I was talking to JB yesterday and he mentioned that he'd done an RT kit. Sounds great but I bet the price was pretty eye watering! :shock:

Sounds like a nice tourer, could you post the graph to see how the power is delivered?

I had a leaflet come with a recent MB order and it does sound tempting, but on their website it says it's nicasil lined yet on the leaflet it says ceramic lined :? So, ceramic or nicasil and does it make any difference?

I thought nicasil was something like nickel/silicon, that doesn't sound like ceramic :?

Ceramic lining is different. Google Apticote 2000 8-)

Ceramic is alledgedly harder wearing and has better lubricating and heat dissipation properties

I remeber when doing ma' City and Guilds, being told that within 20 years engines would be all ceramic and disposable.
That was in '84, so it should be happening any minute now :biggrin:
That's not going anywhere...
