Thoughts on the disk brake option: what about a Crimaz setup, disk & master cylinder. Both bolt on with out modification, and the MC tucks nicely away under the headset-without needing a plate welded on; and with the disk kit there is no need for a full on fork swap.
I honestly offer this suggestion, because you've got a bit of a rare find there - a Blue Badge smallframe. So it would be a bit of a shame to make too many permanent mods. Now - I'm NOT shy of doing some cuttn n weldin n modding, just offering another option; that could be easier & less expensive. https://www.sip-scootershop.com/en/product/brake-master-cylinder-crimaz-mounting-at-handlebar-lower-part-20_56375600 https://www.sip-scootershop.com/en/product/disc-brake-crimaz-20-rdp-front_30023000 |

I'm totally down for that plan, GL. I was already looking at the Crimaz disc on SIP, but somehow missed the master cylinder. That's exactly what I want to do, I just didn't think it was an option.
In the meantime, I improvised a gas tank and rode it briefly around my 'hood. I look pretty ridiculous on it, but that's part of the fun in a way.

Lookin' GOOD!!!
Just a suggestion, if you want to save money on the disc brake and spend it on other parts. You're damn good with fabrication so I don't think you can't do it. His older design used a Piaggio Typhoon master cylinder which is way cheaper...

okay...it's time to get this show on the road.
I've been not so much putting this off as just tired & busing. I've been thinking I wanted to build the motor with an egig 170 for the top end, but it seems like there's not a single one available anywhere on the planet right now and they're "In arrival" it SIP for this past May, so I'm losing faith. So I'm soliciting input from the crowd on a next-in-line top end option. I want to a direct intake with reeds, and this is going to be a pretty hot build. I'm not talking BFA288 hot, but I'm looking at options like a FALC 153 or M1L60 top end and 54mm full circle crank. I might even spoil myself with a pipedesign exhaust to really blow things up. The only real restrictionion I'm putting on myself is that I want to re-use the existing cases rather than buy new ones. Obviously, I'll be upgrading the clutch, but what else am I missing that I might need to know? I know someone listed off the factory tools I should go ahead and order to get the show started. I'll dig that up shortly unless someone is feeling charitable and wants to list them here. ![]() Last edited by chandlerman on Sat, 06 Aug 2022 12:40:10 +0000; edited 1 time |

If you could go with rotary or case reeds, I'd very much like to see a VMC ET7 in action. It looks like a pretty sweet cylinder from performance-for-dollar angle.

SoCalGuy wrote: Is it just shaving off the inside of the crankcase to fit a longer crank? Is that required for a 54mm crank in any case? Or does it just require a crank with a longer rod? I had wanted to start with the egig both for the cost (so I can spend it on other parts, like a front disc and suspension) and its alleged reliability, but I'm sick of waiting, so I'm going all in instead. Looking at the various options, one thing that I'm still unclear on is what' are the various case modifications that need to be made at what levels of tuning. Obviously, at the high end it's all custom/purpose-built and -matched cases for the cylinder, or a TON of machining. I'm not looking to take it that far, though any machining I could make jigs for and do myself, I'm totally down for. These are the sorts of questions I'm wrestling with right now. And let's not even get started on exhausts yet... |

I have BGM 54/105 crank and I had my cases machined out to 89mm diameter.
![]() 60mm Parmakit has a thick spacer under it so I got away with burring the crank mouth wider few mm deep to accomodate the cylinder skirt. Of course you have to get rid of the stock sealing surface to open up the transfers properly. ![]() |

It begins...I just fired off two very expensive orders, one to SIP and the other to ScooterCenter to get all the key parts for this build. I'm sure there will be at least another order or two, but nothing I can't get from a domestic supplier.
One upside is that the Euro is weak against the dollar right now, but it was still an eye watering amount of spend for a motor. Quattrini M1L60S 144cc cylinder M3-150S exhaust (have to use a matching exhaust) Mazzi Full circle 54mm crank, 105mm conn rod egig one-finger clutch Bearings, seals, gaskets, o-rings cruciform, rubber bits, etc. Tools Clauss mounts So that should all show up in the next week or so, assuming it doesn't decide to do some summer vacation backpacking through the UPS terminals of the former East Germany. Then, teardown can begin and I can learn how much I can screw up a smallie motor. ![]() Still need to order a carb and ignition, not to mention tires and wheels. I assume I'll wind up with another DC Vape Variable, but I pulled up short on that for the time being. I also need to figure out the front disc sooner than later. And I'm kind've feeling like I might just start out running this thing as a rat rod with its exterior latex paint job and trailer brake light. I'm pretty sure I'm going to need to cut the frame a little to fit the motor, as well as welding on the headset for the master cylinder plate. And knowing me, once I'm at that point, I'm not going to want to wait two more months to get the paint & bodywork knocked out. Whatever I do, though, I'll be doing it *fast*!

Sounds good!
Have you already welded the area on the cases around transfer ports? |
