What’s up guys? My name is Steve from NJ in the US My brother passed away and I actually inherited all his bikes, pretty good size stable, 95. 916. 05 MV 1000 F4 and more. Are there any experts on here? I know stupid question. I want to see what I have besides the bike. I think it could have a different engine, maybe a 996. I wasn’t really talking to much with him but I know he did some stuff. He did have some Vance and Hines heads on the engine back in the 2000s. I actually still have them, also with 2 sets of cylinders. He also had an engine laying on the ground with the head and cylinders off the bottom end. Also the rods that are in the spare bottom head are Penkel Titanium, I just don’t understand why he wouldn’t use them in the engine that’s in it. Is there anyway I can tell if it has the original cases, cylinders? Obviously I know the heads on the bench are the Vance and Hines. His bike is very very nice. I’ll post some pics later. Carbon wheels, MS Production carbon int, ram air, Carbon fuel tank, Full titanium Teramogoni exhaust, Ohlins, front shocks with Brembo mono block, Penske shock, and a hell of a lot more. Anyway if anyone can give me some key features that I can ID this engine. Thank you
A warm welcome Steve. I’m a Luddite so not much help to you. but there are many knowledgeable folks here. I’m sure someone will be along to say hi and give you some guidance. Sounds like you have some nice toys!
I'm sure there will be forum members who are knowledgable pictures will help and welcome into our mad house
Ohlins are race versions not standard ones, wheels are dymag, carbon and magnesium, fuel tank looks carbon too. Looks like forged clutch master cylinder too Looks like magnesium swing arm.
of course, you can google me. I’m a well known land speed racer and engine builder. I built the engine for the world’s fastest MC. Bill Warners 311 mph Hayabusa. Still is the record since 2012. Also builder of the worlds fasted Naturally Aspirated MC @254mph at the bonniville salt flats, to name just a few facts.
