I got the scooter running, but sold it before it was completed. The scooter was pulled apart and the bodywork when one way and the engine now resides with Pete Fay, who has since become a regular acquaintance.
The steel-lined TS1 barrel had two boost ports where the inlet would have been, fed directly from the reed. The reed was from a CR500, so flippin' huge. The pipe was a Jahspeed hydraulically formed item, adapted specifically for the unusual route. The radiator came from an RD350 and was completely hidden beneath the false tool box. The cool air was ducted beneath the front mudguard, through the rad, and out the floor: no need for lots of holes in the legshields.
The best, and worst thing, was the electric start. I spent ages designing and manufacturing the system using a starter motor with a right angled thrown pinion. I did some of my best machining and welding to make it. When I finally got it all wired up and pressed the starter button, it turned the engine over in the wrong direction. Doh!
