Re: Time for a twin cylinder prebug zuma.
Much better idea than the mxs, even tho I've always wanted one too. But a street motor is gonna be way more reliable and ridable. That's an italjet? Looks kinda like a minarelli, but a little wider haha. What model bike?

sweet looking project!
used to own an italjet malossi'd up formula50 years ago, was very fun but parts were a PITA so ended up selling. was always curious about their twin cyl set up. subscribed to your build, best of luck

Re: Time for a twin cylinder prebug zuma.
Im gonna be honest here and say that zumas honestly seem like the worst suzed bike to put a duel cyclinder motor on, wouldnt it just lift the front wheel up like no tommarow? Why not a longer bike?
I mean dont get me wrong zumas are nice looking and a lot of people do this and love it but if your gonna go through the work to build a motor like that why on the zuma?
Just wondering, I mean its like the spree thing I guess the big af motor on a twig makes sense I guess. Idk, sorry to clutter post like this.

Ya, screw it go for like 25 hp haha. Wheelie down the 1/8th mile.
The zuma is an uncomfortable bike to ride but I don't think it'll be unmanageable. There heavier than our honda scoots by a little and have a nice front end and brakes.

Ya the new ones are WAY uncomfortable, I'm 6'1" so very few 49cc scoots are a good fit for me. I way more than my aeros max carry weight haha. You get any farther on this one? The pre bugs are just way cool looking to me.

I had this thread confused, thought you were doing a bug-eye for a min there haha. All this medical weed's got me confused.
