If someone else is buying I want the NCR

If I'm buying I want the Pierobon  [laugh]

I'd love to have either  [thumbsup]

With what they can get out of a motor, I want an NCR Corse 1200 engine purty bad. I have contacted Mr. Ippoliti about pricing a "crate engine" (NCR built 1200cc 2V) for putting in my 2V SBK project.  I figure if I was going to build the motor out and was trying to budget and save for the 73mm stroke crank and 102mm cylinders/pistons (and having the cases machined) and obtaining everything else - it might not be much more to have it built to blueprint specs there and be able to bolt it up

Here's why I'm looking into it - a bit of perspective:

Ducati 996R (998cc Testastretta 4v race bike, limited production of 500): 
    100kw(135 hp),
    101Nm(10.3kgm),
    407 lbs
NCR M4 One Shot (1200cc NCR Corse 2v engine):
    98-103kw(132-138hp),
    140Nm(14.3kgm),
    278 lbs

If you build something with the approach of "Who gives a good make the beast with two backs how much it costs?" then it's amazing the numbers and performance that can be achieved.

i wish they would do that for one season of motogp.  no weight limits, engine size configs, or anything at all.  just the stipulation that it has a to be a motorcycle and away you go.

Then Honda wins by bankrupting competition as they seem to be trying to do now.

Or how about a race with only the top selling model regardless.

Honda would have to race a cruiser.

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

A 250 cruiser, no?

Or a portable generator... [laugh]

I'd pay to see that.

Imagine running one of those things, flat out, with a sidecar monkey hanging off the back/sides?

Might not be competitive, but it'd be damned fun.

I can't wait until Marquez gets on his level and makes Jorge trip on his tampon string.
