TKM BT82

Throughout the life of the BT82 there have been upgrades and additions to the engine to offer greater choice and also make the engine stronger. However performance has been held static so an early engine has virtually the same power as a recent one, though not the same strength. The engine is not sealed and can be serviced at the Tal-Ko Racing factory or by local dealers or even by the drivers/mechanics themselves.

The Junior and Senior Extreme engines are exactly the same with simply a cylinder re-bore and cylinder head re-machine taking the engine from the Junior 100cc to the Senior 115cc. Thus an engine can be used by a driver from 11 years right through to Senior. Carb air restrictor plates are used to control power against weight within each class giving very close power to weight figures so drivers of every size and weight can all race together.
