RT 200 Kits

[Lamaddict]

Are they fully available yet and if so any feedback?

got an rt 220, excellent quality, still building scoot and only ridden 200yds around back of house, still needs jetting in, can't wait to get on the road, pulls like a train, have a casa 185 on another scoot which is smooth and pulls, but can already tell this is another level and a half, using with pwk 30mm and devtour, just about to paint panels so will update after xmas

Great, do you know if they recommend a small carb- around 24mm with a Clubman if poss, maybe would also go for a snail pipe.

Why don't you just ask MB ?
I've always found them very helpful and who'd be better qualified to answer your questions than the people who design the kits ?

[Lamaddict]

Thanks I'll ask them but I was just wondering if anyone had an opinion

Got the RT20 kit on mine with 30mm Del'Orto and a sterling pipe on,used it to travel to IOW,Woolacombe and Bridlington,plus local running about and so far I can definately vouch for it,I've thrashed it on the motorways and it's taken it well and it doesn't mind pottering around on A roads either!!

What gearing/sprockets are you using ?

with the 24mm/clubman set up you can expect 16 - 18 bhp (mbd are developing their own clubman to suit the kits so ask about them)

with a jl3 curly then 17 - 20 bhp

with a b race curley then expect a bit more

personaly i would be concidering the biggerst bore and crank stroke that you can justify

you can go up to 255cc or easily get a 230cc or 240cc off the shelf with no casing work needed.

my brother should have a 255cc with clubman for next summer. im looking forward to seeing the results

Glad you like the engine Ian, wait till i finish your custom gp ts1 you'll love it.
Just for information's sake the RT is a 205 with 18 hp @ 6248 rpm and 15 ft-lbs @ 5659 rpm
useing gp 200 gearing, the power would be better with a more suitable exhaust.
