...........but what is "standard" ??
Is the cam timing being returned to +/- 8 degress of anywhere, is the squish being put back to 1/2"..............
The reason those bikes were "rocket ships" is that they were prepped and built to perfection and that's the key to finding the last 10% out of these motors.
I know who built them and know that they were 100% within the rules of DD, as DLS had instructed them to built them that way.
Cam timing, squish, compression all count for a lot in how the motor makes it's power, not just how much it makes.
I've heard a rumour that something may have been added post build, but it wouldn't have generated anymore bhp.
There were several bikes that matched them on bhp but they had a very strong mid range and that counts for a lot.
