I didnt realise that you guys were running Derbis in buckets, are they left as 80cc or sleeved down to 50cc or bored up to 100cc.
I would love to do the business on one of those to go up to 100cc and blitz everything in sight.
One engine I have done for a European 50cc champ used a Derbi Senda as a basis, but used a new KTM cylinder.
This made 18 RWHp at 13200 with power out to 14500 and a big fat curve.
Great pic of my fat thumb.
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.
I guess thats why RS125 have flash wheels and skinny everything else, most guys neglect rolling resistance , worn chains, dragging brake pads, totally ignore fat riders, over filled fueltanks etc.
Go look at 50cc gP bikes for some inspiration, cant see me getting down to 45kg though (or my bike)
My neighbours diary says I have boundary issues
I rode Ned's bike at the last meeting for one race when it had the 22hp motor in it.The thing is a fat, so easy to ride. No clutching out of corners. This is the same bike Avalon rides. With 27 fat hp and in the hands of one of the top riders. It's potential is huge
Bike is all going back together and has had some proper maintenace. Plastic on all relevant parts all ready for Avalon to ride at Kaitoke. The new engine is being reassemblied this weekend ready for a dyno run early next week. We hope.
Hopefully new porting and chamber well be a good match. We will see. Running out of time yet again.
Well, on the big track, did Ned dust the Derbi or not.........
I think at present the front running Derbis at Mt Welly owe a lot of their success to the Diproses ability as top line riders.
But if anyone follows up on Wobblys suggestions then Derbies could become real weapons considering all the after market goodies available for them.
Whatever way you look at it, if you can afford it, a Derbi has got to be a better bet than a 30 year old MB or TF/TS100 or an air cooled GP125 from the 70's.
A KTM barrel would clearly be illegal. The aftermarket parts are a grey area in my mind (been argued here a few times), some of these parts it could be argued are for the road use. But clearly anything marketed as race or performance parts is clearly illegal in the rules.
Don't you look at my accountant.
He's the only one I've got.
CHAPTER 24
24 ROAD RACING - MINIATURE
24-2-4 Engines must be derived from non-competition motorcycles. Motocross, Road Racing, Enduro and Go Kart motors and transmission parts are not permitted.
So this baby is permitted as its an after market part for a road bike?
Its a 50mm bore! Check out those exhaust ports
Yep, buy one of those "Performance Kits" , a few $$$ for the other Bits like reeds, carb and manifold, more $$$ for any of the race exhusts available, slap it all on and your a talented top line Bucket race engine builder I recon.
