re firing interval

Post by tomrux » Tue Mar 20, 2007 7:58 am

hey can anybody out there settle an argument for me???
what is the firng interval on a cb72.
I reckon it is 360 degrees ie both pistons rise and fall together
Friend reckons 270 degrees ie pistons up and down at opposite times

Most CB72 HONDAS have a 180 crank. (one piston up one down)
So they fire Right/Left, Exhaust/Exhaust.
The DREAM C/CA72/77 engines are 360 crank and as one fires the other exhausts. ............lm
