Changes for 2009............

Unread post by Triplebrew »

We are going to change our motor back to an 850 from the current 930 following a truly awful 2 years of trying to make the 'stroked' motor work. So if anyone knows someone in need of a stroked crank, carillo rods or P&M barells with omega pistons point them my way ;)

Anyone has to admire your persistence to get that motor running properly Ian :shock: Really hope that the 850 works, any idea of when you might get a quick test blast?

Hi Bob, As soon as I can source the bits (and funds :( ) work can begin. Engine should be going back to France (somewhere South of Bergerac ;) ) before the end of the year and we will be testing February (ish) in the warmth of either Nogaro or Pau Arnos. Can't wait the 850 was sooooo much better :D

Don't suppose that sympathetic bank managers are easy to com by these days :roll:

Let's know when you are testin and we'll pop down to see you, Nogarro is only about 200km south from us.

What sort of a test is that? You need a wet and cold Feb at Mallory.

Good luck with the new (old) engine.

You could just buy Keith's Imp ;)
