ROTAX HP ??

[Eddie]

The guage cluster is used in several BRP products including their snowmobiles and is adaptable to their ATV line in the future. It is a plug and play module and needs to meet american and canadian AND european specifications. The guage pac is controlled by the ecu. The 200 "mark" on the speedo is there for the KPH brothers. If you run in KPH and hit 200 kph (~124 mph) you will have reached the limit of the speedo. If the speedo had been developed with a , lets say 150 mark then our KPH brothers would pin it at ~93 mph.

Hope that helps.

Thank you now It finaly dawns DUU :shemademe_smilie:

If thats so then why do they say this
"The BUELL engine is a similar engine type. V-structure still, but with a different displacement. The 1125 packs a lot of V-990 genes in its design.
In the end, the team at Rotax has pulled together a state of the art and unique engine designed precisely for your Spyder. Enjoy riding!

At some point, those of us who have had these motors apart and build our livelyhoods knowing this stuff can start to become irritated when people don't listen...... That being said, I'm still trying to educate, not irritate.......
Let's see....
103mm pistons (still 67.5 stroke = 1125cc)
61mm TBs
wider V angle (to fit the bigger pistons without compromising conrod length)
vacuum slipper clutch
3 balancer shafts........... Etc etc



Genes, I have my fathers genes but we are very different people. The 1125 is no v990.

"Anything is possible when you don't know what you're talking about".

Don't know who said that but they were right! :yikes:

Talked to Aerocharger.... the first batch of Turbo units for the Spyder are supposed to ship out to customers this week. :thumbup:

Bad news is they sold all of them to those who did pre-orders.:yikes:

And yup---- they're still really expensive. $4,995.00 :yikes:

Didn't ask when they would be making another batch... just not sure I can justify that kind of money to satisfy my need for speed.:dontknow:

But I'm thinking about it.

HERE IS WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT

Motorcycle engines
The 1125 cc Helicon engine developed for Buell is a lightweight, fast-revving, big-bore, short-stroke V-twin with a broad power curve peaking at 146 hp (109 kW) near the 10,500 rpm redline.
The twin-cylinder, 139 hp (104 kW) V990, is light and compact, sporting magnesium cylinder head and clutch covers.
The Type 122 & 123 engines were single cylinder 125 cc engines as used in Aprilia AF1 / RS125 models. These were high revving, high power units using an exhaust valve system called Rave to increase peak power while retaining low end torque.

• Engine Type 1125R - Buell Motorcycle Company
• Engine Type V990 - Can-Am Spyder, reverse trike
• Engine Type 804

Yup--- still waiting for them to get the final product for release---- a few out here have ordered them.

$5,000 :yikes:

It doesnt cost $5,000. It costs $4,995! :joke:

I was there Monday as they were boxing the first kits to go out and I have pics!

You are seeing pics of the final boxed units here first. The pipes and mufflers should be done with thermal coating tomorrow, then kits should start shipping when they complete the packaging.hyea:

Not sure where you got the info--- but the v990 in the Spyder isn't 139HP. Different pistons, lower compression, lower HP.

Call Ken at www.evoluzione.net - (951) 639-0951.

He knows these engines up and down, in and out. He builds Aprilla racing bikes and has worked on the V990 engines for years. He rebuilt his Spyder V990 and has it 140+ HP. I've talked to him many times--- nice guy--- really knows his stuff. He could tell you the real scoop in a matter of minutes.

If ya want more HP out of the Spyder.... there's 2 ways to get there---- high compression pistions/cams or adding a Turbo kit.
