      The guy in the wookie costume isn’t me. He goes by “Responsible Jon”. It was pretty funny to watch him ride around in that during a rally.

      I got the side covers painted and put on. I had to wait for a long time to get the screws I needed.

      Anyone know where I can get the “Bravo” logos?

        My plan is to powdercoat the springs black. I just haven’t gotten around to disassembling them.

        The bike definitely isn’t as fast as I would like it to be. 61 km/hr is where I have GPS’d it so far. It just seems like the engine could rev higher, but it won’t. I’m up for any tuning suggestions if you guys have them.

        My Puch smokes this thing, but then again it has a 20mm carb vs. the 13mm on the Bravo.

        The hardtail made it too rough of a ride. Every crack in the road felt like it would shutter through the frame. I enjoy riding it much more now. I’m glad I was able to at least find shocks that were short enough…they allowed me to keep the height where I wanted it.

          I got some sidecovers for it recently, which I have since painted black. I’m waiting on the mounting screws to show up, but they should be here this weekend. You guys know where I can get the Bravo logos for them?

          I also took a quick video of it last weekend. It’s not the best quality though. I need to get a camera mount or learn to take turns one handed. 😉

            Yes, I know I have to make a login. My translation skills aren’t that bad. :lol I think the site may be having some issues.

                I upgraded my exhaust to the Polini Top One. I also bought a Malossi variator. I haven’t tested the speed yet, but I hope to soon.

                  Thanks for the translation. I updated my profile.

                  Polini Top One – I found someone that has it here. It’s $170 + shipping or 109 euros.
                  Proma Circuit – Nope.
                  Malossi too bad – never heard of it. I’ll see what I can find.

                    Thanks for the compliments everyone. 😀

                    The engine has 65cc Polini that has been matched to the case. I didn’t drill out the intake though, and I now know that I should have. It has a 13.13 dellorto carb and malossi air filter. I plan to buy the malossi variator soon, but I think that is all I will really spend on this build for a while.

                    I know the Polini pipe I have is a “piece of shit”, but I haven’t found another pipe that I am super happy with. I would love the Proma Cirucit. Anybody have one they want to sell me?! 😉 I know they don’t make them anymore, but I’m sure they are out there. If not, what other suggestions do you have? I’d like to have a good mid-high range pipe.

                      I’ve been meaning to stop by the english section to say hello.
