Wow,94HP :shock: I wonder how much it cost to build?
It's a great looking bike,unlike many new bike's.
I'd love a ride on it but I'd be wary of it biting...

You can get 90bhp out of them, it'll have an Athena big bore and a stroker crank, I'd worry about the gearbox and clutch more than the crank.

I also don't see the point of big power LCs, they're are plenty of much better 90bhp bikes.

Like that very much, lots of work gone into it engine and gearbox. Different that it's been wrapped not painted.
