Alp, what about engine cooling?

The bike will run in the fuel class. Nitro, the fuel itself will keep it at a certain temperature.

X-ray vision??? :-D

Just got my polycarbonate sheet, no x-ray vision here! :)

Yes, Methanol will cool it, but, what percentage Nitromethane are you planning to run  :?

My engines are running on 96-98%, there are a few things I have to figure out with the APS engine. It is not going to be the same configuration (reverse head, different exhaust ports/pipe design and some other stuff).

Whew.  Start out with just a little and save the heavy load for after you get the tuneup right. :-D

Impressive, Alp.  And I thought I was a "Jack of all trades", but here is a skill I've not even begun to attain. 

I may have to bump my motor up to a true 650 and find another 50 hp to stay in this ballgame!

Nice bird, Astek,  :-o

but isn't the front 180 degree fender supposed to be separate from the main fairing?

Thanks thefrenchowl,
My fender is separate from the main fairing, but my design is different. Everybody puts their fender under or inside the main fairing, mine is on top of the main fairing, it is also less than 90 degree.
