Differences beetween Nordwest 93/RC 600R 93 Engine/Weight

Post by Bekas » Sun Jan 20, 2013 11:02 pm

hello guys, I wonder what is the difference between these two engines?
Between the weight of a motorcycle to the other?
From Nordwest 600 for RC 600 R, if someone could explain??
Thanks

Hello Bekas
the engine of the RC-R, type 230 and 232 is compressed higher.
Piston with bags instead of hollow piston. Jetting is greater.
And a much larger air box.
the weight comes from an aluminum rear frame and the missing starter motor
and the smaller battery
Greeting Dietmar
Die Strecke ist der Weg und ist dieser auch noch so verworren, sollte Er wenigstens kurvenreich sein !
