Re: new engine

Jeb at Sound Speed Scooters in Seattle is the one behind it. He has some funding to build an electric scooter. If history lends itself, he is a fantastic craftsmen, he pioneered a great moped racing frame that he jigged up and made a production of, so he should do well here. I hope it works out for ...

Re: How to mount a LD tank into a series 3 frame?

PS - my tank is bare, no stirrup strap or securing nut on the tank. If using these are the best way to mount it, does anyone have a spare of either lying around? is the filler/done nut the same thread as fork top nut?

Thanks again.

How to mount a LD tank into a series 3 frame?

Hey All, Seen a lot of photos of cut downs and sprinters with LD tanks mounted up, but no close up details? I am looking to do so in my cut down and am curious how to best mount the tank? I have a TV200 (I know, but it was rear ended & cut when I got it) frame and a LD tank with the breather tub...

Vega Legshields for cutdowns

Where do people source Vega leggies for a cutdown?

How much modification does it need to fit an Li frame that is 2" short?

Any experience with the SSC Vega legshield? Or the CF ones?

Anyone help and details are appreciated. I love the look, just trying to plot my plan of attack!

Thanks

Re: Best all around RB pipe?

Anyone know anything about the Bullet exhaust? Dyno graph looks promising... I feel like another consideration in my pipe choice should be running temps???

Best all around RB pipe?

OK, I have searched around and am now looking for an opinion. What is the best all around pipe for the RB22? I have a RB with GP200 (Indian) gearing running 46/19, TMX35 and currently a NK race pipe. The bike runs great and is a ton of fun, but after some miles I have realized this is not the right ...

Re: RS Clubman

While I do understand a TS1 with a clubman will not be as fast as one with a JL4 etc, I am OK with that. I have a GP with a TS1 and a JL4 and it is fun, but I am looking for my S2 to look more stock-ish, and have more low end, thus the dream of a RS Clubman... Any tips on how to get in touch with Ra...

Anyone have info on the RS pipes??? Where/how to buy??? other simi...
