Each to their own for sure, but for the money, a conti twist gets my vote. Especially given its good speed and load ratings.
I've tried S1's and Racemans in the past, but i've now got twists on all my scoots and so far so good!

Re: AF175 Cast Kit Timings
Hello Darrell Thanks for the reply The engine is having an old AF clubman fitted along with a 22mm Jetex. The chap will only be "pootling" rather than trying to squeeze every last drop of go from this lump and isn't expecting the earth performance wise. I'd suggested a sensible expected cr...

AF175 Cast Kit Timings
Just been measuring up an AF175 kit that has had a very light seize. The combination of piston skirt length and inlet position seem to point to the inlet timing being very conservative indeed. Exhaust and transfer come out at around 157 and 123, but the inlet seems to be around 130! Anyone had a mea...

70.4mm piston source.
I'm looking to buy a decent quality 225 piston at 70.4mm dia. Preferably with a full length skirt and thin rings. Does anyone have any recommendations? I'm thinking £50 - £60 rather than asso type money as it's for a temporary fix. So far i've look at the thin ring piston on beedspeed for £49.99, bu...

Re: Wadding and gauze inside a Clubman
Ha! That's my image of the standard box.
Took that just before I shoved it in the skip at work.
Curiosity got the better of me as to what was inside....
Blimey! It's made it onto scoot.net too.
