Took the Falc for its first proper run today for its M.O.T from Reading to Oxford Broke down twice due to fuel starvation (inline fuel filter causeing restrictive flow.. Doh ! ) Anyway straight through no problems and apart from fuel problems and having to cane it in third (literatly) and over taking cars as if there going backwards then into forth head down ..........Oooooooh my word its fucking awesome ...  Got to strip it AGAIN and put the zirri box in it and that should sort it ........Hopefully Got a swallen wrist from (wait for it !!! ;D ) useing the mentally reinforced clutch ..... All i can say its totally mental and certainly not for the faint hearted.....Watch this space ....

Can't imagine the look on the MOT guy's face when he first saw scoot. ;D
BTW does an examiner do a test run?

Well with its prescent gear box and peak power 10,500 rpm ( but does rev like foooook you think its never gonna stop ) its pulling 70 plus in third  .... then forth i dont realy know as i was surpose to be running it in ( yeah like fuck) plus using the back roads to oxford so alot of changing down alot .... It did pull forth but not great ,plus im not happy having to rev the nuts out of it to pull it every time ....... so the zirri is going to be perfect as im using 90/90/10 rubber on it tooo..... And no our local M.O.T guy doesnt take it out i think he dare'nt ...he was pretty chuffed at mine and soosh's parma but then soosh's is a 90ss with a fat Hammer (schwing) zombie hanging out the side looks the nuts .... Its fucking load toooooo
