[stanbloke]

Ok , it's not an Mt.....but it's pretty close.

Same engine, same wheels, same Carb as the MT500 so i have turned to you guys for help in the problems section.

Nice forum BTW.

Hi,nice bike. Always wanted one of these in my youth but went for the two stroke as kickstarting big four stroke singles never seemed like my idea of fun.

Yep, Who Dat ?.

Right then...done a bit of checking and found out that this is a 560cc Rotax engine.

Details sent to Rotax Uk to try and find out more about this bike......Fingers crossed ...Eh !! .

[stanbloke]

The good news about it being 560 is, that having the same crank as the 604 & 640 engines, you can at any time you want to, take it up in capacity.

640 huh!!.

What will i need for that ?. Just a "Top end ", barrel, piston,head etc ?.

[stanbloke]

Barrel & piston, & head, but head is the same as a 604. Not cheap but easier to find than a whole 604/640 engine. Malcom at Sportax, See "Links Commercial", is a good man to talk to.
O yes, and if it hasn't got elecric start, you'll also need a strong leg in full working order.

Hmmmm, I think about it , Cheers!.

Well thanks to Apophis the bike now starts 2nd/ 3rd kick.....WooooooHooooo. .
