Originally posted by Old Fox View PostLots of apparent contradictions in the engine design if the given specs are anything to go by.
#1 Over-square dimensions are favored for higher 'red-line' rpm's. This one gets limited at a relatively tame 8500.
#2 Four-valve head favored for freer breathing which again indicates that higher peak rpm's are targeted whereas it is not so.
#3 Peak torque claimed at 7000 rpm. Not low enough to justify the design aim of the engine to be a low-end performer.
#4 Piston speeds < 18 m/sec. Again pointing towards a low state of tune while the decided over-square points towards a targeted high strung design.
I wonder if such contradictions point towards design issues with the engine if it were to be used at its full potential. Its like the designers started with say a targeted 30 PS but encountered problems, either thermal or with machine dynamics (I suspect the latter as they are the most difficult to pin-point and eliminate), and so deliberately de-tuned it for a lower bhp output and a lower peak rpm. Just guessing but the history of engine development is littered with such instances.Thank you sandeepji and Mr.technician.Originally posted by Technician View PostThe bike is redlines at 8.5 k rpm but tacho markings exist till 10k rpm.
The engine definitely seems to be a road-going engine and not the one which can be used in a competition like dirt bike arena. When the engine is to be procured from Italy (Sadly ?), one would like to have an engine which would go on till 1 lakh kms.
No stock racing single cylinder engine with 60+ mm stroke rev upto 12-13k rpm. V-twins also packs after 10500 rpm.
CRF 150R, Ninja 250, etc. all have 45 mm of stroke or so. Even litre class is limited to 55-56mm stroke.
Otherwise, till 8.5k rpm, it seems to have more power than even Ninja. Of course, Ninja pilot can call all the horses to the task by engaging afterburner at 12k rpm to overtake a maniac MoJo pilot but Mojo pilot still would have fun till 8.5 k rpm. Waiting for a comparo of the both.
Your posts were the best and informative posts from this whole thread for me
Looking forward to sharing of information and assumptions like these

HAHA well I ride a more common vehicle,...the very upsetting, patience depleting...auto rickshaw, yes thats what i go to work in ever since my bike got hot wired from outside my home, I hope My bike blows the piston thru the tank and RIGHT UP their SKULLS!!!... It was a Turquoise Blue ZMA Blacked out tail lights and indicators, PIRELLI sport demon tires, ported the exhaust ports et all, was about to put in a high lift cam shaft But luckily I didn't ...I'm planning on picking up a MOJO to replace My 5 year old ZMA, I used to do some really sweet running wheelies on Her sometimes Even till 5th gear If I was in a good mood ;-) ...But hey I will always love the ZMA it was an amazing ride, survived a lotta crashes...bought a lotta replacement fairings ahem :-p... thats the only reason why I had it so Long...But i guess there's something new thats caught my fancy :-) ...I Really Like the Mojo and i think it'll do well...Originally posted by spiderweb View PostOT: Hey where do you work in malad, my office is near Orlem.

Sure IS!!!!
Single-to Dual Exhausts
Though derided by many as the pretender's performance system, this hybrid exhaust does enjoy a few benefits. When the engine builder uses a larger diameter tubing from the exhaust manifold to the split, this system can provide 98 percent of the flow of a true dual or crossover system. The only real drawback is absolute flow, but much of this can be addressed by using oval or "squashed" tubing for the single pipe, allowing a much larger cross-section for increased flow.
