Awseome pick of the old Vision engine in a modern flat track frame. Goin' racin'...

I couldn't get to the site, wonder what displacement it is? I still haven't heard if anybody has sent a piston and cylinder to Wiseco so they can look at doing new piston and ring sets. I don't need them right now but I do have spare cylinders, pistons and cylinder heads that I could send if no one else can.
Whale oil beef hooked!

Dave already has a sample piston  and I emailed him the critical dimensions  of the cylinder , we will see what happens.

The Vision had (has) plenty of potential , aside from this jewel kenny Roberts had  a v engine in a custom road race frame.

The Pics I have are in an old copy of the ROV news letter. They were taken by Jeff Swan on a trip to CA. I can scan them  and maybe Chris( Motorplow)   will post them for a while . I'm assuming Jeff wont mind,  maybe it will inspire more people to subscribe to the news letter.

Hey Rick -

Did you see this bike at the Indy Show too?

Could not believe my eyes when I saw it :o. The gents running the booth did not have much info on the bike. That, and I was in a hurry to get out of there. Just my luck...
