Ummm....lessee...370cc Bultaco motor in some lightwieght frame. Likely would be in the modified class. Best I can tell there are some serious folks getting serious speed.

I think the classification are something like: "M/G-400/2" ="MODIFIED GAS 400CC 2 STROKE"

"F" STANDS FOR FUELLIE

So the records for 400cc modified 2 strokes are between 131 and 151 mph

someone tells me when and where and ill show up engine AND transmission in hand

You DO have some Built-ta-Go's

Wasn't the Alpina a trials bike? Or enduro? I noticed what appeared to be some modified trials bikes in the ECTA website photos.

You know if we could find some small lightweight chassis with a blown engine...say an old honda/yamaha/Kagasaki 125 enduro bike and wedge that Bull in there, strip the bike, clip ons, RR rubber you might suprise some folks.

exactly they took the famous sherpa and enlarged the tank, seat , changed the engine slightly etc for longer rides and distances... mine and my brothers are 350cc and my father owns a 175 lobito which was their motocrosser before the pursang when the races where scrambles with only like 1 or 2 jumps. I'm looking for used bul's constantly.

the bigger the more fun....it will look like a 125 but it will go like a 370.......

[porsche4life]

I just want to get comfortable at 100 on a bike before I find 150 on a bike...

Dunno...but I ran across an article in some PCA regional newsletter where a guy wit a 2.2 RR 911T(?) ran 125 and the record for his class was 128. I'll see if I can find it and post a link.

Speaking of 911s at Maxton...found this

I have a 1930 Rudge Whitworth Grand Prix Ulster that had a factory guarantee of 100 MPH. Apologies on the pic, but I took it today. I'm hoping to do a ring job on it over the holidays.

[porsche4life]

True Hugh... But will it find that 100 in 1mile?
