Re: Gori GP50 or JL Snail ?

Well the euthoria of unwrapping my new Gori GP 50 was short lived. I should have saw it as a bad omen when I checked my tracking info only to find parcel farce couldn't deliver as I was no longer residing at that address!! So anyway after some time spent on the phone it turns out that despite my ad...

Re: Gori GP50 or JL Snail ?

Cheers for that, but look how bad the coating is and how easily and quickly it burns off. Just like most coatings. No not like "most coatings" I sprayed my Scootopia clubman back in May last year with 1200 degree paint and it still looks like new, the lacquer on the Gori looks as though i...

Re: Bgm Clubman

I've just put a GP50 on an Avanti and it won't pull 5.0 gearing in top. It's strong in third 58 mph on gps. I'm wondering wether to try a 14t front sprocket or a BGM pipe. Wish this test was done already! I've been considering one for my ts1 but I'm put off by the peakiness. I think it may be bette...
