After a modern scooter engine/ropey scooter

[Down&Out]

Gunna put this out there, dont need it immediately but im just gunna see what availability is like.

After a scooter engine. Preferably a 125 but if a tuned 50 is available that'd work too. If wiring is available that'd be good too. Two or four stroke is fine. 10" wheels if at all possible.

I'd also go for a ropey crash damaged scooter if the engine is alright, that'd allow me to use the loom too.

Needs to be a known runner, proper make if possible, rather than chinese.

Up to 100 quid sounds like the sort of money i'd spent, dependant on what it is, of course.

What you got?

Going to attempt to stick a modern engine in an engine-less honda melody i have in my possession.

Might as well, while i have the opportunity

In case anyone worries, i'll probably uprate the brakes at the same time, i know full well what they're like!

I have a Honda sky engine, its 50cc but pulls really well. If you see my mobilty scooter thread on retro rides you can see it, all complete, good runner

Yeah ive seen that, not for me im afraid, ive still got the original melody engine and theyre basically the same thing, not quick enough for what im after im afraid!

Thankyou for the offer though, and good luck with your sale.

Fair enough. Although I'm pretty sure the modern engines are a lot quicker, also once de restricted should see a good speed. The melody I rode wasn't anything compared to this Honda sky.
