heres some pics i took of the new head, this was the rb20 i think.
i think ben said they are waiting for the cowlings, that was 2 weeks ago, they have extra fins to the avanti head and wont fit onto the avanti, but fit all the others, my suzuki 190 conversion is going to get one.

Can't help feel it's a bit naughty. There was an outcry when a someone from Leeds marketed a chain tensioner that was the same as the one sold by Rich Taylor. Apart from a few minor differences I can't see much difference between this head and the ones sold by Ron Moss ? The irony being it doesn't fit an Avanti is not lost on me. AF were selling the Ron Moss head and must have seen good sales figures and wanted to cut out the middle man, good business sense but the scooter world is only small and independents should be encouraged and supported, can't help feel it's morally wrong.
It's a tight market out there and maybe AF should have developed something a bit different rather than jump on the bandwagon...........only my thoughts.......

I could be wrong, but I think there might be some sort of gentlemen's agreement between Ron and AF on this I'm order to avoid any unpleasantness....?mick1 wrote:Can't help feel it's a bit naughty.
