Default Why so fast.

does anybody know if its a single 1300 or a twin?
Niether, its a V3 with 1300 horsepower, thats what the local Suzuki dealer told me today when i called, he said it would be released sometime in later 04', Ive already told him to reserve me one!!! I cant wait!! Im going to take it in some really tight twisty trails, with that horse power, it can really carve in and out of those kinds of trails, I actually even test rode one, it was real fast, and like i said, It too had the black powerband in it!!

The different colors are different powerband bores and shaping actually.


I wish i had the drawings i made of the ones i designed last year...they're easy to make with a welder and a cutting torch.

Well, stock, Blue is the thinnest, because there isnt much power being pulled at the crank, as they go from blue to green to yellow to orange to pink to black, they get thicker, thus making the power develope much more rapid and being able to pull all that power. A powerband is ussually underestimated since it is JUST a band, but those things are hidden power, hope this helps [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img].

YRO, you should really consider the 3-stroke modification, i garuntee you will smoke your cousin.

That 1300 hp thing HAS to be a typo. I mean it cant be more than about 130, otherwise they probably couldnt sell it without major lawsuits from accidents. its gonna be a fast SOB though, ill tell you that. does it have the dual output shafts like it said in the article? i would love to have that, running dual chains, one on each side of the motor. I heard from a buddy of mine that the zook has dual shocks at each a-arm. That would be awesome. I have to go down to my dealer and reserve one of these things.

Sorry, it was a typo, But you are right about the shocks, I heard they would be mounted in a "V" design on each a-arm, for better cornering and to make it get off the line quicker, did anyone hear about 6 link rear suspension design?

one thing i heard and it kinda makes sense and is a really cool design idea, is that the 27000 rpm limit is achieved with alternating cams. what they do is instead of opening the intake cams first and then opening the exhaust cams after combustion, they will alternate. (its a 6 valve design) they will have 2 intake valves open at the same time as one exhaust valve, then there will be one crankshaft revoultion and then they will alternate to 1 intake valve open and 2 exhaust valves open. it lets the engine rev much quicker and much higher.

and yes i have heard mention of the multi-link rear suspension.

6 valves, 130 hp, dual shocks on the a-arms, dual swingarms, two chains, 27000 rpm, axle snapping power w/ a suicide shift? Pinch me I'm dreaming. I just ordered my prototype orange powerbands from that site. I think that site should be posted again. You should stop misleading people about those black powerbands. I've never heard of them and don't think there is such a thing.
