Beemer time...

Marcolino's engine is back after a rather pricey upgrade: ported/flowed heads, lots of new seals and gaskets, new piston rings, a new conrod (!), new bigger carburetters, and refurbished electrics, including a brilliant upgrade to electronic ignition, which is supposed to be worth up to 5hp. Awesome.

And here's the conrod that got replaced. It's visibly bent, with an ominous hairline fracture that would have turned it into shrapnel for sure. Good save...
