Re: Gauge Page :-)



Ah, yes. That gauge page makes me want to go "kick it uppa notch"
in the Coupe, although this is a manuever which, in the past, has
only netted me 110mph indicated- small 928 potatoes indeed! I do
have one picture that I wish had the speedometer more visible- 75
indicated as I changed up to 4th- nothing special, yes, but that
would indeed be a Vespa P200E in front of me- and I'm
*not* catchin' up! Jim Ramsey on the Malossi-tuned beast- he's got
no clock on it, was pleased as punch to hear those results. I'd
dig up the photo- oh wait, it's not watercooled (grin)...
Although, on the same scooter rally, there was one which was.
Homebuilt water-cooled setup on another Vespa 200 Rallye. Used a
951 Turbo aux pump  to circulate water through a Golf heater core!
Advised him against trying the type 44 pump (MAC...) when he
rebuilds it- suffered a hard seize at speed. And you thought Audi
types were a wacky bunch...
