Snakeroad Posted November 19, 2009 Report Share Posted November 19, 2009 Hello all, I am looking for an article from Performance Bikes Magazine that had a V4 500cc race bike with variable compression ratio using hydraulics. I think it was one of Wayne Rainey's bike. Anyone remember? Thank you in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, the head inserts would drop at low engine speed, raising the compression and then lift at higher speeds to reduce detonation. I probably have the article somewhere but I have no idea where....
