Its got a kazuma falcon 110cc 3 forward reverse gearbox, first test ride it went like a ferret on steroids!!! the axle photo is essentially a mechanical diff lol, we wanted twin rear disk brakes but didnt want axle locked, bpoth wheels will spin and lock independantly! :)

too bad it's a 1303... since I'm a 1200 fan ;)

Anyways.. that's a cool project :thumbsup:
And I'd be happy to see more of it :D

Nice! How did you get something like this together? I mean the body especially has got to be from some "kiddie car", right?

More info please.

It was my brothers and mine first attempt at fibreglassing, fair to say it came out pretty well :)
apart from to mould for shell, we completely build it from scratch, taken over 2yrs so far though :)
I even bent the suspension arms with my bendy machine lol.
