are those cylinders yours too? what do those run to get a idea on what all this would run.
do you know when the front cover and oring deal will be availible? Or a possible price? That is one of the best ideas i have heard. :Banane13:
It is no different than the cylinders.
Problem with anno is everyone will want a different color.

then anodize clear, imo its very important.
Way too soon for that, what do you think the price needs to be, or what would you be happy paying?
I think I could have something ready in two weeks

not really sure. I don't have a firm grasp on how long it would take to draw up and produce. I would pay 50 to 100 for a billit cover if it came with a spare o ring. More if i didn't have to anodize it myself. I am sure if you priced it right you would sell a TON of them. at least 20-50 per year for just freeriders, i think the racers would want them too. Which isn't that much but for this industry...i really would like to know how many b-pipes have been produced and sold over the years. then maybe i could accurately comment.
Have you done any "beefing up" anywhere to support the horsepower that will be able to be obtained by a big bore 16mm stroker?
will they come align bored or do we need to do it?
just anodize the cases black.no choice on color.you could still also offer raw ones as well and let the peeps anodize them themselves.
is there enough room to oring the base gasket surface and intake?
I'm sorry but I got billet wood now! :bananajump:
Very, very, nice work. That thing is a work of art for sure!
congrats! :beerchug:
So much cool stuff coming out now based on and for the 62T platform!:headbang:
O-rings around the intake and cylinder. Interesting idea. The intake would be no big deal.
Initially, what about between the cylinders? Around the outside would be easy, but the space between the cylinders might be too small for two separate o-rings. I would have to have a custom one peice o-ring made for that.
One problem is with annodizing(after the fact) is the main bore will need to be held oversize to do it correctly, anno will make the bores slightly smaller so this has to be taken into account. Other than the main bore, nothing else is real critical as far as that goes, but that would be a big deal as the cases would be "tight" around the crank. In my opinion, if the custumer wants to annodize them, they need to be done before they are shipped.
We looked at doing this as well, just didnt think the market then would support it and couldnt afford the labor of love that had to go into these
nice peice love to see pics of the internals
just have them mask the bearing bores so size isnt effected,
and I would personally do Clear anno to show off the tool marks
