Parts are all here (I think) So it can commence asap I am waiting on the cylinder which comes back from porting from joe out of CO I was waiting on the following: Waterpump Belt Clutch Bell. Now this is a curious one. From some of my friends that are/were involved in the sprint scene in EU, this is apparently by far the best clutch bell. The material feels really neat, way grippier than an older Wing Bell from Malossi. I am excited to try it out. It has quite some weight to it too. very well balanced. I am combining this with the Artek K2 adjustable clutch, really love the idea behind it and seems to be the secret insider clutch from all the guys at the track. i think it will be nice so we can set it to be nice and ride able on the street.

That looks like the Top Performance water pump. Where did you get it? I've had one on order from scootertuning.ca since November and they still have no word on when it may be available again last I heard.

I think theres still some shops here in Holland which have em on stock or somewhere back on a dusty shelf. Lemme know if your current order isnt working out, ill do a search.

I still see them in an LC conversion kit like you have in stock some places, but the pump alone is out of stock pretty much everywhere. I did contact SSS today and they have 1 in stock. It's $99 plus shipping. The one I have ordered ended up at about $65 with free shipping because of the sale. Not sure I want it bad enough to pay over $100. I can get a HOCA for $70, and prob catch it 10% off sooner or later. I just don't like the chrome and I did read some good reviews of the TP. www.sip-scootershop.com/en/products/conversion+cylinder+top_tp9911210

EDIT:
TP/DR are basically Minarelli. What you see there is a stock Minarelli water pump if i remember everything correctly.
(Also so stoked to have a "real" Mina engine :DDDD )

So it seems the pair of Alu. radiators we got are very awkward to fit.
I am trying to maybe go a little smaller.
Anyone want to trade kick ass new REFORGED 250 Radiators for something smaller? Show me what you have
