Hi All,
I don't know how to put links or videos on but if you check out DARLINGTON VESPACAR OWNERS (all upper case) you can see a couple of videos of my Apes first test run with its new Vespa 200 engine! Due to lots of horses/riders on the road I couldn't open it right up but I squeezed 40 mph in 3rd and got up to 45 before having to back up due the the horses (they really don't like my Ape!! lol).
The 200 engine is standard and I think it should be good for 55/60mph quite comfortably, and the plus point for me is that I wont be screaming the knacks off a little 50 engine so it should be able to maintain these speeds all day long.
Happy days!
Regards, Eric.

I'm glad you slowed down for the horses, I saw a rider thrown in Epping Forest after a noisy 2 stroke shot past it, not pleasant, although it does amaze me that horse riders still risk going out onto main roads, and we thought we were crazy!
