I've never been hit by one of my own pistons and it's something I'd rather avoid...

is lurking.It steers beautifully and is really sensitive to subtle changes in throttle position, tightening its line on an applied throttle and steering with pin point accuracy on the brakes. Suzuki were right to be waffling on about the big piston forks

nut. It had a strip, check and new-gasket/piston ring rebuild about 3 and a half hours of use ago. It's got a few scuffs and scrapes but every time we've been to a track somehwere it's always the fastest 4.2 around. It's fitted with a high compression

camshaft kits, stroker cranks, big bore Nikasil barrels, slipper pistons, dry clutches, huge carbs and close ratio gear kits are all available. Depends how healthy your credit card is, really.This video is a prime example of what is achievable from Honda

of JRL in the States. He used a Rotec 2800 motor and mounted it longitudinally to simplify the drive mechanism and to counteract the massive torque effect of the huge crankshaft, rods and pistons.Custom bike builder Jesse James decided to do things

for a long season’s worth of racing. Major engine overhauls happen at 2,000 racing miles (intake valves and valve springs), 4,000 (camshaft, piston) and 8,000 (crankshaft, piston and rod).Running gear is predominantly Honda RS125 (wheels, suspension
