2011 – Engine Upgrade

Peter Burgess Fast Road engine was installed with a piper 285 cam, lightened and balanced with K&N air filters. Bored to plus 60 giving 1867cc, rolling road print out shows engine readings of 99.6hp and 121.2 ft lbs of torque. Not sure what the engine currently shows, but has done circa 10k miles since being built and certainly pulls very nicely indeed!

Dry stored for a period of time with very little use.
