How hard these C&J frames to find? Bruised  Ask Jeff Cole to build you one. He restarted a small series for the XR500 motor last year (I bought 4 of them). May be he also does the 300. |

frko...heres some pics of my mates C&J ...58 hp ..cracking bike..
58 bhp is very precise and very high for a pre RFVC 500. Interesting. Was this measured on a dynamometer? Some claim to be able to get even more but it is all top end power only good for flat track. |

I seem to recall reading somewhere that Rod Spry or someone close to his circle is reproducing C&J frames in the UK. Perhaps one of our Pom mates can enlarge.... |

Rod Spry sells. The guy from Hectors Racing fabricates. Now, is a C&J not built by a C&J guy actually a C&J...? Opinions will no doubt vary...  |

The ignition may be fine to 12k rpms but I can't imagine an RFVC engine living long at those rpms. Rob Muzzy made good hp from them but most other tuners didn't make big numbers.

I think we are talking about the NON RFVC motor here. In any case, with great power comes great breakage ... |
