Big Evolution kit from Polini: 94cc for Piaggio and Minarelli LC

EXCLUSIVE! News just in from the Polini camp - 94cc is now in production and will be arriving with us on our next delivery.

To be honest we were hoping for an 80cc for next year's BSSO but Polini have gone one step further - 94cc! We are still in shock. Kits will be available for both Minarelli and Piaggio liquid cooled engines, power capabilities have still not been quoted but we are sure we'll find out at the show next week.

From the pictures we have available the cylinder looks like something you would find on YZ 80 motorcross rather than a scoot. Exhaust port looks similar to the Evo 3 kits and is sporting three exhaust studs, we think either a new stub for Evo 10 or a revised exhaust will be popping up shortly.

A long stroke crankshaft is to be used alongside the 52mm bore giving the 94cc which as you would expect will need some work in the crank casings to accept it. As we learn more we will let you know. A 94cc sprinter coming soon we think...

Big Evolution kit update!

All parts will be available from July 2010 and we have been told from Polini HQ that the new 94cc is capable of a whopping 33bhp.
