V8 !

<< < (5/7) > >>

LesterPiglet:
I'd like to buy a chain for my Pugeot please.

What clever dick decided white tyres was a good idea?

Drew400:
I wonder if air cooling is sufficient for this little CB 800 F V8.

Lobo:
I'm no engineer, but am just left wondering, "what's the point" of the V8s. I say this because (eg) the 400F frame, clutch, gearbox, wheels, gearbox.... EVERYTHING is bloody designed / stressed for 37BHP / 170Kg & not double that....
So, within a mile or two I guess the clutch will burn out, the rear cylinders overheat, and the frame crack. (sure he'll have beefed up a few extra bits, but I bet a lot of it not)

Hmm...

Nonetheless, Very, very impressive engineering.

I would have put an extra disc on the front as well
