| what
started out as a grey market import into the States
from Euro land as a Derbi GPR50 (which was actually
a factory OEM'd scoot as a 75cc with speedo in Kilometers),
will hopefully end up as a competitive ride for the
street (and occasional track day ride to compare against
the new GPR that will be built up with the MetraKit
Pro Race kit)...this 1998 is a lovely sounding street
ride right now with the following mods...
mods include:
1. MetraKit SP pipe
2. Del'Orto 21mm carb (non premix)
3. air filter
4. loads of parts (read as about 15 lbs) removed which
include:
- fat old hunking
OEM pipe
- worthless OEM carb
- rear passenger pegs
(replaced with slim aluminum piece attached
to the METRAket
pipe).
- oh shit passenger
grab bars under seat tray
- lower fairings cut
(lt and rt) for pipe (saved about 1mg har har)
- about one pound in
bolts including ones for the mis-aligned tank area
in rear
- undertank tray for
easy access to carb
more pics and images to come when complete... |
