I was just looking at the ex-government auctions today and they have about 80 posties going for sale and it got me thinking.

The design is exactly the same as the engines we are all running except they are honda and have speedos attached and stuff, so i think i might buy one and transplant the motor into my pitty as a project.

 

[lilaidstamx]

the speedos are`nt connected!!

 

[Le|Garage]

Nah, the posties have a diffrent bolt pattern to the chinese engines.. They won't bolt in, but they will easily, just have to fabricate a engine mount for the bottom..fairly easy

 

[stumbows]

Oh ok the engine mounts are different and yea your right shouldn't be too hard to rig something up.

What i meant but use the speedo was is that the bikes already have all the gear so i could transplant it i didn't mean that it was connected to the engine.

The speedo wouldnt work (accuratley) with the size wheels on your pitty.

I will tell you something about the CT90.....most of them are red.

Also there is a club that races them

 

[lilaidstamx]

if you want to use the speedo u need a cable thingy that has a spring in it.
they dont come with the bike(well mine didnt anyway).

the CT90 engine is ALOT longer than a pitty/50 engine, i had a 75 CT90 i think i still have the speedo and cable about somewhere
