Skorpion Aftermarket?
by idahoduk » Fri Oct 21, 2005 8:08 pm
What have you guys been doing to your bikes. I'm more interested in suspention and aftermarket fairings then I am engine mods. Alouth anything will help. I've had some trouble finding aftermarket parts for the MZ I'm planning on buying. I've heard of guys using R6 forks and honda fairings. Sounds interesting. If you have any links I'd definatly be interested in killing a few hours at work. Thanks

check out the racing series - anything that does work will be on a bike there!
look up mono racing on google - it might help!

I will only run out of ways of modify the Baggy when it weighs less that 100 kg and runs 100 bhp at the back wheel!!

Look at http://www.supermono.co.uk
Lots of advise can be gleaned from there. Thjere are some race fairings available for the Tigcraft frames, and easily adapted to take lights etc-one or two are above average quality for race fairings. Some second hand stuff is available too, if you don't mind doing a few repairs.
You can also find out which swing arms/forks/wheels etc can be made to fit too.
I'm going the otherway with mne-stock looking, but with a tuned motor and sorted stock (or near stock) suspension.

Beasley has good fiberglass stuff:

The Skorp stuff is at the bottom of the Ducati section. The tail section would require considerable modification for street use, and requires a good bit of creativity for mounting even for track use.
Here's two pics of the tail section and fairing:

Penske makes very good shocks for Skorps, I went with the Wilbers route:
http://wilbersusa.com/wilbers/index.htm
Penske does not exist in Europe to my knowledge, and so Wilbers is what the racers on the German site http://www.mzskorpion.de use. They are competative in price to the high-end Penske, but I think are more beautifully finished.
I haven't done any mods to the motor, and don't have any planned. I tried to make my Sport as light and nimble as possible, and am down to 346 pounds.
