New Installments
Dellorto 16mm SHA carb
Techno BOSS pipe (made a bracket to fit clean)
(and the best upgrade of all)- a new REGISTRATION STICKER!
The ped is running excellent. I'd say the best, most reliable setup I've had on it yet. The 19mm carb and homoet 6p I took off will be a great fit for the Pinto build, and I'll post pics of that soon, as it's nearing completion. The next step for the magnum is to paint the tank, wheels, and add some custom decals. Can't wait! I've built this bike for longer distance rides and it's finally at a point I feel comfortable riding over 100 miles on it again. Haven't had a chance to use a gps yet and my speedo tops out at 40mph but my best estimates are that it top ends around 47-50mph. With a little more tuning I think I can get a little more once everything is broken in.
nice gti

ReplyDeleteIf you have any junk e50 lower ends lying around let me know.
ReplyDeleteHahaha I think John may have posted under Adelia's email by accident!
ReplyDeleteHuman Beans: Yeah a lot of us are VW crazy too (including myself). Jake's GTI is sweet.
ReplyDeleteReally, for a second I thought maybe Adelia was getting the moped itch.
