Hi Guy's.

 

Hi Brian.

 

You don't need to lengthen the swinging arm then, check the wheelbase measurements, and if you get 52 1/2"  you got the old perfect wheelbase.

 

And we know how much power these little engines turn out, more than a Bantam, and more than a BSA C15.

 

Should be fun  I need a Video. 

 

Regards Charlie.

Not quite 52 1/2" its 53"  .I used an early Suzuki TS swing arm that was on the 

original project(I made 2 inserts for the frame and new nylon bushes for the swing arm)

 cheers the noo Brian

About time you came to one of our trials Brian.

I don't mind swapping you for the Scorpa if you want it tested?

Any videos of it ?

be great to see n hear it in action.

Sorry no video of the wee bike for now,but it works.First event with my latest

creation and everything went well.Looped it on the first section and thought this

was the start of it,then another 5 on a hillclimb (which I laid out  ),then a 

couple of 3's,then a few cleans.Don't know what my score was but I really don't

care as the wee bike performed well and is a huge improvement over the original

8x4.

cheers the noo Brian
