Gotta love those DACS, had a blatt on one last week. My undertsnding that there wont be any more made now apart from the 12 or so already out there with one still left to sell. A good thing for those with one as they will probably hold there money..
Maybe they will be up with the Rossa is scooter law in years to come...

I've got a Readspeed fully watercooled one (same as above)....power can be what ever you ask for! The whole idea of watercooling though is for longevity so I decided on a touring set up.TS1 240 top end with a JL3 curly and 34 delly will get you 30bhp with 21lbs of torque which is still high. Different exhaust and the worlds your oyster!
Obviously a six plate clutch is essential and have had mine a couple of years with no problems at all from Jeromes work. Had a couple of issues with the 'plumbing' side but that was all done by me
...Can't give you costs but I'm sure Readspeed will!
The pump aspect is a bobbin driven off the crank end so NO electrics...the housing is off a Gilera Runner I think...
Dave,not hi jacking your thread!! Honest!!

Next time you plum your rads in try and make sure its not 85 degrees, and outside a pub that's shut for the day.
