I thought I would share my recent efforts to establish a realistic top speed for my SSR/Italjet Buccaneer 250i, since I see a lot of interest in top speeds here. I've worked out some general ideas on...

Congratulations! I've got the same version of that Lifan fuel-injected motor in my SSR/Italjet Buccaneer, and predict you'll be very happy with it. I'll be interested in your future reports.

Don't overlook the ABS being introduced on the Caffeina. I'd like to have that.
As I believe I mentioned before, this cosmetic design is older than the Buccaneer, and was to be produced and sold...

Yep, that's very interesting indeed. Much more swarf than mine, and a good reason not to use samples of n = 2 for inference.
I would still maintain that manufacturers have good reasons for their...
