    So the little Cagiva has developed some minor engine issues. Suspect crank seals may be going bad. Bike won't idle now and if left to idle manually struggles to rev cleanly. I have a spare bottom end I got earlier in the year with the top barrel to put on it and I will endeavour to build that as a drop on replacement. For the moment however it will just have to make do...

    That said, been after one of these all year and yesterday TYGA Performance delivered on their promise

    Again an immediate difference in performance, pick up in the midrange is excellent and felt a tad stronger up top to boot...

    What you have to appreciate about these bikes is that they were already rapid and the gains here are going to be minimal. I like Zeeltronic as a brand and like what they make. Pleased to add another one to my collection.

      Looks like a fun little upgrade! Even better pickup in midrange that would make these little bikes even better

        Just wondering if you would be willing to knock up another set of the paddock stand spacers for some ££? I have made something similar on AutoCAD but those are 3D printed with carbon fibre reinforced PETG, but metal would be ideal for peace of mind!!

          @ZKJE101 Hi bud,

          Not sure if you're still interested in these? Access to my lathe has been removed for the moment, so I've taken one off of my Cagiva and gave it to an engineering firm to knock up a set for you if you would like them?

          Unfortunately, these are not CNC'd and he said it'll take 2 hours to make. Like mine, it'll be turned by hand. I'm having another set made for myself and asked to make a set for you as well.

          If you're interested let me know, engineering firms are shut for the holidays now, so won't see anything until next year.

          Cheers,

          Calum

            Hello mate. Sorry for the radio silence, my project has been on pause the last few months due to other commitments. I’m defo still open to paying for a set of bobbin spacers if you are still up for it?

              @ZKJE101 Sorry bud, a move was necessitated and access to the lathe has gone 😞

              I can send you the CAD files and you can get someone to knock them up for you if that helps?

              I use a chap called Quantum Solutions who seem to fit the bill nicely.

              Hell, they're not structural I could just 3D print you up a set if it helps.

                @Calum no worries mate. I would take a cad file if you wouldn’t mind sharing 🙂 will likely send them off to a local machinist. I have a 3d printer as well so could try the cad file on there!
