    today down at the alloy boat builders, where paladins bike is getting repaired.
    they had a brand new yamaha V10 outboard engine..
    i just had to look at paladins bike and wonder if we could fit the V10 in the frame.....
    the cost of the V10 brand new from factory,
    $45,000.00 thats no shit....
    its going on a new boat which is being built for a south island fisherman....
    I FEEL THE NEED, THE NEED FOR SPEED

    It had a really weird engine. Part of the stroke supercharging the other part/scavanging/black magic/or something.

    Found it...
    Harnessing pre-ignition to good effect.
    "When the dust settled, the EXP-2 had earned 5th overall and 1st in both the under 500cc and Experimental classes at the (2003?) Granda-Dakar rally; 1st in the two-stroke class and 8th overall in the Nevada Rally last year (2002), and 7th overall motorcycle at the Baja 1000."

    Is that pic Topo put up based on a 690, or has that bike been built around a 520/525 EXC?????

    I could see how that would work and it looks like it would work very well indeed.


    But!
