year.
Ive got a thing thats unique and new.To prove it I'll have the last laugh on you.Cause instead of one head I got two.And you know two heads are better than one.
Frits, sorry about missing out on information. I just measured up and came up with this.
Reed petal area - 243.09 mm2
Total reed petal area - 972.36 mm2
Area of reed cage entry from carburetor flange side - 930 mm2
Reed lift 5 mm
Reed cage angle 60°
Reed stopper angle 16° ( Relative to the reed itself - assuming it's flat (0°))
Carburetor area (28 mm bore) 615 mm2
Inlet port area 619 mm2
So pretty much I have no idea if the reeds are suitable, got them for about $3, everything I did on the engine was in the spirit of buckets - low or no cost and diy. Most expensive part I bought was the carburetor - 50$. Even the cylinder liner was free, found an old wheelcart bushing and machined it on the lathe. I hope I can squeeze out some power out of it, there is a word that there will be a Simson cross race this year and if all is well I hope that I can participate.
Attached a drawing of the measurements, excuse my poor drawing and writing skills.
Also thanks for the time spent helping me out.
Kind regards
Jordan
Hi All I hope this is a good spot to put this , I am trying to find some information about the Yamaha RD48 and RD56 engine A 250cc Disk valve twin, 1961 to 1964
The crank diameter and length
Disk valve diameter
conrod length
piston compression height
would any one know if any of these motorcycles sold to customers or purely works bikes
Presumably you've read this
https://www.amazon.com/Yamaha-Racing.../dp/1852239204
Can't imagine any escaped the clutches of the factory.
Don't you look at my accountant.
He's the only one I've got.
To the best of my knowledge neither the RD48 nor the RD56 were ever sold; they were pure works bikes and it won't be easy to find any information about them after more than 50 years. The best I can do is a couple of lists and drawings from the RD56 and the 125cc RA41 which had the same relevant dimensions as the 250cc RD48. Working from the known bore dimension you may be able to extract approximates of the other dimensions you were asking about.

You made me curious: what are you planning to do with those dimensions? Build replicas maybe? And while you're at it, you might tell us a bit about yourself as well.
Pretty sure the "Dutch Yamaha Fairy" has built a replica
