    had it down a car park where we all stunt and suprisingly its awsome its still a 125 and it lifts on take off so wtf did tweak do to my engine :w00t: :w00t:
    only thing i hate is its to high so hopefully the sr shock will cure that

    well my sr shock came this mornin so i started stripping the peugeot shock and adaptor off
    the engine fell smashed the top for the carb....
    then the sr shock wouldnt sit on the engine so i set away with my file
    this is what i got now, well worth the hassle

    so looks pretty much standard ;)

    very little clearance now tho :(
    and my broken carb

    Coming along nicely!

    Prob lifts because of engine angle?

    Either way well done so far. Looking forward to seeing finished product. Glad its running finally?!

    as you can see due to dropping the engine the coil nearly touches the engine cover to rather than mes on moving the coil drilling more holes and shit im going to make a metal bracket to raise the coil an inch or two
    [​IMG]
    im still unsure about the clearance between the carb and oil tank
    is there away to stiffen the shock up abit ?
    and my new clutch bell was delivered this morning
    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]
