Dimensions for cutting out vents in primary gear cover!

Chrisiball · 18-Nov-2005, 20:04

Does anybody know the dimensions for the cut outs that are in the primary gear covers from the RS bikes. Just stripped mine down and want to cut them out before i paint it up, i no it would be easier to have it machined out, but i may aswell do it in works time next week with my trusty saw and file! and the added fact i havent got a program to CNC it!

My machined one has 28mm deep cut outs, each pilar is a nominal 20mm wide and the radius at the bottom of each pillar look as if they were done with a 20mm milling tool.
Not sure how this compares to my mag one as the Corse engine isn't to hand

The posts left, are tapered on the corse ones, not just cut outs.
