Re: FAG NU2205E - but made in India!!
Why companies in the US would trade with a country that supplies munitions to folks which blow our boys arms and legs off is beyond me. Because the liberal media have convinced a lot of people it's racist not to. And cash, obviously. I've never once seen a program or news spot that alluded to racis...

Re: FAG NU2205E - but made in India!!
A mate of mine has electronics manufactured in China. His biggest problem is that they agree a spec and then as soon as he's safely back in the UK, they change all of the components for cheaper ones. The first he knows of it is when customers start complaining that their equipment has conked out.[/q...

Re: FAG NU2205E - but made in India!!
Interesting to read this as I have just sent the following email to my local bearing shop as I'm building 2 TS1's and a TV 175. I will see the response. Can I get a quote on the following: Seals 22-32-5.5 x3 25-42-6 x3 33-52-6 x3 32-45-6 x3 33-50-6 x3 (FPM preferred, AS or RP minimum) Bearings 6305-...

Re: polini intake/induction kit
Basically that thing looks just like the Vortex carb that Al at Hot Rod Scooters in Fresno California has been producing for over 10 years.

Re: Speedo king. Awesome.
I've used him on 4 scoots and recommend him to everyone who asks. He's local to me and supports and attends local rallies. I'm glad to see you guys are hip to him.

Re: clutch springs
I have an AF 5 plate clutch pack with their uprated springs in my Rapido 220 with SX 200 gears. They slipped all over the place. I changed back to my Barnett/Yamaha springs and all was good. I live in San FRancisco though and need the extra grip. The springs arent' for the limp wristed though. I've ...

Re: Crank?????
Save some more money. That's my advice. You are almost there. I just got the Worb 5 "Pussy Lipped" stroker. I believe it's a Black Mec with some special touches. Comes in cheap at just 189 euros. Here in the states we have a bloke that does em on exchange for 250 and they are dope as hell....

Re: px125 longer gearing
Just picked up my PX125 fitted with a DR180 kit from alan (diablo moto) who had fitted a 22 tooth sprocket for me, since i am slightly large it requires a few revs to get away but pulls ok. On the M1 i was cruising at 6000/6500 rpm and at one point was doing 7000 :shock: :shock: Alan says 22/68 = 1...
