Just how tuned is the scooter? Assuming all else is good, frame straight, bearings and suspension pins tight?

Haven't experienced wobblies on mine. Despite making 23hp on the dyno from rear wheel and quite effortless 128kmh top speed, I've not felt a need for steering damper.

Hi,have worked it out and fitting one. Well have fitted it and a frame strut , a totally different bike now. lifts the wheel and is controlled now, can also take a hand off the handlebars, couldn't before nicely. sorted Worth the time and effort to design a fabricate them. std or mild tune i sure don't need it, but higher up the tune you go it's better. this bike is over 34 hp on the dyno, at the rear wheel. If i knew how to upload some pictures on here i would.

M200s. and disc set up every uprated bar the frame. gears , wheels, tyres (up to 93 mph). clutch .EGT , bgm, FRT ,Crimez, the works ,sip stuff, special tank. power jet,short 4th etc. engine built and dynoed by a top scooter sprinter. The mods iv'e just done makes hell of a difference. Very exciting to ride, not even had it balls out yet as i would fall off the back, working up to it. it"s a missile. the case is not even ported, these make 50 bhp with a tickle,and bigger carb, don't want 50 trust me.
These were not designed for this at all, so that's why it needs anything to help it , stabilize it.

sounds fun, cant believe you just dont ride it like you stole it, 34hp with a biggg hoof of torque, bet it just points up in every gear, mines only 27 and the powerband is sort of off then on, a bit like an old mx bike, thats the trouble with the little pistons is you pretty much have to cane it all the time, fun but not for going into town unless naked

Ive just built a parmakit 144 thats done 34.14bhp and 19ftlb of torque, still pulling 25hp flat out at 80mph. Hopefully a little more to come at second dyno as it needs stronger clutch so I called time as I could hear it just about hanging in there. Also hoping to get it on mersea island rally power run dyno before that for comparison. Who built your motor?

Yes I did a three mile lap of the village a couple of days after dyno, reminded me of my old 250 KTM but the clutch caught coronavirus on the dyno so its on life support which is getting switched off today and a more manly clutch fitted, its going mersea Isalnd rally for a power run hopefully then its up for sale and it starts all over again.
