Hi Johnny,
I've got a lightly tweaked Superlight (FCR 41s, Silmotors, bling bits) and it puts out a modest 78bhp, but we've had SSs on here with up to 102bhp (Blooduke, tuned by Nelly @ Cornerspeed).
As always it's a game of diminishing returns, but the basics for a carbed SS are:
14t front sprocket
Cans
FCR41s
Lightened flywheel
944 big bore (any bigger and the cases need machining) or
High Comp pistons
MBPDucati Testarosso Heads
All needs proper setting up, preferably by our very own Nelly.
Cheers,
Ali

As I see that Chris Clark Motorcycles is now defunct I'm looking for recommendations as to who to turn to. I understand that Baines is now the place to go. I'm thinking about 944cc and big valves. What kind of power could I expect with this? Is it worth going for a full, big bore Termi system. Can anyone recommend any other tuning mods. What I'm really after is a heap more low down torque and better top end breathing for a fast road bike. Hope someone can help. Johnny |
