it would pull like a train until you go over a tree stump then you will say godbye to the chamber.

She will never be pretty but hoping she will be a fun ride.

I love it, i could see it now with the engine in a modded form putting out a smooth broad powerband with at least 70 HP.
How sweet it would look from the back with a chamber on each side and the upswept ends on each side.
Two strokes, its just that simple.

Interesting to see as I have a mind to try a GT500 based Flat Tracker project. I was hoping to have dual exhausts on the RH side (somehow) but had not considered a 2-1 type. I was intending to use the standard frame (modified) but may be an ex-off road frame would fit the bill.

Cheers Zunspec
