why so much hate against the internal combustion gas engine? It is one of the most efficient motors out on the road when saddled to a two wheel bike.
Plus they killed a tuber to do it. : (

it gets the job done, but it isnt very efficient.... has anyone made an aftermarket 4valve-head for buells?
that would be a worthy modd, and im surprized eric hasnt made a 4valved buell yet. what type of power do you think an XB would make with this?
I mean really, why hasnt eric ever tried to do this! does pushrod tech not allow this to happen.?.. im sure that the technology is avaliable to allow a single rod controll two valves....




please no smartass remarks about the 1125, im talking about the XBmotor

4 valve heads have been made in the past and wernt proven to be a worthwhile investment...

Wrong, its got to be one of the worst. 25% thermal efficiency. Even diesel is better. Electric blows them away. I am too busy enjoying my time in Pennsyltucky to enjoy arguing right now. : )
