Mugello Problems
Posted: Fri May 12, 2017 1:18 pm
Gents, got a reed valved long stroke mugello 198 with a 28mm kehin and a taffspeed copy exhaust on my Series 2 . ( LI150 box )
Pulls really well through the gears BUT totally hits the wall on hills and into the wind. Bit of a nightmare on the way to Weston the other week ...barely 50-55 up some hills
I can compare it to riding a de-restricted 50 ....flies downhill ....just hates the strain.
I`m suspecting the exhaust first thing or that I`m just expecting too much of it. I've got an imola ultimate in my S3 and thats a completely different beast I know . But I may be expecting a bit much perhaps of the mugello ?
Ps I`m not that fat
