very neat and trick looking, good luck for the new season
i'm a scooter nut, apart from that i'm normal, i think
Looks much better Dan.. Would of liked a bright colour mate.. you gotta get noticed you see! As a snapper you tend to snap the bright coloured ones without thinking about it.
Good luck mate. You doing the practise day?

Nah he did ok mate. Seriously its a big change getting out there from road riding. More so today than when I started because its got faster with tyres,suspension and of course increased power. Mallory is quick and will suit the lambretta well.sean brady scooters wrote:he may do the practice day tony,..........just depends on how much of a head start you would give him.....................

We did some mods over winter, cosmetics you can see above (Vega leggies, TZ tail piece etc) and did some mechanical stuff also:
Low MSV center plug head, boyesen dual stage reeds - no stop plate, altered squish gap, different plug, re-routed exhaust, re-jetted (new rod) the Lectron to richen up mid-range, ported and flowed manifold and rubber to match the 38mm carb etc etc.
Well we fired it up today for the first time since we did all that in Nov/Dec.....f@@k me!! Pulled my arms off!
I took it for a short spin, and i thought that as we had dropped the front end and all my weight was over it, then we'd keep the front end on the floor a bit better....but it worse! Since Cadwell, we found 3bhp more at Diablos with a carb change, and i reckon 1 or 2 more from the head/reeds/squish/rod/flow changes.....its brutal, i cannot keep the front end down in 1st.....when the power band comes in, it just rides up no matter what you do.
Stuck a digital rev counter on and gave the throttle a few blips...... 11,800 rpm!!!! and there was more left!
Might be doing some 2nd gear starts this season!!
