My old hairdryers

Dunno if I'll get slated to high heaven but anyway. Just been looking through some old pics an come across these. My old scooters

This one was named 'chubster', cos apparntly reminded people of chubby brown

Engine mods:

Malossi 172 kit
PM59 exhaust
Polini variator
Polini belt
Polini filter
Polini stiffer clutch springs







Italjet dragster

Engine mods:

Malossi 172 kit polished and ported
25mm carb
180 variator
Polini belt
Mlaossi gear up kit
Standard exhaust(best for torque)





The black one did 104mph top end!! They would both nail superbikes off the line to about 60. I know its hard to beleive, but tuned scooters are fast! Very fast!

Great always nice to see something a little different oh and nice bodywork  

Not for me, give me back my tuned R1, 164BHP at wheel and we'll see about the lights thingy  :mrgreen:  :mrgreen:

I'd change picture 3 if i were you before a mod deletes/blocks post and gets you a strike…
Naked ladies is not family friendly (although its a cool pic, i got a few like that)

you were a nutter when you showed me them half an hour ago, you're still a nutter now

Very nice although not my thing personally. Bit nippy in here now too.

Tian ops:

full respray









Thank

Tom

thanks but no thanks. ill stick to the grown ups toys. seen a few been sprinted to resonable success but wont touch the proper bikes. wheels are just to small.
give me lawsy r1 anyday (oh and my rf600. have told anyone i ride a bike on here yet :mrgreen: )

You've never seen PM tunings or PSN's drag scooters then Novo

They kill proper drag Hyabusas, I've got videos lol

not disbelieving that bud. but after 30 they don't stand a chance. used to watch them at elvington over a 1/8 they do ok but stick them over a 1/4 and they pail by comparision. sub 10 fireblade made them look like toys.
(pm set the record at 11.95 but not excatly a run of the mill scooter. 9.31 for class 8 1000cc race and 10.35 class 17 1000cc road legel) the 250 race is alot quicker that the scooter boys (and thats just the nsa)

not exactly what the silly little muppets ride round on though are they. theres one round here whos back tyre has been flat for the past 6 months he has no regard for other road users and beleives paths are there to be used as short cuts. these are the people that annoy me not the boys who sprint them(good people).

thought about entering a mini moto for this years sprint but can't be bothered with all the hassle and setting it up with parts that take a bit more work than for a scooter.

I find it hard to believe they would beat a superbike off the line, yes you have the twist and go advantage but as soon as your off the clutch on the superbike the scooter wouldn't stand a chance.

I remember reading an article about one of the 125cc scooters (can't remember which) that would beat a Ferrari off the line that would be some what embarrassing lol

they come fo the line quicker due to gearing (small wheel against big wheel)

Talking about mini moto's, I've had a lot of mini bikes

Z50r with Honda crf engine with 88 kit





And one I built up from upgraded bits. Five-0 frame with fox shock, marzocchi shiver forks, Xsport cr3 125 engine. Cost me about ?1600 to build, and thats with the frame and forks been 2nd hand! Too dear is mini-biking for wot they are. I built this in my bedroom

Done it plenty of times with gayboys in Subarus. Think there fast and gonna beat me easy. Wack that throttle back and I was gone, bye bye subaru muhaha

yep then blam scooby slams into the back of you when you run out of steam.

an aprillia rs125 which is unrestricted (most on the road are restricted) will waste any car off the line only to feel the draft as the ferreri flys past them just down the road

ford mundano would leave an f40 off the line for about 4 seconds. or just long enough to say "that can't be a real………" then comes the turbo and theres a little red dot in the distance.

had to try and explain this to a member on here a few months back who thought he would keep up with me even if i did the speed limit.
lets see
0-62 time on my bike is around the 3.4 second mark.
as a rough estimate we can half this for 0-30 and add a bit for reaction time  so 2 seconds
0-60 time for a 1.1 golf is in the range of 16 secs i think
again half and add a bit for reaction time so 9 seconds 0-30

this mean that before he even starts moving im 7 seconds infront on a 30 mile an hour road. or about 100m ahead of him about 4 times his stopping distance and thats on a 30 mile an hour road.

this is based on linear acceleration to exactly 30 mph so its not quite right but close enough for an estimate.
