Full engine spec is off the shelf 'standard ' early imola 185 kit with 'reaper' reworked gp125 centre squish head, standard reeds, sito ancillotti, phbh 28, Af crank, sil heavy flywheel , gp200 gearbox and sprockets with a readspeed 5 plate clutch in the orig 125 casing, surprisingly torquey for what is a revvy baby ts1, which I guess is down to the exhaust- revs out well to!

Cheers for comments... (Apart from Adam )
Scooter Paul- yeah when it was in bits i had the option of converting it to sx/tv/special but I choose not to because you don't see people using li125 s3s for projects really (expect 'Jimmy' replicas!) , makes a bit of a change ...
