    Lambretta Project

    Is anyone after a Lambretta project?

    I've got a full frame Indian GP that I'm never going to use. All GP apart from the Li headset and front mudguard.
    Stage five RS185 engine (I bought it rebuilt, and haven't used it or taken it to bits). Electronic ignition and a big Amal carb.
    Scootrs front disc.
    Pretty much all there. Just needs a few bits and pieces.
    It's only when you take the piss out of a partially shaved wookie with an overactive 'me' gene and stapled on piss flaps that it becomes a problem.

    I had thought of that. But the only reason to keep the frame would be to put my engine in, if my road bike got smashed up. Its just taking up space really, so should sell the whole thing.

    Could do with the money to fund the race bike build.. And I quite fancy a carbon frame for my push bike!!

    I have indeed, and it won't be the last, but the next one will be an S2 or an Li Special, 200cc+ and a sidecar

    **edit**

    Aha! I've just spotted the red engine casing in your avatar. You are MattBlack and I claim my $5!

    $5 for what?? I thought the panels might have been a dead giveaway..

    Figure of speech...don't remember seeing a pic of the scoot with the panels on though. When do we get to see it on the street?

    Sweet. R&R Powersports in Glenfield is the place to go to get it dyno'd. Locally the top lammy is 23.5hp, but that's a 225 TS1...should beat that eh?

    I'm not putting it on a dyno. RS Tuning's moto is DYNO BOLLOCKS.

    Its only a 185. I'd be happy with 18hp.
