Malossi Screw Kit Cylinder Head Testa Rossa

Malossi MHR

The MHR series from Malossi is generally available in 3 categories for the most popular models:

• MHR Replica
• MHR Racing
• MHR Team

The 3 model series differ in terms of performance and competitiveness. The MHR Team series includes the top-of-the-line  models with outstanding performance for racing. The MHR Racing is in the middle, and the MHR Replica adopts the basic features of the higher versions, with the emphasis on reliability for everyday use rather than maximum performance for the race track.

Malossi Testa Rossa

The Testa Rossa is the latest generation of high-end cylinders from Malossi. The series is the successor to the famous MHR Team, which has long been a reference for scooter tuning and racing. As the name Testa Rossa suggests, the cylinder head is red, which could possibly be interpreted as a small allusion to another famous Italian brand.

The Testa Rossa cylinders represent the state of the art and are extremely powerful. The cylinders were originally introduced with the C-One and RC-One crankcases, but are also compatible with original crankcases, provided they can be machined to fit the new components.

Main features of Testa Rossa cylinders

• 7 transfer ports
• Bridged exhaust
• 1-ring piston
• Two-piece cylinder head with special combustion chamber (improved water volume)

To ensure reliability and top performance, the Testa Rossa must be used with the appropriate tuning components and re-adjusted: reinforced crankshaft (racing or high-end), a suitable tuning exhaust and a larger carburetor and intake.
