cheap blata!
...

go on then Very Happy
Just tell me so I can film you being passed by newbs on hire bikes Very Happy

You're still looking at £500 ish probably, (unless you go for a 2.5hp Confused )... but mine will have at least twice the hp, which should help compensate for the weight disadvantage Very Happy.... and be alot less likely to fall apart, as well as having an engine designed for minimoto's rather than strimmers Smile

The Blata 'Super' is apparantly quite good.... but everything I've read says avoid the cheap ones.

Fair enough if you're just messing about them... but we'll probably be using them on tracks mostly... it gets annoying when you're on a hire bike and you just can't go any faster. So I can see it getting really annoying when people on hire bikes come past you, on the straights when you're going round the outside of them on every corner.

Anyway... that's the general impression I got about Blata's... I still don't know much about minimoto...
www.minimotoclub.com/bb would be the place to go to talk to peopke that know about it.

/me is worried Very Happy

Ages ago (around the time mario kart came out on the N64) I was considering trying to modify the Q2 engine to make a minimoto game ... someone had done it for a kart game.
The whole way that you did power slides in mario kart seemed much more appropriate on a minimoto.... didn't ever really get past making basic HL maps as far as 'modding' goes though Sad

Powersliding on a mini-moto?...you mean on your arse? Laughing

I'm basically re-designing the game engine that I made for my uni project...I'm gonna use D3D instead/in addiiton to OpenGL.

The shiny floor at Hullavington meant that it did slide at every opportunity Confused... including quite a few two-wheel slides Confused

Dunno if I can help you if you're using D3D though Smile

[sigh]
well... I suppose it isn't too bad now-a-days.

Yea, I occasionally have look through ebay for minimoto's, despite allready having one Smile

1. Dunno what it it, but it looks a bit home made, with far too much fairing Confused

2. Go for it if you're brave enough and don't mind a lot maintenance (think they're 13hp as well)

3. If you can find someone insane enough to join you Smile.. thouh I think the faster ones use cg 125 engines or similar.
