BZM engine?

[oline897]

Is the BZM engine still going to be made?

[mmrlargescale]

it is still being made but as with anything italian the factories are all to happy to shout about it such a long way from the production line. BZM also got caught up manufacturing a new minimoto engine which had slowed things down also. Our last trip to italy about a month ago I held an engine inmy own hands and they claim that the 23cc engine in standard form produced more power than the Italian Championship winning touring car. they are probably going to make 2 engines, a lightweight race engine as the touring cars every gram counts and a cheaper not so light version.
BZM were really impressed with whaty we have done so far and appointed us Sole Distributor for the engine and they were hoping to have 10 test engines available this month in 23cc form. if everything is all good then the 23 will go into full production and Mr Robert will get straight to work on the 26cc cylinder and also a Bashers Cylinder cc TBA
BZM are also keen to manufacture some Trick Bits for the rest of the car so keep your eyes open

woo yay this is going to be cool and expensive

[oline897]

Are these engines going to have billet cylinders as well? I am very interested in a lightweight 26 if it is going to be produced. Do you know if they will be lighter then the Zenoah 26 Thanks for the info!

Sounds very interesting I've ridden, and worked on both their 40 and 50cc versions which were both amazing motors. I'll be very interested to see what they come up with for the 23cc version. I'll guess $550-$600 on street pricing for these little devils.

Probaly not as much as that.

We are the global distributer for BZM's engine range and Im hoping that we can get one of the big distributers in the US to support the BZM engine range.

They are going to priced in comparison to a modded Zen!

I thought I was being generous guessing about half of their big brothers pricing. But I'd love to be wrong If BZM makes an engine I'm sure I know a US distributor that is going to pick them up Also what is the likely hood of these engines being made legal for organized racing?

Organizesd racing is thier upmost concern BZM are a company for racers. When we told them about the RC bashing market they took a further interest initialy thier will be a 23cc followed by a 26cc and then some much bigger

We have sent BZM over a SS to check fitment to the baja and they will also be looking into exhausts and some other trick stuff.

[oline897]

Do you know their time frame for the engines release? 1 or 6 months away? Thanks for anymore updates!

[miniripper]

They are getting closer! Will be summer time before we see anything!

Am I safe in assuming it will fit an MCD too?

It should do!

Or it will do! This engine will fit anywhere a Zen will fit.
