Novarossi Keep-Off .21-4 & .21-7XL

Along with releasing their new Virtus Power .21 on road engine, Novarossi have also introduced two new offroad .21 engines, the Keep-Off .21-4 and the Keep-Off .21-7XL. Similar to the Keep-On engine released last year the Keep-Off motors sport the patented new main ball bearing which reduces rotating inertia and increases the engines scavenging. The new bearing features a narrower centre bearing ring than the outer ring, the result of which is increased throttle response and a higher top speed. Both motors, a 4-port and a 7-port comes with ceramic/steel ball bearings but are also available with all ceramic bearings.

Novarossi launches Virtus Power engine line

Novarossi has unveiled their all-new generation of high-end engine today. The unveiling of the new Model family goes by the name of ‘Virtus Power’ also marks the launch of series production of the new units. The new engine line features a different position of the carburetor, which is now offset from the centre line of the engine. This new position offers a better mixture flow through the crankcase’s intake and crankshaft, with new engineering guaranteeing a better balance with improved fuel efficiency and a better power curve. Other changes include the use of 6 screws on the cooling-head instead of 4 to ensure a better sealing between sleeve, bottom head and the crankcase. The first engine to be released using this new technology is the Virtus.21 long stroke 9 port on road engine.
