What water cooled 2 stroke engines are available that arnt competion based?

Slap an RGV250 cylinder on a Suzuki or Kawasaki rotary valve bottom end and Bobs your uncle. Plenty of good chamber designs to go with these cylinders. I have heard Team ESE have figured out how to air cool them with out to much effort, might see one on the track next year.

Yeah it's the 'slapping' that may be a drama. A cursory look at a modern cylinder sees that they are attached by 4 widely spaces bosses at the bottom of the cylinder. Small commuter 2 strokes have either internal full length bolts, or aren't spaced anywhere near as wide. Considerable crankcase modification required.

is using parts from a competition bike even allowed?

**F5 Dave** · 5th October 2009, 16:27

No it isn't. But RGV was a roadbike not a competition bike.

EDIT: lol - what would you guys say if someone turned up on an "ozzy" 125? say a new kwaka "ninja" firing one one cylinder or a vtr250 with one topend blanked off?

Legal. Heavy but legal.

I know of someone who had the parts to build a Kawi & was thinking about it (those Ninja engines have been around for years). A few people were talking about 250 4s with 2 cylinders taken off. I've seen one 1/2 done.

Yeah and your point being? RS250 is a road bike too...

I see it as, if its ever been sold as a road bike, its bucket legal. Even if its a race rep.

Where on EARTH did the "road registered" bit EVER mean it can be a Bucket?
If it's a competition bike and road registered it CANNOT be used as a bucket. The rules clearly state no COMPETITION based engines. 'Road registered' has no place in Buckets.
