  1. Raising Compression Ratio 16 Nov 2016 21:22 Sorry to resurrect this thread, interesting subject though:-) Re flat faced valves, any recommendation on a quality manufacturer of such items ? Would like to slightly increase intake valve diameter anyway due to severe…
  2. Raising Compression Ratio 15 Nov 2016 23:05 Got his issue with my 837cc RC36. I want to get the heads optimised, but chamber grinding will reduce the 11.5:1 CR I have with the JE pistons. If I get time this winter I'm going to remove the backlash gears from a cam…
  3. Oil cooler relocation 97 vfr750 15 Nov 2016 22:08 5 hours ago, MorrisJ879 Can the Goodrich hoses be mated relatively easy to the standard flanges and block? On a budget have to either cut and flare the original steel cooler lines to take a rubber hose, or weld an…
  4. Oil cooler relocation 97 vfr750 15 Nov 2016 12:51 Hi, I was thinking the same thing for my track bike, as I have a larger one from an RC51 to fit. Was thinking of fitting it below the std radiator using goodridge style hoses, mated to the original block mounted…
  5. Two Brothers Header Replication! 13 Nov 2016 17:51 Any updates on the VFR800 exhaust system production Guys ?
  6. Two Brothers Header Replication! 21 Dec 2015 22:56 Yeah, I did buy a used SBS system to evaluate quite some time ago. It looked fine externally, and was much lighter than OEM, but the internal port matching was awful (as we know) and I'm quite sure it would have lost…
  7. Two Brothers Header Replication! 21 Dec 2015 18:36 I'm not bothered if it's left or right exit. However, what I would really like is a quality system that does away with that heavy sub manifold / flange which connects the OEM downpipes to the rear cylinders, so the…
  8. Two Brothers Header Replication! 18 Dec 2015 19:20 I've read a few articles on modifying RC36's over the years, both on line and in various publications. Based on results contained within these write ups I tend to agree with what Phantom is saying in that the original…
  9. Two Brothers Header Replication! 11 Dec 2015 20:46 I'd be interested in a Tyga 4th Gen system, but would like to know what the expected power increase would be when using their replicated TBR system. Not being fussy, but it seems Honda did a good job with the design of…
  10. 96 vfr750 cbr929 pistons???/ 18 Jan 2015 22:16 JZH 'flyguyeddy 836cc. Im hoping to not lose too much compression with the smaller dome. So you're effectively making your own TTS Big Bore kit? If that is the case, then the main issue will be with boring the…
  11. Are There Any Honda Rearsets That Will Fit A 6Th Gen Lower? 20 Nov 2013 22:37 What is the distance between the mounting holes on your 6th gen ? I had trouble locating race rearsets to suit my 4th Gen - which uses 78mm mountings. I was told that early CBR900 Fireblade rearsets are also 78mm but…
  12. 837cc Big Bore Kit 13 Jan 2008 20:39 Hi all. I fitted an 837cc JE piston kit to my '97 RC36 based track bike. Luckily, I'm a mechanic so was able to strip and rebuild the motor myself - saving £££. TTS (UK) supplied the JE piston kit for £440 and rebored…
