2kg of ice, that is not such a big fridge, the idea might be possible.

Could be interpreted as stored energy in teh rules?

Unlikely i'd think - more likely to be described as water cooling...

What about liquid air if you want to push the boundaries - allow it to drip into the inlet tract....

Was going to suggest dry ice in a slightly pressurised container, valved to flow at WOT through an intercooler.

But LOX and Liquid Hydrogen is a MUCH better idea!




Wonder if we've just popped a wee red flag at spook HQ...

You may, Husa. The picture below may give a first impression, and you'll find the whole story here: http://www.tonyfoale.com/Articles/EngineBalance/EngineBalance.pdf

Dank u meneer

Not to mention contrvened the fuel regs lol.

Water cooling of what though?.....

I have been looking at where I can place the motor in the new frame, the forks are adjusted to represent maximum suspension travel. I could reverse the cylinder and move the motor quite a bit further forward. Also looks like plenty of room for the alternative CVT setup too.

thats a sexy frame
I still say it needs to meet Mr saw though.
but can you turn the forks? ps what is the castor at the Swingarm pivot height you have that packed to?
Fits or Wob might be able to explain how you might get more even cylinder cooling by reversing the Cylinder

I apologise for thread dredging here but it's amusing what is said on the internet then proven wrong. Then it's followed by some old bloke from down sound playing a very small violin only to come second in the 2013 Tokoroa GP

Yes well the old dogs will go down fighting for sure. This one is in training for the BOB. A few mods to the bike also. Number one is a quick shifter.

Sorry you were not at the track TZ. Race day fry up will have to wait a while.

This is not the realy good one you gave me, that one is at Gigglebuttons being modded for some special forks.

Yes for turning but not sure about castor, need the rear end in place first.

I have heard that, and would like to know more.

I am very much looking forward to the next chance we all get to meet at Tiffany's again.

Attachment 282158

Nice article, thank you Frits
Does anyone have any information and or suggestions with regards to an inline twin such as the Rotax, DEA, FPE Kart engines and the balance issues if the cranks were to be phased at 180* instead of the current phasing of both pistons at TDC at the same time

Thanks

[Flettner]

The torsional loads on the crank drive will be much higher with a 180 cranks ( I'm assuming you are talking tandem twin ). You WILL have to have a stronger gear to crank attachment. Rising and falling together pistons are even loads from crank to crank. I know I built one ( 180, same rotation ) and couldn't keep the joining gears from failure. But it did run smooth as far as balance went.

[husaberg]

Yeah i am no RV guru for sure the twin disk or rear would be neat but f-ing problematic i did see another design from another later motor that was similar but can't remember where it was Mirhindra or something i think

Thats the one i think? where is the pics of the drive set up?

No idea, stumbled on that looking for some ADM 500 stuff, that was a single he did for an RS chassis
