Now I'm rebuilding one

[Drew]

Or just get it going first and don't be an ivan

It's all mounted up standard, will put chambers on it and the run it with two carbs first outing prolly.

There are however more motors for it on the way

[Drew]

Chucked some pipes on it today, not measured proper or nothing. Just a couple cones off the standard headers, bit of big straight, reverse of the cones and some cans.

Just wanna get it fired up for now. Hear me some pukka pukka.

Is this a protoype bucket or CRT bucket? Don't wanna break the engine limit rule!

Doubt anyone has married the motor and frame combo that I am, so it's a prototype. Will be legit though, on the off chance that I go fast enough to make people question it.

Speaking of which, don't forget that box of Heineken you are going to buy me when I you. (On the track of course)


Allowance for some development time must be made of course.

Sad but true. I remember when the MVX was new and sort of cool. A buddy from school saved all his paper boy money and sold his dirt bike to buy one. Oh the pain he when through. It just died in so many ways so often it might have put him of bikes for life.

Prototype for sure.

Sounds like it should be a winna...

That's not the correct sarcasm emoticon.

I have someone who knows what they are doing to help with proper pipes, I'm just fuckin around at teh moment for it's own sake.

MMMkay, since it seems to be the way of the bucketeer, I'm gonna lay out some ideas that I'll likely never get round to doing. I'll prolly get the thing going as it sits and ride it till it dies then sell it for scrap.

I'm actually a bit spoilt for choice at the mo, for a good base to make something stupidly fast. The GT is a twin which with a good crank and allowed to rev it could be made to decimate all, but why not take that a step further? Why not graft a couple of water cooled 50cc slugs and barrels on it, and do away with the carb restrictions at the same time?

Once that weapon is a runner, I could slot it into my RGV frame to gain brakes and rigidity at the same time!

I really can see why there are some quite expensive buckets around, but the limiting factor for me is cash, so I'll stick with my current $30 bike for now.

Oh wait, I bought a chain the other day. FUCK! Thing nearly owes me a hundy already!

[Drew]

Serious question time. If I can prove that a 2 stroke twin can run fine with a single 24mm carb, would anyone give a fuck if I just put two on my bike?

There is really no difference, and I spoke to a very clever dude today who thinks the idea I have to negate the possible pulse timing issue is sound, and in practice today in many vehicles.

Which is exactly what Phil Bird (?) did with his. Crazyman has it now & is on the GPR build in his new frame so should see the light of day this year. Was made back in the day & used MB50 barrels water cooled. Seemed to go ok but not campained for long. 5 speed is a restriction, but there you go.

Sorry I don't follow? Put two 24mm carbs on? why would that be ok? or two 17s? I'm confused. I'm sure it will run great with a 24.

Two 24's on it. Easier than building a manifold. Doesn't really matter, I need to hack the barrels up no matter what I do.

Just fit some X7 barrells, if you gunna cheat go big, the stock carbs are too big, if you cant even try to follow the rules , why bother turning up

No difference apart from the fact it's FUCKING ILLEGAL as a bucket

Turn up down here with it and I'll beat you with a fucking big stick and then set Jo on you
