:( was that with the std weight flywheel though ? What sheared ?
They are heavy, heavier than a std indian gp.

Is yours a non indicator model ? Cant make them out on your avatar ?

Seeing as your looking to step onto the performance 'slippery slope' with a GT kit, I'd certainly fit a GP crank, then you'll need an Indian electronic kit or maybe BGM.....oh dear its starting to get expensive!!

It should have an Autisa barrel as standard with larger transfers so consider keeping it standard and you'll have a reliable and rare scooter.
No its going to be a cast iron barrel for the foreseable future ( ive got a TS and RB :) ) and the aim is to keep the motoplat ignition as its a good system, unfortunately it an li taper :( .... the idea is a mile munching plodder................but we all like to go, just a little bit faster lol

I thought the autisa barrel was the 125 models , albeit with the 200 block ?
No Auitisa supplied the 200 barrel as well with larger than standard transfers. I got one from Bedlam Scooters yonks ago and it went well for a standard barrel.
