Hello All,
Today I will be attempting a SS1610k ride on a 1999 Honda CT110 (postie bike).
To keep things interesting I have replaced the 110cc engine with a 1979 CT90 (90cc) engine that I have built over the last two years. To put it in perspective the bog stock 110cc engine developed 6.04rwhp on the dyno, the 110cc engine is 22% larger in capacity than the 90cc engine, but tadpole’s (said bikes name) engine develops a whopping 8.64rwhp…that is 43% more power J. I’m now sure it is stretched to the limit and rattles a bit, I will have to hold it at 9000rpm for 22hrs so it will possibly over heat and explode somewhere near Kalgoorlie on Tuesday arvo, but I’m gonna give it a go.
This ride has been done on a 110cc postie bike by a fellow FarRider already, he finished in around 23.5hrs with an overall average (OA) of 70.?Km/hr. I hope to maintain an OA above 74km/hr and be the first in Australia to do 1600km in 24hrs on a 90cc bike.
Below is the link to my spot tracker so you can watch the progress if it takes your fancy.

P.S. As you can see there has been a whole heap of Crazy bubbling up inside me over the last two years, so I won’t be offended it you all get together and run a book on the outcome.
