I think they shorten the suspension travel a bit too.. and add bigger brakes.

My point tho is that its not really much of a project. Petros could knock a CR500 motard over in his sleep. The use of a twin engine in a single frame and something that makes says 100bhp in a MX/Enduro chassis would be amazing fun, just sayin....

Carbed V-Due engine in a ATK frame!
That would be a white-knuckle express ride..

Here is the 450 getting ready too , frame was powder coated ,
engine fully stripped to be checked over , will change all bearings in there.
Flywheel was completely stuck , destroyed two flywheel pullers and although after heat cycle to get it apart ,
finally flywheel was destroyed and damaged the end of the crank too :smt010 :smt010
oh well will fix it anyway................just will cost some more.

Sounds like someone put that flywheel on with a air wrench set too high...

Since you seem to like 4-strokes, have you thought about making something Rotax-powered? Those things are reliable as anvils and can make awesome power.

Finally parts arrived , mainly we were waiting for the rod bearing.

Everything is done in house , pressing the crank in place after installed new rod bearing for the 450.

Weighing crank

Finally bought a keihin FCR 41,5 :smt026 for the 650 and an Akrapovic , so both bikes will have Akrapa's & FCR's installed.
