Developments as on 1/1/2003

Having realized this project was going nowhere fast and that no amount of efforts or begging for scraps of information on the net would help. A considerable outlay of money was set aside to educate myself on two strokes. These are some of the items purchased.

	Mota 6.0 Two Stroke Simulation Software.
	Design and Simulation of Two Stroke Engines by Gordon Blair
	Automotive Electrical Systems
	Complete Guide to Motorcycle Mechanicals.
	Jennings
	Two Stroke Performance tuning by G Bell
	Misc. SAE papers.
	Microchip PicPlus Startup Kit & Programmer.
	A dozen books on Microchips and Assembly.

The nose was put to wheel for close to 10 hours a day.

For close to a year. The outcome has been two new products our Digital CDI and new barrels for the RD350 with custom liners. These are some of the figures off the new liners. Click Here.

The quest for more knowledge on this subject continues. And funds permitting we will will hope to have a complete new motor and pipes based on our liners. Wish us luck.
