is there a hole in that piston?

there is ..must be using for checking/measuring purposes

I like it, someone who builds scooters and has a case of Carlsberg Export in the garage

Love it. It already looks more than the sum of its parts.

The hole in the piston is a weight saving measure .No really it's a motor I am doing for someone and it just happened to have a hub on so I could sit the scoot on wheels to weld the side stand on in the right place and jig the exhaust.As for the beer I never have time to drink it as I tend to just sit down and look at the scoot instead of working on it :freak: There will be a 2.5 ltr tank in the seat unit which will be linked to the 6.5 ltr one under the seat loop,these are away at the moment being TIG'ed and pressure tested.This won't have a great range with the 34 Dellorto going on but then again it's built for scratching about on not great distances as my bones aren't as flexible as they used to be

I think you need to stop messing about on here and get on with it!!! Those tools are still in the same place as last time i saw them mate.

is this the scoot u showed me on your phone,sounds like it will never get finnished if your selling bits mate but must say was looking really good mate

Looks brilliant. Keep up the great work
