| TL1000 Forged Lightweight Pistons | ||||||||||||
|
Less weight means less mass to spin up, giving faster acceleration. These pistons give the TL R a compression ratio of 12.6:1 and the TL S 12:1, adding even more mid-range performance. Optionally, the piston crown can be given a recently developed ceramic thermal barrier coating which retains more of the heat energy in the burning gas, providing a stronger push on the piston. |

| Oversized Stainless Steel Valves | ||||||||||||
|
Our special 21N stainless steel valves are of an increased diameter and more efficient shape for better flow, improving volumetric efficiency. They are especially beneficial with the big-bore engine. The extra size is particularly useful in allowing the seat/port shape of the head to be improved. |

| High Performance Camshafts | ||||||||||||
|
Camshafts can be reprofiled for both road and racing applications, and are useable with standard springs and retainers. They provide a stronger mid-range and extra top end performance. An engine fitted with these options and a suitable exhaust system will deliver a good, solid powerband and a peak horsepower of up to 140bhp, depending on which other changes are made. |

| New Chassis Kit | ||||||||||||
|
Our custom TL chassis is made of aircraft quality 32mm diameter T45 steel tubing with all joints TIG-welded. It incorporates a braced, dual-tube design providing enormous stiffness and strength. Rear suspension travel is 120mm, controlled by an Ohlins fully adjustable shock, with custom valving to eliminate squat while allowing a lighter spring to aid traction & ride quality. Please see our Chassis Kits page for further details. |

| Big-Bore Kits | ||||||||||||
|
We have different kits, depending on the level of performance required: there is the simple bore to 100 or 102mm which gives 1036 or 1080cc respectively. Then, we introduce our modified crankshaft/con-rods conversion which gives the possibility of 1145cc, while the longer stroke endows the engine with tremendous torque, well over 90ft/lbs. These are all bolt-on conversions, no machining required. | ||||||||||||
