Re: Gearing issue

Sorry for the confusion guys, no it does pull like the space shuttle in top (not quite the full 37 million horsepower but near enough) as i say i fitted a 16 tooth front sprocket to replace the original 15, just blasts through the gears and sits there at 55-60 which makes me think just going up 1 to...

Re: Gearing issue

Not sure of the torque figure as I've never had it on a dyno but it seems pretty good, I got caught out on it once in traffic and ended up pulling off in third! No problem. 14.5 stone on a good day haha.

Must admit I did wonder what the three shims were for included with the stator back when I fitted it but as there were no instructions incl...

Re: BGM flywheel

Hi. I have fitted 3 BGM stators to 3 different motors and had to send them all back as the centre stepped boss on the rear is machined incorrectly causing misalignment to the mag housing.one engine actually twisted the crank due to the flywheel touching the stator coils .I think they've modified th...

Re: Which pipe??

Ancillotti exhausts are good but by christ they are badly made, for £190 quid mine lasted a year and my mate's about the same before the internals started rattling about and breaking up. Looking for a new one myself just now and the scootopia clubman seems a decent price but haven't really looked i...

Re: 198 mugello which carb ??
