    Pattern parts so they are a pile of wank anyway.

    Black = Pattern

    Creamish = Piaggio

    also gota ask, you got better pics of your blue and silver tiger runner?
    a bike like htat was stolen from mansfield,stapleford area about 2 3 years ago, could be a long shot but you never know do you, looks very simular with the seat and malossi shock?? you never know with thives there days could have kept it hidden years

    wiht that registration chances are its an OLD series 1 engine meaning strange crank.. look after it, its lots of work fitting a normal crank into one of these engines (waste of time basicly)

    ahh well if it is would the crank be alright with a 172 kit?
    i checked the bore and the piston has dents in the top and is pretty fucked

    ive got another 125 barrel and head but no piston, might just buy one brand new :unsure:

    ye you can run them fine wiht a 172.. they tend to snap the variator shaft off at around 20,000 kilometers tho. non replacable wihtout serious mod work to the case, so asses the crank/mialage of the bike befor you go throwing too many parts at it. i have one myself that luckily has only 3000 stock miles on it. but ye, ticking time bomb of irriplacableness.
