Buggsy has moved in. Buggsy is a 100cc 2t Yamaha with an atitude. I'm too scared to tell him he's only a toy. 100cc scooters are supposed to putter around town and pull off the street when anything larger on two wheels goes by.:scooter:

This pocket rocket dragged me out of the house yesterday, threw the helmet on the ground and said "get on wimp' Next thing I know, I'm clinging on for dear life as Buggsy goes looking for a fight. Hitting the hills on the Kawhia road at 80kph this 93kg gorrilla ground the hills into dust. Even I was impressed. Buggsy wouldn't back off regardless how long the hills were.

Got to Kawhia and gave Buggs a drink. The little shit downed 1.9 litres of 91 in a single gulp. Still he had hauled my 95kg's over 72 kilometres with his throttle nearly wide open for a fair bit of the distance. At $2.50c a litre, that was all he was getting. I had an ice cream while Buggsy went looking for trouble with one of the locals . ( se pic).:mad::mad: Buggsy wanted to hit on a local Honda Today parked on the main street so I got him out of there before hell broke loose. Coming back was more of the same. He really impressed me with how well the little buggar went. :rockon:

Got back home and the sod drowned another 2 litres. A 145k's and 4 litres wasn't too bad. :drinknsin

Only saw one other bike on the whole run, a Harley, AND HE WAVED FIRST!!. Guess he reconized atitude. :apumpin:

Never ridden a scoot but I love practical, light & quick. In the search for RD 350 powered racing scoots from eons ago I found this.

Looks to be great fun & cheap.

cool! :clap: dont 100cc BBK's require machining of the engine case? so the piston can fit? Are you running a larger carb, or just upjetting?

edit: ah, thought you installed a larger bore/piston on a 50cc......nice scoot

Those BeeWee scooters are great fun. It was a toss up for me between one of them and the Cygnus. What a great summer this is. I'm really enjoying scooting round at the moment.

The same scooter is now a 50cc 4t. I'm happy if others think its a souped up 50.

Apparently you can get a 113cc piston kit for these. I thought about playing with the various mods but have decided that keeping it standard means a lot less headaches etc, with reliability my main aim.
