Spectacular. I love streamlining, and this is an amazing example of what can be done. I'm smoothing out my 92 Subaru Legacy, already got 4 mpg extra, expect to get more. Not quite the excitement of Bonneville, but still a fun (and money-saving) hobby.
@masflow80 It would be really nice if the engines had a life of two times wider, here in Brazil are trying to stop them, but the rest of the world, small bikes are still made. I'm trying to bring them back, I want to succeed, because I am a lover of two-stroke engines.
Do you een hear what rpm's this is at ? it's called gear ratio in either final drive or gearbox that makes them able to get to 50mph (85km/h) in first gear.....
metrakit pro race cilinder, the powerband comes very high, the cilinder works better on scooters.

I'd like to read more about how you set up the engine. Was it custom made, or just specially tuned? How much BHP @ what RPM?

Why so few gears? I remember the 50 cc GP racing bikes in Europe had something like 12 gears?

@ihelk Turbo and 28mm carburettor makes a difference. And i think they use alcohol instead of gas?
