Lambretta cut down has finally been finished, all that's left to get done is to register the scooter and its on the road. Will quickly run through the spec again:
The frame was already cut down when I bought the scooter, but I trimmed it a bit more!!:) The seat pressing I have raised at the rear by moving the rear support bracket above the rear shock mount and the toolbox door has been welded and smoothed over, and fitted with a GP dropped headset an fork stem shortened by 2 inches.
The engine is an old Iron barrel Kegra tuned Suzuki stage 5 225 barrel from 1984, the barrel is scribed at the bottom by Graham Best. It is running a Amal 34 mil carb, although I may change this, and a radically redesigned Micron exhaust from the 80's.
A one off seat has been fitted and has a gel pad fitted underneath, and it is also fitted with re bushed RD350 rear shock.

What motor are you running? If I went to all that effort I'd of gone for a tuned to the nuts RB to match the street racer look. It's still a nice cut down though mate.

How on earth did I miss that? I was having a mad moment and forget the RB motor what you are using is more than adequate and a lot cooler...RICSPEED wrote:justbretta wrote: The engine is an old Iron barrel Kegra tuned Suzuki stage 5 225 barrel from 1984, the barrel is scribed at the bottom by Graham Best.
