Hi Here are photos of my 1975 Vespa P-200 (217cc) I did the full restoration of this bike and built the motor with the help of English Tooth Racing. This bike is putting out 30hp at the wheel with the nitrous and is a blast to ride. We are in the process of building a 40+hp motor for this bike.

Another GPL Racing special.

OK the picture clears up a bit! I copied this straight from the ADV rider post.  I didn't realize that it was a GPL Racing bike who in the 2 stroke world needs little introduction.

I built it just before moving to Canada, it was just a track bike for me but could have been raced. My racing days so the wife thinks are over lol, but would like to get back into a classic class at some point. 

The running gear was swapped over from a 3xv conversion I did some years ago, I never got that bike to stop quick enough because the weight of the engine was to far forward. But the engine could be mounted some 6" further back in the 4DL chassis. The other reason was to fit the new +4mm stroke engine I was building at the time. There had always been over the years a load of BS on the tinternet when building a +4mm stroke YPVS. 

So I did a build on line with all the port specs and how to to get a reliable set up which gives not to bad power. The goal was to build it as easy as possible and keep peak power below 10k. This is a package I offer and is doing very well in some of the Canadian race series. I designed two pipes for this set up, one is a race pipe which peaks at 10500 and with a proper retarding ignition can rev to 11k, peak power was 73WRhp before ignition changes but then went on to around 77WRhp, the other pipe is a road pipe and peaks @ 9750 with just over 40ft.

I build a lot of road/race bikes, which in truth many people can do. But the advantage I have is I design and build pipes, so can build a set of pipes to fit any bike. I'll stick a pic of the 3xv up

I love this bike..

I followed the build thread for this bike for quite a while over on the 2 Stroke World Forum and today I got an e-mail from Ben Alameda with these fantastic pics! I'm a huge fan Ben! Thanks Much! He writes in:
Hey there, Love the blog I always follow up on it every week. Here are some pics of my custom 1973 rd350, I hand made all the aluminum body work and fenders from scratch. I also designed and built the pipes myself from stainless. The front wheel is a highly modified motoguzzi eldorado hub which was machined heavily, I added airscoops to both the front and rear drums. I also reinforced the frame with gussets. -Ben Alameda
What a beauty. I've tried banging out a few panels over the years and this sort of skill is almost god given. I don't often get envious but this is one of those times. Just superb!

Totally amazing RZ

Look closely.  That's NOT an anniversary R1.





Beautifil NOS injected H2

Holy Shit!  Outside the fact that it's already a stunning bike visually I can't imagine riding this on the street without wheelie bars. Just fantastic!  Congrats to 10 sec H2.  Found this over on this thread:  http://kawi2strokes.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=1496
