The power band of a 1967 Suzuki RK67. It occupied the 500 rpm between 17,000 and 17,500.

The engine, then, went something like this:

Splutter

Splutter

Splutter

Splutter

Splutter

Wheeee

Bang

To make use of the milliseconds between splutter and bang required the use of one of these, a thing rarely seen

Yes, a fourteen speed gearbox.

I want it. Its basically a high speed, noisey road bicycle.

Old school 50cc race bikes are awesome. I believe Suzuki went up to 21 gears as well.

as far as I can work out its also the water and oil pump drivers, the water pump layshaft seems to be missing.

17.5hp out of a 2-cylinder 50cc engine is absolutely insane.

Ah okay. I though it was also the sump but couldn’t tell. So the missing shaft is the main drive lay shaft

You’re just showing off because you know what a lay shaft is. Pedant.
