Scooterotica

Fitting a BGM P200 Cylinder to a mates P2 Disc, all going well until I slid the cylinder over the piston and studs the cylinder bottoms out against the electric start flywheel teeth!!! about 5mm short of the engine casing, I had a look on KSC website but it doesn't mention the cylinders won't fit electric start models without modification, so what do I do ? get my mate to send the cylinder back and get a genuine one or do I grind the fin off and mess about til I get it right ?? getting tired of making scooter parts fit now

just grind the fin off .it will be less hassle

grind the fin off. a lot of kits , DR especially, need a fin grinding off to fit. its just that they were designed when vespas didnt have electric start. its not a big job, just be careful with the grinder.

Looks like I will need to grind at least a couple of mm into the transfer port wall to, is their enough meat here without going into the port ?? its not my cylinder so a bit apprehensive

if ye mate does'nt use his electric start! take the ring gear off....don,t panic gadge you won,t go near the port....

Job done, cheers

How does it go now with this barrel?
