I love it when a plan comes together. Daxideofthemoon starts getting serious(ly ridiculous).
Big block on small wheels,
190cc and ~20hp in a chassis that was designed for 5hp about half a century ago.
Tin will be beefed up in motor mount/swingarm area, swingarm +12 should keep front wheel down (mostly)
Next on the list : correct swingarm bearing distancing / alignment, electrics, new intake for 28mm Dell´Orto,
halfway decent exhaust which will reduce power from 23 to 20 but hopefuly keeps cops away.
4piston caliper and braided line, too, "Gofast Bikes need Stopfast brakes", to quote an old slogan.
On the long list : raked steering bearing cups and raked triple trees for kicking out front wheel
and, if possible, more castor for more stable ride.

Spotted this novelty today
Interesting bike Edited by SystemParanoia on Monday 9th January 13:47
more importantly is that proper secure motorcycle/scooter parking? Or is that in a cycle spot? In London if they installed this the wardens/attendants would still issue you a ticket for parking on the pavement- bylaws in london prevent any vehicle doing this.

Yes, that is more important. more importantly is that proper secure motorcycle/scooter parking? Or is that in a cycle spot? In London if they installed this the wardens/attendants would still issue you a ticket for parking on the pavement- bylaws in london prevent any vehicle doing this.
