London? That means that you're only 30 minutes ride from Hully. See you Friday.

I used to race them at Colne, its was fun. I had a watercooled Blata origami.

"Probably one of the most popular minimotos on the planet. Origami B1 is one of the most powerful stock bikes in its 39cc class, reaching an amazing 14.5HP.
Obviously, not for beginners, but for advanced riders who crave for speed and stability. Origami B1 is a true jewel in the Blata lineup"

If its the chinese B1 Replica's, they have issues.

Make sure that the clutch doesn't slip (if its on its original clutch just change it for a Blata or Pollini equivalent bt it will still need setting up) and it doesn't boil up as the rads have blocked cores. Also they don't make anywhere near the power of a proper Origami B1 usually about 6hp.

I recall Proper B1's are about £1500 - £2000 new.

Yep it's a Chinese B1 Rep... No probs with clutch or rad.. beg to differ on the power i reckon a lot more than 6bhp... accelerates like a banshee... as i say not for the faint hearted or young beginners...

6hp is quite a lot in the mini moto world. A standard Watercooled Polini GP5 Reverse is only 6.2hp and thats a pukka minimoto race bike. A full on Origami B1 with 14hp will go over well 60mph and is very scary. I used to wheely down the full length of the straight.
