Warning, for the impatient it may not be for you  :) slow delivery but a very lucid look at this element of engineering from Brian Garvey.

Misc / Open / Electric bikes discussion.

It's a fairly short article, but does illustrate just how much of a challenge it is to match combustion fuels in numbers that attempt to operate in the same performance field https://www.crash.net/motogp/feature/1018665/1/triumph-electric-power-let-s-not-kid-ourselves

In an ideal situation these developments and consideration would have happened 20~30 years ago, in which case decisions wouldn't be in such a forced state now and with more evolved solutions to accomplish differences in end user profile.

I've put the race link here as I believe it offers more open comparison of raw capabilities in direct numbers than alot of the consumer facing fluff that's put out currently.

Looking at Ken's thread on disc brake material, I was doing a little digging in such topic and came across this on the  .net Honda forum http://forums.sohc4.net/index.php?topic=109502.0  :o :o :o ;D

It's about the thirteenth post in the thread, quite an adventure by all accounts  :)

Tricks & Tips / One off exhaust mock up
« on: February 12, 2022, 08:39:54 PM »
Discussion on here some time ago about building a bespoke exhaust system,  found this while wandering the www https://youtu.be/5xQavghdb14 and thought it was quite an elegant low-risk cost of prototyping something individual.

Misc / Open / 1974 Belgian GP footage
« on: December 14, 2021, 03:42:56 PM »
Sadly no sound, but some nice film of miscellaneous parts of the Belgian GP.

https://youtu.be/PjeCGQtQ9Cc

Looks that much of it could be shot on Kodachrome as the colours are typical (also stable in archive) with a short bit possibly another film type as fidelity isn't a match.

Misc / Open / Parts that may be of interest.

400 four pipes that are tatty and have non std rear,  but could be of interest in some of the component parts. The collector looks like it's still inside the hash rear pipe, not cheap but could be something to replace other poor bits of a system.

Also look through the other items listed as theres a fair bit of stuff there for honda that some maybe searching for.
