Title: Diesel powered, Cheney framed 547cc dirt bike
Post by: Quicksilver on July 25, 2008, 08:52:03 pm

An interesting bike.  :)

This D.E.R.A. / R.M.C.S Bike has an Enfield Bullet crankcase (beefed up) and a specially made top end which boasts 4 valves! It is of 547cc and produces between 16-18 BHP. Diesel injector is a modified unit from a car while the gearbox has but 4 gears. Apparently the engines flywheel is lighter than you'd normally expect to find on a diesel. The bike clocks 156 MPG @ 40MPH and 184 MPG @ 30MPH. The engine is mounted in a frame supplied by Eric Cheney. This bike easily pulls away from 250cc petrol bikes on cross country runs according to test riders
