Just imagine what piaggio could do with a 300cc 2 stroke although the carb would probably be a 28 vhst or something similar...........suppose it would have to be fuel injection.
21 bhp from a 20.5mm carb

That's what my hexagon 180s do 21bhp from a 20.5mm dellorto/mikuni carb the same as the 180 runner also using a 50cc auto reedvalve so seems like there is a something going a miss with us lammie men here pouring gallons of petrol into 30/34mm carbs!!!!!!!!!!

How spooky.......i have just had a rather enlightening conversation with a very nice man about various aspects of tuning, and this carb thing was certainly an interesting part of the equation! There might just be an article about it coming to a Scootering magazine near you in the not to distant future!

Compare the cylinders two totally different animals. The carb is only 1 aspect of tuning and there is a world of difference between a SH20 and a PHBG or Mikuni 20.
