What is the difference between the c2 and c3?

Cant help ya, but that there is sexxxy!

There is a reason that most of the 2 stroke scooters today use a minarelli style engine.

Tomos had 1 common engine until the 90s.

Puch had 2.

Minarelli had at least 5 I have heard of and had there thumb in a bunch of other motors. They were constantly refining and remaking their engines. From a business standpoint it was folly to keep changing designs and not making all the parts compatible, but from an R&D stand point keeping the same basic design for 30 years is foolish.

Minarelli just happened to have the best design and experienced designers in the mid-late eighties when Yamaha wanted to break into the scooter business and didn't want to try and compete with their tired shaft drive set up that even in those days was slow.

Cool engine for sure. Did those make it to the states at all?

damn im jealous i want one on my citybike ed you always have the coolest minarelli shit fer sure!

Hmm dean,

The crankshaft has to wooduff keys holding each side of the vario pulleys.

The engine came on this bike.

Harvey, They came it the variomatic with this engine.

Finding and getting the parts was the hardet thing ever. Many hours of research went into this build looking for high performance parts.

Anyone have a 49-50mm bolt spacing 24-28mm take laying around?

There is a pedal shaft .. :) so its all moped.

aftermarket contra spring

The z12 came on the bike. They make z13,14 for it, not much room for bigger sprockets.

Exhaust port

UTM connecting rod.

4 speed pedals :)

Other side before rebuild.

morini=minarelli ... not the same.
