srobrien Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 Picked her up a few days ago, a 2.0ltr pinto powered robin hood 2b. Great fun although it needs a bit of work but its been bought as a project so after this summer its off the road and getting stripped down.

SwanageDave Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 How much are those? They look awsome! I sold my 2ltr pinto powered one built in 1994 with twin 40s for £3550 which i thought was a good deal as you can pick them up cheaper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwanageDave Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 I have sat in the garage a straight through exhaust and a spare set of alloys for that if you want them mate, also are you going to keep the sliding pillar suspension on it? i kept mine on but the first one had already been changed.

Cheers for all the info Dave, have already joined the rhoc decent site. Im not sure about the suspension, i noticed Gaz do a set of replacement dampers and shocks for £380 so might be worth a punt. Im looking into a bike carb setup already but im not sure if my mechanical skills are up to it yet R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwanageDave Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 robin hood sell the bike carb setup including the manifold and as far as i am aware its quite easy, a mate did his on his own and it left me for dead lol. but i would get a garage to set it up myself as i am not 100% sure i could do it. But you will love it and get as many nice comments as you do with the Zed.its just a shame you are up north as the london to brighton kitcar run is a fantastic event. Enjoy it mate p.s i think the bike carbs were about 200 quid last time i checked but always kits on ebay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srobrien Posted June 16, 2010 Author Share Posted June 16, 2010 thanks again dave I have emailed GBS about the carb kit. R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
