That's lovely work but why would you put in all that effort and leave in the standard suspension instead of a proper bike style mono-shock set up? I presume there must be something in the rules?  |

he said something like: a monoshock would have taken far too long to develop. He'd rather have the standard layout at MkI stage.

He should've talked to Miller from the Hardly Rideables.  |

Never mind that....why go to all that effort and leave the crappy PX engine in there? Could have easily fitted something much faster!!! |

....like a 750cc bike engine ;D ;D ;D

why not put a motorcycle engine in and be done with it? or better still just buy a motorcycle and leave scooters to the rest of us? i dont like it. it looks like an overgrown mini moto that should be crushed by the "scooter police" i'm all for motorcycle tanks, drops and stuff like that, but it does nothing for me whatsoever. nb. i'll prob delete the post tomorrow  ;D ;D |

Luckily I am the style expert - not you. i'd beg to differ on that one - i was the king of style in 1983, look at those white socks  anyway, this threads getting too big, i'm deleting it......... |
