Got about 1,500 miles on mine now. Swapped the exhaust for a franspeed race, had to mess about with the jetting, it's still a bit on the safe side but it goes like a scalded cat. I absolutely love riding it, I just can't get enough of it.

I'm booked in for some scootererotica dyno treatment on Saturday to get it set up right. I can't wait to give it some up (and down) the motorway.

Just a quick update. Tried running her with a Breath Sweet and the drain in the rubber elbow, but she conked out after a few minutes as too rich or the same spitback build up in the elbow. Whipped the filter off and she's running fine and dandy. I have moved the needle clip up one notch to clear a rich four stroking issue at quarter throttle and she purrs now. Just have to ride her wearing wellies now. :roll: :lol:

Bit of an update. having developed an air leak on the casing and buggered the piston and plating I've re-built the engine and just had it Dyno'd @ Scooterotica. Got 22.88 HP and 19.48 Ft/Lbs. My current set up: 35mm TMX, Franspeed Race, 4 plate clutch with Malossi springs, Indian GP gearbox with 46 x 19, BGM stator with M-tech, standard size crank.

really pleased with the result as this is with no alterations to the barrel and casings only matched to barrel......a proper "bolt-on" kit that does what it says on the box

That's a nice amount I've got around 21hp with a franspeed super tourer and a 30mil carb.
