I'm just embarking on converting the wife's recently purchased LUI 50C into a 75cc fire breathing monster
Anyway, I started another thread about a flywheel nut, which digressed somewhat and a fellow forum member suggested I redirect the conversion question to a new thread. I initially thought the conversion would be straightforward and I lifted the required parts below, off the Rimini Lambretta website. However, the flywheel nut topic threw up a few surprises, such as the standard 50cc crank could be different to a 75cc crank? so now I'm a tad confused on the parts required to accomplish said conversion.
In addition to the below parts, I was intending to include a Variatronic or Casatronic electronic ignition system and the 75cc big bore exhaust.
So, can anyone please enlighten me on the actual parts required? The scooter is currently stripped with all the bodywork at the painters. The engine is on the bench, waiting for me to order the bits
Any other advice on what to expect when stripping down or reassembling would be much appreciated
Engine:
Casa 75cc barrel kit (X3)
RLC close ratio gear cluster (RLC056)
3 plate clutch set-up (M131)
15T front sprocket (X29)
Iwis 76 link chain (M141bz)
Vega Lui Cometa 75cc airfilter box unit (B54)
15mm carb kit (X16)
Details:
The 1.5bhp engine is so slow the scooter could actually take root. The ‘Upgade Recipe’ is pretty much the same each time.
