.. you would have to "adjust" many other things to get the best out of a TKM on a Rotax chassis.
EG:-
gearing
weight ( equal weights , or correct class weights ?)
set up adjs ..axle stiffness etc
seat position
you could even argue that a Rotax chassis was too stiff for a TKM to give its best.
Better to compare race results ...
... but the TKM will always be slower because it has a huge power handicap.
