Never mind the bike. The riders no slouch. Any vid or information on the construction of this machine?

HI Micheal, tried to upload a picture of the bike but failed! It has a home made crank at 110 stroke, home made Barrel at 86mm bore (Manx piston), home made much stronger crankcases, ES2 Iron head reprofiled and valve sizes changed. Comp ratio nearly 15:1 running on methanol. Many hours in the workshop and good fun to ride. Glad you enjoyed the video. Regards Peter

WOW what a tool, Pa Norton would be really really proud, first you blow away 2 strokes, and then a racing Honda, I know it's not a 79mm x 100mm ES2 but great job. Well done.
