The scooter and body work is excellent, but why the paint job. It totally detracts the work put into the body work and engineering. I don't like the paint scheme, sorry.

Imagine having those skills and painting it like that. It's a great thread and how much better does it look in primer. The rear and front headlights are too big, but it is still good work. I don't like being negative about other people's work and the paint job can always change.
I need to work out how to hinge the panels. It may be easier after I have cut them.

Just found this carb on the net. Don't know if it fits a LML engine, but don't see why not. I think it will look the dogs hazels on the black engine with the Pinasco Flytech kit. Well happy with this find, if it works.

I have eventually got the engine into the frame, a little tight and a bit of grinding. Had to grind a section of the engine casing away to fit the Stage 6 carb.

The engine is in but i think i may have a problem with clearence, the manifold is only 5/8mm below the frame, so may bottom out when i park my arse on the seat.
