Charlie edmonds tuned Lambretta Targa TWIN cylinder engine featuring TWO mugello 186cc cylinders and a two into one exhaust. Just listen to it!!

[Marnix_Vespito]

Sound very nice, looks like fun. I read something about his twin on the GSF, They sead his twin engine has 25 or so HP and does 100mph ?

how is your RB225?

ciao

[belfastjohn]

My RB was fantastic until the exhaust failed. Lots of power from around 100kpu upwards, i just need a more reliable exhaust system and some sunshine to get it back on the road.

I just love that this twin was almost a production scooter in the early 70's. GOD I WANT ONE!!!!!!

[uwannaknowy]

Hi John, me thinks it strange it does't have two exhausts, even the formula 125 gilera autoscoot has two exhausts, somethings wrong here but wat,

that scoot not only sounds nice but for me its no twin , i could be wrong but i fail to see it ,

The same question is being asked on other forums. Cam Lambretta are saying that if the exhaust timings are lower than 180 degrees then you can get away with one exhaust, most jet ski's, snowmobiles etc do this.

But it is a Twin, And it wouldn't be difficult to fit two pipes to it would it?

[geertvespa]

indeed 2 pipes would be possible, it would be even nicer if they could do it underneath like the original exhaust so the outside looks of the scooter seem original

[uwannaknowy]

Oh that's another story, but this means it is stil possible to put two exhausts and even tune it further timingwise ; damned i want one to!

When are they coming on the market?

Up for a bank-job-sponser-robbery probably needed when you hear the price

It's no problem to fit a single exhaust system to a twin 2 stroke.

As long as both the cilinders ignite on the same time (pistons move together) and the volume of the exhaust system is large enough: instead of 2 separate pipes made to fit 2 lets say 186cc cilinders you will need a pipe wich is made for a 372cc single cilinder engine with the same timings.

Diameters are doubled and the 2 exhaustflanges come together in the expantionchamber, this particular place is very critical.

The huge downside to such a large chamber is its size, in snowscooters etc there is room to spare but on race bikes and scooters it's very very dificult to fit such a system.

Personally, The sound is awesome but I would like it more with 2 nice and shiny exhausts screaming loud and proud on the left side of that bretta.

Oh yeah, let's put more moving parts in a Lambretta engine!

What would it sound if TWO mugello's would block during topspeed?

Price is 8.000 euros.

Let me write that in full, eight thousand euros.

What can you buy today with eight tousand euro? Come on, let's hear it.

Two Devtour exhausts would fit nicely though.

[mr160]

8000 is de prijs die in dat oude artikel genoemd werd toch? Dat lijkt me niet echt recent?

[belfastjohn]

There are people trying to sell GS160's for close to that price, its cheaper than a BMW or a Yamaha R1. I think i would rather have a Lambretta twin before all of those. I just don't have 8000 euros to spare. :-(

If you sell the RB, a couple of lambrettas, a Vespa Malossi 221 and the Saab and add an end of year bonus and you might be getting pretty close...

[belfastjohn]

The malossi 221 is going back to amsterdam soon to have a new design of pipe fitted... ...its at 24.5pk now, lets see what its got next year.

[Christiaan]

The sound is nothing compared to a Rossa 350, that has two exhauts and the sound is a lot more sexy!

But the idea of a twin cilinder "off the shelf" could be a good alternative for my GP!

[belfastjohn]

Not a twin?

[Marnix_Vespito]

That loooooooks damn nice.

But what about 2 race rapido 250 cilinders in a twin to make a agressive low rpm animal??

Charlie Edmonds RD350 lambretta is also a nie piece of work.

ciao

[belfastjohn]

I haven't seen his RD350 lammy? whats it like?

Do you have a link for some pictures of the Charlie Edmonds machine?

Thanks,K.

[belfastjohn]

these videos were obviously made in belgium, and this looks like the fastest scooter i've ever seen on the highway.

Groetjes, nero.

[EriX]

Schitterende filmkes! Die gaat inderdaad goed vooruit. Benieuwd wie hier de eerste (eigenlijk tweede hé) gaat zijn om ook met zoiets af te komen?

Amaai Nero, ik heb nog nooit zoveel schrijffouten gezien in een Engelse tekst, maar zolang we elkaar maar begrijpen hé. ;-)

[josse]

I would shit myself i.s.o. wet myself.

[papa van ian rush]

[Progetto 300]
