Thanks mate, I was going to build 2 of them, one with a 350 ypvs engine in it, the thing is that the stock engine is so small you could stick it in your pocket and carry it round all day, its quoted as giving 50 bhp and the bike weighs nowt so I reckoned that was the fun in the deal.

He looks to be having enough fun on a stock one, I wouldn't be suprised if 60bhp could be achieved with a bit of tuning.


Just as a side not, this is the forth one I've owned, no of them ran and this was easily the worst when I got it, which is probably the reason no one has talked me into selling it to them.

Andy

But you would be rebuilding it every 5 minutes and parts are like hens teeth now.
Besides, I have this:

Which is a Spondon F2 framed, fahron barrelled 440 cc rd400 engined which at a guess would be putting out around that power and is a bit more reliable and tracktable. 8-) 8-)

we have a bloke that comes into our place thats into paintballing, there all a bit mad but they like their guns to be replicas of whatever is impossible to get, the rarer the better.
I thought you might all like to see this, its a replica of a gattling gun, its been a bit of a challenge but its beginning to get there.

Its not got the casings on it, the first one is a video.

Just to clarify, the above depicts a replica of a gattling gun that we have made for a customer, we have actually not modified the gun in anyway we just made the replica bits and the mechanism.
The original paintball gun is legal and produces less than 12ft llb and we didn't modify any part that would increase this power.
