It used to be Ian Franklands old group 5 machine.Did intend to race it but as i was on about £120 a week in 1995,there was no way i could afford to so just charged the battery up on the weekends and give it a blast around the village.It was 158cc and was based on an Autisa barrel.
Kin did it go!!
Was loud too and remember a mother grab her child and pull them away from the path as i burnt passed them.Eventualy i stuck the motor in a different frame and grassed tracked it.Was a nightmare on the grass

I busted two Italian GP boxes on it too but changed to LI in the end.It skinted me out buying s**t like that when i was on a low wage.
The sound used to bounce off all the garages there when it fired up.
