We have a few spare parts left (the picture doesn't show it, but there is some organization to this mess)

The motors are out and on their way to Hanshaw Racing Engines as I type this

This is a good shot showing a few of the many changes on the new motor. The heat exchanger has been completely redesigned, and you can also see the separate cylinders from upper case half.

 

[TwoWheeledWonder]

You really know how to get us all drooling.

Also that engine looks sexy even out of the bike. Hopefully it performs as good as it looks.

We hope so too!

Random question.

The top picture of all the parts with the Daytona in the background why is that far bikes fork all gold? Or is that just me going dumb from being up for two days?

It's the OEM Ohlins forks from the 675R and they have a coated lower tube. You can see our 2009 next to it with the standard forks.

Here's how all three of the girls sit now that the motors have been sent off. Seems like a good, clean stopping point for the end of the week.

 

[TwoWheeledWonder]

Yeah I knew they were coated I guess I just have never seen them at that angle to look so gold.


Also any plans on making a tail section, the stock ones look so heavy, could just be looks though.

Also have you guys been able to weigh stuff to see how it compares to the older gen?

 

[RidersDiscount]

The new exhaust is about 2 lbs lighter, and the wheels definitely look a bit smaller. I have yet to pull the tires and confirm that they are indeed lighter than the 2012's.

 

[TwoWheeledWonder]

Ah ok I am sure a bunch of us would appreciate to see what all is different and yeah knew the exhaust would be lighter with less piping, but 2lbs is a nice drop.

i see you guys got the attack triples to work!

very nice pics, TJ! I'm definitely jealous that I don't have 3 tables with 3 brand new 675's sitting on them!

Hey TJ!! They look awesome and will start to evolve into monsters!!! Silly question.. So you build 4 of them (maybe 5), keep one for the team and sell the others to customers?

We will build 3 for Joey (2 to be used at the AMA events and the 3rd as a backup). The 4th will most likely stripped completely down and used as spares.

The triples did bolt right up, however the steering stops are completely different so most likely we will be bolting a bumper to the frame.

TJ, once you have the bikes setup comparable to the 12' you guys were running at Daytona is it possible to give us the dynoed power variances between the two?

I'm not asking for specific total output numbers, as I'm sure those are hush hush.

I just want to know how much better the new engine is compared to the outgoing...

There is a video comparing 2012 to 2013 saying it is quicker and better in every respect. Also has a bump in hp and tq which they confirmed on the dyno and smoother delivery. I think its was posted in the video section.

I saw the video a few weeks back. I am curious to see what less stroke and more bore will do with the same list of mods.

My bad I thought you meant stock vs. Stock.

Amazing thread TJ, thanks for keeping us updated on the builds. The resolution and color on these images are high quality. What kind of camera are you using?

 

[RidersDiscount]

We have a couple of different Canon's
