A100 or alternates?

[Paul in NZ]

I have an odd hankering to build a little 2 stroke café racer...

Google Itom for the sort of thing...

Or looking like the old 50cc GP bikes...

An A100 with the long tank could be ideal but the 4 speed box is a bit pedestrian really and they go for silly money... I do want to actually ride this thing on the street so no old MX bikes... What else would be affordable and common enough so parts can be obtained...

any ideas?

More Italian than Japanese looking like an ITOMAhhh....one of these. Not too dissimilar to my project.

...my AC50 with an A100 motor in it was a simple and satisfying little project...

It will take me ages to find the photo.


I have posted these on the ESE thread i thought i had here to but no actually there is a shit load i have not posted here.


This is one of the most exquisite bikes ever made ever made. er....i don't like Suzukis either. Note the Aluminium Frame

This vid of another thread is also well worth a watch to.

A Stinger or Wolf would be a good start

Try finding a cheap one of those these days. I would love one though.
