Thats really great dude :biggrin: with some really nice photos. Ive just started with my own site Head behind the bubble - Homepage How do you advertise your site or do you do it just for fun?
thanks chaps! It takes a lot of work to keep people 'satisfied', but I'm lucky enough to get close to these bikes and lucky enough to be able to describe what I see. Matt, it's mostly for fun. It started as research on the little R, but it's grown as I get access to bikes. The Blogger tool is useful - it shows where people are viewing from - a lot in the States, loads here, regulars from France, Italy, Germany, Russia and Australia. Nine-nails - it's been repainted a few times! And it took a bit of work, but it's not a Bayliss bike. Sad, but there it is. Onward and upwards! Just added a few pics in the last hour.
Referring to the photo of the cooling system, from what I gather the last of the 999's i.e. what were run in WSB and BSB (GSE) all had a pressurised cooling system, very bling and does help keep the temp down especially when lined up on the grid.
with respect i hope all cooling systems are pressurised.....and that is what keeps the temperature down by raising the boiling point.
I knew someone would say that, what I mean is normal bikes you add fluids and remove air, this is pressurised i.e. fluids are injected under pressure
just done some updates - Bianchi (not finished!) and Bursi/Panigale. Very interesting if I do say so myself!
oh jerry,.........cracking pictures from a very good place.....heres hoping his postal system is better than his emails.... the con rod thing..you need to do a bit more research on the longer rod logic and the moving of the piston pin up to accommodate said longer rod....
