915cc cb750 engine installed

What just happened?

First off, I didn't revive the thread, you did after someone posted a post about the old thread. You referenced an old post of mine from 2011 in which I complemented your reputation. I don't know you and wasn't bad mouthing you in any way shape of form.

In the post today, I didn't attack you or your data. I mentioned that we have seen different numbers on a small Cb200 head and wondered why the data you mention was lower. Could be the answer is that they were actually measured at a different pressure, or perhaps smaller ports flow better at low lifts. I don't know, so I asked. I make zero claims for knowing much about CB750 flow numbers and did not make any reference to them. I referenced a Cb200 head that according to the numbers seem to flow more at very low lift and I was curious.

It may not have read that way at your end and that's a problem with short messages. Sometimes they can be misconstrued.

I'm, not making any claims on behalf of others, and even less for myself. I hear good things from others about your work but instead of a reasonable answer, we go off at a tangent. I agree that face to face we would have a very different discussion and I'd enjoy that opportunity.

The funniest thing about the CB750 you mentioned is I have been working on pipe and port simulations for a completely different bike out of South OZ that seems to be a major competitor of your client. I'm not doing the work on that one, just running his numbers and some different scenarios. I had no idea you were involved in that project. If the scuttlebutt is right, your man may have more HP than mine - Stephen seems to think so. :)
 
The Berreth thing didn't seem like a compliment or better yet like a lop sided one. I have seen his work up close and it is a chisel compared to mine. You did mention the fat guides and "lumpy" ports. I will admit I could have tapered them but in the real world and my very fair prices..... The "lumpy" ports you described do not exist.
I do not know the cylinder size, test pressure etc for the CB200....you saw with your own eyes my set up and pressure. That is indisputable.
I apologize for the tangent but I am fed up with BS claims backed with nothing.....I am not accusing you of that (though I certainly may have as I am a bit sensitive to this stuff). I stand by my work and have #'s to show as you can see.
Yes....I know of your client in a vague manner and yes.....you are correct.....you and I would have a generous and great conversation (as long as wife's are not there ) about it.
I consider the matter settled sir. Thanks!

Settled in very good manner I hope after a nice PM from teazer...I appreciate it sir and maybe we can do do some research together....I have some of the goods. ;)
