Thought i'd do the introductions first just out of courtesey I've ended up working on several peds....for my sins My lads 16 and we bought him a speedfight 2 for his birthday as a first bike. Very tidy but not what he wanted so kept it a while and then sold it on. He's now running a Piaggio Zip SP 2004, with polini 70kit, malossi reeds and intake, doppler clutch and Malossi variator and 21mm Malossi carb. We paid £250 for it as a battered none runner and then rebuilt it from there. Total engine strip & rebuild (mains had gone) and then repainted all the bodywork. The MOT ran out last Monday so now we've got to sort it again. Needs the head bearings sorting and a new stator coz its been replaced with one from a DNA thats not quite right I've just bought another 2004 SP 50 for £70 that was stolen & recovered. This is gunna get used as spares for the first one and to replace the none standard SP panels on the 70 Thats about where we're at at the moment. Just need to weld up the TT exhaust for the MOT and then he's after a ZX?? BTW..The name Stig....its coz I can't pass a skip without having a look in
nice zip mate! im from nottingham giz a shout if ur up for a ride sometime EDIT: dont go for the zx dude. take a look at this http://www.scootershack.co.uk/viewtopic.php?t=12811
welcome you really have transformed that zip looks amazing now unk: and i seen that zip on ebay :rofl: if he has a polini 70cc kit have a little look around the forum and in the guides their is a few barrel and pipe guides get something on their that compliments the borekit
ta for the comments. Unfortunately he's dopped the ped since it was painted AND flipped it whilst on the back wheel PMSL SO...... the panels are off again and currently in primer waiting a flat back and paint again. This time when its sorted, I'm gunna fit the Polini racing decals that we didn't get a chance to sort last time Anyone got a cheap glovebox for sale?
"BTW..The name Stig....it's because I can't pass a skip without having a look in" Think that will go over a few young heads
Thanks, hopefully this time I'll get it finished with decals and all. I've JUST finished the blue sections agin and they're witing for the clearcoat as for the white...another story! had them in primer ready for another caot when I ran out. So fetched a litre of filler high build primer,....which conveniently reacted :wtf: :wtf: so its a full rub back and start again :wallbash: :wallbash: :wallbash:
