Do you think the mods you have made to the cowl and the rear runner have helped your cooling, and are the front dampers the Rich Presley/ Frank Sanderson ones, they look nice and smaller that I thought they would .
Top bike by the way,

How do you rate those Rich Presley dampers?

There can be no downsidw to it, I have seen racing Lambrettas with similar scoops fitted to there bikes, so I think it is an advantage, with the power outputs of tuned engines nowadays, any extra cooling has to be an advantage due to the extra heat created, I will let you know when I have been on a good run with it, and let you know if the EGT has dropped from previous runs.

By the way it was a simple modification I used an old cylinder cowling and cut it up to fit onto the flywheel cover.

A little hard on the damping to start with but , I adjusted the damping lower than the standard settings, (which is very simple to do) and they work very well a good feeling on the front giving more confidence when cornering and braking.

Looking good rossi46 the wheels are a nice touch, are all the engine prob sorted now matey..?

Love the caution badge...should have that on my gravestone

yeah she is running like a train !!! only problem is I broke 3rd gear !! so looking for another GP200 Italain gearbox now and going to have it Cryo treated.

RE (GEARBOX) the dactek one might be out soon..do believe there still testing to destruction.

A very very tidy example. I like the seat, does it lift or has it got a cut out for the juice?

Cheers

REALLY fantastic scooter. Like the front brake caliper - not seen that one before. What was the Dyno figure ?
