looks feasable without major mods though it needs to go back in the frame about 6"

id be tempted doing a mad cut down with that though :D

the way i had it sat in there is abit deceptive, I've got a cutdown Li frame I may use, I'll dig it out and do a mock up.. cutdown would help with the wieght issue.

Does the frame clear the sparkplugs if yes I would either take the bearings out of case that are mounts and get some 1 like shiney red tuning to make some with the bore u need standard lammy and put em in and use some spacers for frame to case difference oh and use cut off boards it's easier for u

Hi!

I´m building one at the moment.

It´s still a project and far away from being finished.

Here you can see some pictures of my Lambretta auto Twin conversion:

Button, I like it, you've got further than me, on the look out for a frame loop, typically, there were loads about last year, but nothing now I want one. With the engine mount I was going to extend the existing mount tube then insert a anti rollbar type bush in there and as for the shock my frame has a hollow type shock top mount so will extend that out to fix the italjet one to... I like the endy pipes so will have to cut the side panel, also adapted a drop gp headset to take the standard italjet switches. As I want indicators also..

I heard these engines are soft? If thats the case then is it worth the bother. Aprillia sr 125/172 was the way i went and it worked a treat.
