Team Orion have a range of completely new .21 buggy engines, comprising of 3 motors, as well as a fourth for truggy. The new line all use the CRF technology and are available in one standard and two factory versions. All include the new crankcase which has been designed to improve strength with all the internals improved upon. The piston and liner have been updated with the piston having been machined from a different material to improve the quality, which together with the updated crankshaft timing help to improve the fuel mileage of the engine. The standard line is noticeable by the silver crankcase and will come in a 3 port version, while the 2 tuned engines have a black crankcase and come in 3 and 5 port versions and include ceramic bearings and hand finished internals. All the improvements to the manufacturing process have improved the cost of the engine which is being passed onto the customer. Finally in the engine line the .12 will get a new aluminium carburetor and we were told that the .21 on road engine will finally become available this year as a 7 port motor.
