ESE's works engine tuner

The RSW Vs the RSA is not even a close apples for apples comparison regarding the physical layout and many other detail changes - I have serious difficulties attributing
the RSA power increase to simply 25cc of CCR = going from 1.238 to 1.227 = only 8/10ths of 1 % change.
That % would be 0.4 Hp in 54, sure, absolutely worth doing, along with at least 5 other changes with far more significance.
But the RSA had its own downsides - the rear valves gear drive, and the front mounted bent pipe that also negatively affected the bikes weight balance and thus its handling.
Jan has said that given the opportunity to do it again, he would far rather have a valve on each side, not one on the back.

The Dutch are at 20RWHP with their 50's. This is where we are at now. Not even the best for NZ but we are working on it.



This is someone else's but essentially the same motor as I am building. Hopefully with some direction from EngineMod2T we can do a bit better with our Rotary Valve Suzuki RG50 motors.

In 2025 each FreeTech50 bike in the first start row had about 24 rear wheel HP.

After wasting near on 5 years of his and our time building completely dumb off the wall shit on UTube, Alex is now running a pretty much conventional 50cc 2T
and is achieving 27HP at the sprocket on petrol for his Bonneville LSR project.
During this time I wasted a bunch of time arguing with him about CCR, as he originally had a reed inlet system and by shear chance had close to a 1.3 CCR ratio but then decided to suddenly change to a rotary valve.
As usual that initially made about as much power as a chainsaw, until he finally listened and changed the case to around 1.2 CCR in part by adding a heap of clearance around the crank.
I havnt commented since about his engine, as Im afraid he will go wildly off on another tangent, and automatically start thinking " bigger is better ".

It will be a very interesting and worthwhile exercise to model your rotary 50cc TeeZee in EngMod, try the CCR in increments, then see what happens with the dyno real world tests.
In that case, I dont think absolute power numbers are the goal at all, but seeing the trend will be very informative.

50cc power levels and dynos have been a HOT topic recently here Finland



Do all commercial dynos have "Fudge" factors like dynojet?,and can 20+ Rear Wheel Horsepower be measured straight from the roller without fudge?
??

I have started setting up the engine part of the project in EngMod2T. The first simulation does not match the dyno results of my friends bike. Which has the same engine as the one I am building.
I will need to enter his pipe specs before things properly align. My friend has a 50cc high end Barakit pipe on his bike that we dynoed.
I have tried modeling the pipe without much success.

If anyone has a drawing for the 50cc high end Barakit pipe they could post. I would be very grateful.

I have graphed the EngMod2T output in kW as that sort of represents rwhp after transmission losses. The DynoJet graph is in std RWHP.

In 2025 each FreeTech50 bike in the first start row had about 24 rear wheel HP.

I expect that at least some of the bikes on the front row have cylinders that the clever tuners have made themselves. Bikes on rows behind are probably sporting special aftermarket cylinders they have purchased.

There is a lot about FreeTech50 that is similar to F5 Buckets. Making your own cylinder is Ok and to be applauded but you need skills like Flettner's. In F5 Buckets you can't just buy your HP. You are expected to make your own from basic non competition engine parts. Excepting, Carb, Ignition, Piston Pipe and anything you can make yourself like a cylinder is unrestricted.



Not possessing Flettners skills I think my best rout is to convert a Suzuki RG50 to rotary valve so I can make use of a basic inexpensive cast iron version of the 50cc AM6 cylinders from China. There is nothing "race" about them other than some over excited advertising.

We have a few RG50 bottom ends but no good cylinders. We have worn them out ages ago and they are like rocking horse poo to replace. The best we ever achieved with them was 14 RWHP.

I am not expecting to break 20 RWHP any time soon. But it will be a lot of fun trying and not to expensive which is what Buckets is mostly about, fun and not being to expensive.
