Well said Joe. I believe it is very important to support ESR. He is going through a shit storm trying to bring his products to market. I’m patiently waiting for cylinders.

Yea, the guy has been around since day 1. I remember in early 2000's when you'd call and get one of his staff. Good old days...

Speaking of good old days, not a long forgotten part, but Joe (croat), I saw this ebay listing, so I looked at some old IM's and found that you bought that nib 86 seat from me for $375, plys like $30 to ship. Seemed a litlte expensive at the time, but now seems like "the good old days" too sadly.

$1300 nib seats... in Portugal

Krank It Racing exhaust.   Cool explanation of how the exhaust came about.
From Ray Zarcone:
Ok, so here's the story.. Scott and I tested 3 different pipe mfgs during the mid 90's. 1) LRD which was on all the quads we built for Vescovi, Gust and Kister. We wanted our own pipe so we worked with Arlen to design us a unique pipe that was different than what he was building for everyone else but still retained LRD's signature adjustable chamber. Then we got a hold of Ray Larez out at Graydon Proline and they built us a pipe according to our specs but was non adjustable, there was only one of these ever made, it was nickel plated and had no tags on it. Decent pipe and I have no idea where that one is today. Then finally we got a hold of Richie at Dynoport being that he was so close to us it only made sense.. We sent him all the specs based on what we were looking for, basically a TT LRD pipe and MX LRD pipe non adjustable is what we had him design with a few of Scott's tweaks here and there.. The result was the Krank It Cannon pipe and Silencer which you see above in Joshua's picture.. Not too many made and it was a great pipe that matched up well to Scott's cylinder work. So to answer your question Josh, yes that is a super rare Krank It Cannon.. It was mfg by Dynoport for Krank It made specifically for us back in '96.. Congratulations on obtaining one of these and it still appears to be in decent shape.. Krank It Racing We're Going To The Front You Coming? 😉

I liked that RK head. I think it's a more useful design to have the extra material for the dome than the more common coolhead offers. I also liked the dome oring solution better. I got mine through Rick Kirmil (macdizzy) years ago.
I reached out to Kelsey in 2021 for a new head, but replied that he's not making it anymore, but would maybe tool up for around $6-700. His market I think is mainly snowmobiles.

Coincidentally, I have designed and am waiting for the second prototype for a head based on the RK head. A couple pics of the first.

Flywheel weight.  Not forgotten but it’s cool to see the old school packaging.  “Superfly”

I remember people discussing this, probably on macdizzy. Myself, I can't imagine how it would result in a more powerful combution event. Fun memories...

MMF Racing is now AC Racing.

Cool seeing the 2 versions of MMF Racing stickers.
