Scooterotica

After ten years riding a TS1 Lambretta I bought the T5 in 2005 on ebay.
The previous owner stored it in a shed for years so I changed nearly everything, excepting the painted parts

Frame:
Bitubo Shocks
Semi-Hydraulic Front Disc Brake
Analogue Speedo

Engine:
ported 172 Malossi kit,
MMW CNC designed Head,
reworked crank,
standart carb (ovalized) - Main jet: 125, BE3, NGK B9 Plug
SIP Performance Exhaust
21 tooth MMW CNC designed 16 spring clutch
It does 16BHP on the dyno, which is acceptable for rotary drive and top speed is about 125 km/h

Next weeks the crank will be changed against a reworked crank (188° inlet) with 54 mm stroke. Capacity will be 180 cm³ than.
Carb will be changed to a Keihin PWK 28 on a Polini manifold with 15mm spacer and a Vespatronic ignition will be fitted.

It´s reliable so far and road legal but sometimes I miss me Lambretta 14 l fuel tank

Love it mate. :bouncing:
Can't beat the looks of a Mk1 T5

Two weeks (hopefully) before finishing the engine.

Malossi, port/outlet timings 130°/190°
Bullet T5 exhaust (waiting for the parcel) http://pipedesign.de/engine/index.php?o ... Itemid=227
54 mm stroke crankshaft, reworked for better gas flow (rotary drive)
Polini inlet manifold + 20mm spacer
28 mm Keihin PWK Carb
MMW CNC milled 16 spring clutch (21/65 primary)
MMW CNC milled head
Vespatronic ignition



I hope it will does 22-25 BHP

Yep i still love it

I changed some parts, first run is planned for tommorow

- new inlet manifold by mrp-racing (http://www.mrp-racing.de). Best manifold for rotary drive i think.
- Pipedesign bullet T5 exhaust (http://www.pipedesign.de)
- Barrel ported to 194°/131°, Exhaust port on 68%. Squish 1,2 mm.






Dyno results next days

I got the scooter on the road this week but unfortunately the housing for the clutch side bearing got f*cked and the crank slided on the bearing at the ignition side
First impression before it was get back to garage: analogue Rev counter in third gear (21/65 clutch) goes out of clock, 75 mph in third gear .
I wonder whats possible in fourth gear.
Engine cases are now being repaired, next news in two weeks.
