I've read through the Avanti thread on here and have been very impressed with the comments and reviews people have given it.
I'm building a 200 motor and was going to fit an Avanti kit to it............however I've just fitted an RT 195 kit to my mates scooter and have been very impressed by the quality of it and the performance so far (it's still not run in yet)
Has any one got like for like comparrisons of both kits? I'm intending to use a 30mm dellorto and a JL3 / franspeed pipe on it.
Thanks.
RT 225 or an Avanti?

I have both, both good kits! So take your pick! Basically will double your BHP, cost a bit omore in fuel, and give you a bit of a grin!

GT200 no doubt in my mind after just covering over 2000 trouble free fun miles on one in 12 days.

It's the Avanti for me.......but to be fair i've never had anything to do with the RT.
From reports the performance seems similar on both the RT and the Avanti, but for me the larger cylinder and head on the Avanti is a big plus.

I've built and ridden both kits with good results along with rb225 which is as good out of box as gt big block kit which I've just built, they all serve a different purpose ie avanti sprinting, GT kit for rallying once rt kit went pop as avanti is too thirsty ... Id think what i want from scooter and build engine to suit
