Hi Guys

This isnt a "can i have a copy" begging post as i know how much work goes into the work.

Last year my team designed using a 04 R6 and as part of my project i ran ricardo wave simulatons and designed intake and exhaust systems. I choose it as i couldnt find any data (head geometary, port locations, sizes, cam profiles) of the Aprilia.(the most impresive data is of the Skoda Rallying 1289cc engine with a GT20 on it....raw)

I hope to use the Aprilia engine this year if i can ge enough data on it. I have a model that was generously sent to me by a fellow UK team with accurate ccm points but thats as far as it goes.

Is there anyone who would be generous enough to help me out with any of the data needed to model in wave and the head geometry for intake and exhaust packaging. I understand just how much work goes into these measurements so i would be prepared to share R6 data in exchange and anything else you might need that i have.

Thanks in advance

G'day guys and girls,
I would also be interested in some data for the 550 for a validation report that I'm doing. Could someone give me some rough figures for the restricted power and torque.

Also if you have the wet weight of the engine and gearbox that'd be great as well.

Thanks heaps

Hi Scannee;

I'm a member from the portuguese team, IST Lisbon. A new team has been created, with new members, so we are still trying to learn and "guide" each other. I'm one of the guys responsible for the conception of the intake and exhaust systems and once that we'll use a Yamaha R6 engine I'd like to ask you if you could help us the engine info that is required to model in Ricardo software.
I look forward to hearing from you.

Sincerely,
Henrique Cunha

There is/was a good point cloud model in the shared file CAD library that has the diameters, location, and orientation of the intake and exhaust ports. They check out nicely with the actual engine and are great for CAD purposes.
