    50hp... hmm... 130Nm torque from 1800 rpm though. With 2WD, sounds like
    a good green lane bike?

  2. 3 cylinder, 50bhp. Sounds awfully familiar.

  3. Pity you only get around one euro per quid at the moment. £17.5k
    is a bit steep.

    I think they might have their power and torque figures swapped, too,
    or at least they don't match with the units quoted.

    Yeh, I get most of my parts from Germany, because it was cheapest. Not
    now though. :(
    Why? My mums new car produces 240 Nm and 105 hp.. that's a 1461 cc
    diesel. So about half that from about half the cc would be reasonably
    realistic?

    Aye, sort of takes away the urge to consider it.

    Can't rev the fucker and drop the clutch for a wheelie?

    I don't see why it wouldn't wheelie. My scooter only needs the throttle
    to be opened quickly.

    I bet your scooter doesn't weight half a ton.

    I don't think that diesel bikes weighs 500kg somehow. To the back of the
    classroom and face the wall! :)
