It's the wrong way up. Honda have not, to my knowledge, made an upside down rear Swing-Arm on a road bike. I think one of the Yamaha R1s did...
Ha, yes of course, but as basically the MotoGP engine (and such an exorbitant price) I was not including that. Interesting that you mention it...
I think there is some misunderstanding and some agreement. I never said the RC46 was the pinnacle or any improvement over the RC45. I said the...
Thanks for that, exactly the information I needed.
There is more similarity between the RC45 and RC46 engines than you might imagine. Of course the RC45 was in a higher (though not extreme) state...
I'll probably regret answering this, but I will anyway. I said that the VFR800 engines "are basically the RC45 motor and that was the pinnacle of...
That's interesting, thanks. Can you confirm what you mean by Gen3. By Gen2 you clearly mean RC24, so is that an RC36 engine? I'm amazed it's that...
I realise there would be a lot to match up in either case, but these projects are not imagined as simple engine swaps, but as replicas to mimic an...
All good info thanks. I have a couple of potential projects rattling around in my head. :) RC24 engine into RC36 frame RC46 engine into RC24...
Ah, so the '86 RC24 engine uniquely had a cam sensor. Hmm, could be handy when adding fuel injection. I believe a VF1000 engine will fit into a...
Interesting. That explains it. Thanks. But would still like to know if a VF1000 engine can be made to fit?
By way of explanation, I want to put together a decent RC30 replica and the RC24 engine and RC36 frame are the closest match. Since it's not real,...
Well I don't really see it like that. Before I start any project, I like to find out if anyone's done it before as that can really help make it...
Specifically, I want to put an RC24 engine in an RC36 frame. I believe the rear mounts on the crankcases are the same, but there's possibly some...
