Hey Buddy,

Is there any chance we are going to see any anodized black headers for the black monsters and pipes? Just curious.......

Take care,
David

Check out this pile of POWER.
Atlanta 60 has piles of YS's like that. Probably Hanno's as well.

Hey Brian,

Payback is a B___H, isn't it........................LOL ! ! ! ! ! Funny thing is, I just threw that question out on a whim. I didn't think there was a snowball's chance you know where that I'd get a positive response from Buddy. My only problem is that I still don't know which plane I want for my black monster so I don't know which header I'll need................[:@]

Take care,
David

You can order them from other NovaRossi distributors on the net. The problem with the black is that it rubs off, finish doesn't last. Most people I've seen with the black, end up wishing they had the aluminum when finish comes off or get's scratched.

Why does everyone talk about Nova Rossi in such glowing terms, but no one mentions the AXE Rossis in any terms? Are they that bad?

The black NR is brand new. They haven't been out in the long enough to make this assessment.

I personally have no experience with the AXE Rossi's to date. Mine is the REX NovaRossi.

The AXE Rossi are wonderful engines. The side exhaust AXE Rossi engines, especially those with the VP mod are probably superior to "most" production side exhaust engines.

Sadly, there are no new AXE Rossi rear exhaust 60/61/65s being made, as far as I know. It seems to be mostly a matter of what is available in the configuration that you personally wish to use

I think it is great that NovaRossi, YS, SMT Distributing, LLC, Richard Verano and others have taken it upon themselves to make rear exhaust engines available to the Classic Pattern community. We no longer have to search the auction sites for worn out, overpriced engines! Wish Enya could get their rear exhaust AAC 61 back in production.

I wish I could get to the basement/garage, but my legs won't permit it. If I could, I'd take a picture of my Rossi AXE .61 rear exhaust engine and post it here. I bought it new a few years ago. Never got to run it, so I don't know how it or my side exhaust AXE engines run.

I was speaking to the OP question as to the availability of black header and pipes. And yes, those have been out quiet long enough to judge as to whether or not the finish comes off. It does.

Hey Dave, the OP was asking about the finish of pipes, and whether or not the black comes off. I'm glad the finish isn't coming off your motor yet. Maybe it's not the same as what's used on the pipes and headers. Time will tell..we're talking a season or two here, not the two weeks you've had your engine. I have seen dozens of black pipes with the finish coming off fyi. Thank you.

How much rise is in the 40401?

Buddy, I don't suppose you can convince NovaRossi to mfg a 1.5-1.75" rise fuse-top header????
