Here's mine, bought off Shocky, 82 Jet. Since that photo I have compeltely stripped it and had it blasted. I'm currently repairing panels prior to respray. It came with an Indian 150 but I am building up a 225 to put in it 8-)

That exhaust could only come from a very twisted mind ......... Simon, we need to swap movie lists very soon !

This will be going into my GP125 S Type Frame, and the 190 motor given a bit of a rest...... I intend to do some more enhancing of this little GP over the next few weeks in readiness for Spain, and next season, so I'll try and get more pics up soon.

Cheers everyone

Darrell

Did the flywheel lose a fin by accident so you balanced it out, or was it done on purpose and for a reason??

whats the reasoning/theory as regards the plating around the crankcase area...?
i can see that a lot of time and effort has been put into this ,but dont understand why.
i,m sure you have a good reason for doing this though and so hopefully you could explain.... :D

also ,does this system use internal baffles,hence just a tail pipe and no silencer....

Take a closer look........... the crankcase hasn't been plated, it's all exhaust ! ;)

The flywheel has been lightened, and then some.......... it's now perfectly balanced.

All I need to do now is modify some old cowlings I've got to fit over everything.......... wonder what BRM Speedwell's up to Sunday evening ........... :)
