Re: could this lambretta engine be as it left the factory ?
its all going back together as is, apart from new seals and bearings and a new clutch and top tensioner, a real pleasure to work on, everything is prestine and fits so well.

could this lambretta engine be as it left the factory ?
working on a series 2 that looks as though its never been apart before, don't think I have ever had my hands on one that's never been apart, even the top chain guide is unworn, could it be as it left the factory ? the locking tabs have never been touched. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/46857896...

Re: seeking recommendation on GT200 gearing
I think your pipe is the problem, pm is a revvy pipe but your final drive ratio is better for a pipe that makes more torque, tsr evo or a fresco comes to mind, choice of pipe and final drive ratio go hand in hand. only other option is to get a bigger crownwheel.

Re: Exhaust change ..... jetting info
you will not know for sure until it is on the dyno, as im sure you already know the exhaust has an effect on fuel mixture, so if you change to another type of exhaust the fuel mixture can be altered, ive known a few people that have holed a piston after a pipe change, I would just ride it steady unt...

Re: AFR Fresco endcan
tsr evo end cans are easy to adapt as the end that has the 3 threaded holes is 10mm thick aluminium so you can re-do the holes inbetween the original holes and re-tap
