I believe the dual exhaust was more aesthetic than functional. I'm not sure there would be a measurable difference in cylinder head temperature between a single or dual port arrangement on an engine this small.
@@cyclerefinery I read it in a motorbike magazine, many, many years ago, when current refrigerating systems didn't exist, at least in commercial bikes. I still remember how it said that the hottest part of engine was preciselly the part where the cylinder joins the pipe and that the multiple pipes helped to absorb the heat. I thought it a was simple but brilliant idea, Well, in that case it was a four cylinder with four pipes. It was a japanese bike, I can't remember which model and make, only the concept. Sorry my poor English. Eskerrikasko once again.
Great video, very interesting bike. A question: the double pipe improves the refrigeration of the engine? Eskerrikasko!

@@cyclerefinery OK, thanks!

Wondering how fast this little beauty can go?
Tops our around 50 mph.
