Chinese Bike Engine Interview

early on, Tom had a small website (motor-bicycles.com) & this forum was a sidebar, the arlo interview was featured...at the time it was THE authoritative article. looking back at it, seeing how pertinant most of his info still is...well, let's just say we could open a discussion about lack of progress, but we won't ;)

I think it would be really interesting to see how a blueprinted HT ran.


Too bad OSHA makes running a small foundry nearly impossible in the USA, these engines could use some design improvements
 
i think a high-end HT would rock the house, it's the cutest lil' design...but i also think it would be pretty pricey.

me? still dreamin' of a "made in usa" version :)
 
I've decided that I NEED one of those Triumph style heat sinks for the exhaust pipe. I'll make my own, though.

The guy in the second picture had 'em.
