Is anyone doing a Yamaha YZR500 conversion like the NSR500?

I'm doing the Yamaha 1982 YZR 500cc OW60/61 bikes, but they will be scratch built not conversions

With the little time I have available,  I've got as far as having modelled the wheels/Brakes/tyres and suspension assemblies(Rear suspension still to finish), the frame is part done, but struggling with getting the correct shape and dimensions for accuracy(Looks great from the side, but I have no top down reference images to work from to obtain the correct width/shape.). Any tips for that would be welcome.  ;D

Once the model is completed and UV mapped correctly I will release it. I was hoping to get genuine physics data(or at the very least a dyno chart for the engine physics) to really make it special, but I think it will probably have to be released like the NSR 500 with the Cagiva physics file until such time we can acquire the required physics data for the 1982 Yamaha YZR 500

The cagiva physics will be way off.....
OW70 was about 120hp, the OW60/61 a bit less....maybe 110hp.

Which one are you building? OW60 or 61? They differ in the rear suspension, swingarm and frame...so you can only do one of it ;-)
Are you using the square four (60) or V-4 (61)?

For the engine:
You can use a dyno chart of a tuned RG500.
e.g. http://rg500delta.com/RG500_dyno_charts.html#0

tbh i´m more interested in the OWC1 and onwards but i´m interested in your project too......

I'm currently building the 1982 YZR OW60 square four engine bike(as described in my post above), the one Barry Sheene(Great guy!) was riding in 1982, the year of his big Silverstone accident(Although I know he was riding his newly acquired OW61 V4 at the actual time of his accident).  :)

Are you thinking of building the 1982 Yamaha YZR V4/OW61? That would be great! Especially if you did a Kenny Roberts skin as the default paint for it too.... If not, this was the bike I was going to build for my next project.
Would also like to build the Suzuki RG500 and the Kawasaki GP bikes of that era too(Juju is currently building the Honda NS500 of the era). It would be possible then to have a good 500cc GP Champs, especially if we can give each bike, ideally accurate physics, but at the very least unique physics for each bike.  ;D

The RG500 Dyno charts will prove very useful... Thanks C21!  ;D 8)

Nice skin  ;D

Was it your intention that the lower silencer on the right is white? Normally it should have the color of the upper one  ;)

I know but I don't have the metal template. I don't think you can color it on the BIKE template. I colored the SHOWA logo in black but it's still red... :P

Very nice Jamoz, if you need the Carbon Tech logo, i have it as a .psd, i remade it new for a bike im working on.

I don't like to copy, but a black border is just the finishing touch, sorry Juju and JamoZ  ::)
