There probably was meant to be a smiley on the end. I don't know who Darrell Taylor is.

I dont tend to ask much on forums as you never know what response you get, I had a mate who used to live on these things and chat s**t all day but we all knew it was where Lambrettas went to die as he couldn't even fit a cable.

I can build an engine but I'm not a "preferred tuner" so maybe who built the engine etc. comment just pushed me over the edge.

The pipe transformed the engine, I've fitted a BGM and the thing is exactly as I expected. GP50 was awesome fun in third but not in top.

I was maybe just a bit frustrated i'd spunked £1000's and the engine was basically s**t.

Ron and Adam have been very helpful in private.

What colour power band should I fit or is it 3% or 4% premix?

Which crank?

I've never heard of that happening before, all the others we've sold have been fine.....

Would it be possible to and a decibel meter to the test as well, also what about the add on mufflers for Clubmans, there seems to be a few on offer but no info to say if the work or what the impact is on performance....there seems to be a trend for wide power band and a bit quieter

I was on FB and mentioned how good Scootopia Clubmans were and a dealer came on and got all defensive over BGM Clubmans. He said, they were Sito's! I've had a Sito before and they seem totally different - tail pipe doesn't block the level plug, bracket is strongly welded and the down pipe is total different.
