It's a piaggio typhoon/sr 172 with 55mm crank making it a 183 as it says on my speedo
..but is has had the works done on it by srt(shinyred)...it's quick


Engine wise it's been a nightmare as it was originally a 360 twin!!




After lots of money and time i gave up on it and put it back to a single but then engine case snapped in half ..so it was new engine and then the works done it by shiny :

Yes M8, It's been spot on and no issues as yet,was worried about the vibrations but so far so good
What you don't realise is,when youv'e got an accurate speedo is how slow you really go ie following around cars in a 30 limit and only doing 27 and to do a proper 80 takes some doing
Tryed the 0-60 run with it..and even with an un planned wheelie i still had a respectable 7.1 secs .I think with a bit of practice i could get it a bit lower...Overal well pleased with it.

7.1 secs, your misses said you was quick but I didn't realise the poor girl was getting short changed

You need to get that pot belly over the handlbars to stop the wheel lifting I reckon oh and how long can you hold that old pinker at 80mph for before it lets go :wtf:
