Interesting project (Mike's CR500 special).

One suggestion... 6Al4V has been tried for axles by some serious racers and nobody liked it. I imagine 7050 would be even less suited. Steel is still the favored material for axles in the higher classes of 2-wheeled racing. Large diameter, thin wall, but steel...

I'd be curious what piston/porting/pipe you end up with and who you end up having do the porting work and pipe building. I'm planning a CR500 motard and would like to move a chunk of the power from the midrange to above 6000.
