- King of the Clubman's? - Lambretta scooter - Taylor Tuned 33hp - touring rally exhaust
This right here is a 33hp RB252 Lambretta fitted with a Clubman exhaust, which pulls 4.4 gearing, cruises at 20mph in 5th gear at just 1800rpm and can be rolled on in the same gear to hit just under 90mph when you stretch its legs. If you don’t quite comprehend what this engine is achieving, it can be very easy to overlook it. But once you start to look at the numbers, and then actually ride the thing… the story starts to unravel.
I’ll cut to the chase and go straight in with the numbers... this test ride took place on an RB252 engine, running a filtered 39mm Dellorto (that isn’t the recommended carb/size - that’s just what this owner had available)a 5-speed gearbox with 4.4 final drive, and is fitted with a clubman box pipe. It kicks out circa 33hp and 26ft-lbs but the most astonishing thing is the fact that you can ride this scooter in 5th gear at 20mph (1800rpm) and then roll on the throttle and take it up to an easy 80mph, and beyond that, if you don’t run out of road! So the scooter has a 60-70mph speed range in just one gear! Of course, you can go to the other end of the spectrum with it and just launch the thing through every gear, and believe me… it pulls! But not in the usual way often associated with tuned scooters where there is a rather underwhelming first few thousand RPM, before the thing launches like a scalded cat and rips your arms off. No, this is a torque-driven power delivery and from only 3000rpm it already has 15ft-lbs, 4000rpm is 20ftlbs, and it peaks at 6000rpm with 26ft-lb. The bhp peak is at 7000rpm, but will rev on to 8000rpm. This combination of torque and bhp, balanced in that way, is what contributes to it being possibly the smoothest and most flexible/user-friendly engine I have ever ridden (as far as classic air-cooled 2-strokes go). Oh, and did I mention that it can also return up to 60mpg if ridden sensibly?

ps the 39mm carb is a just a spare eric had and saves him buying a new one development motors are on 30mm and 35mm options which in tests are making as much power and should improve economy and low rpm response even more
Noted for the magazine article... ;)
Flatslide carb for the 30/35?
Ty.. final ride was my route to work in Sturry @benjys
Similar bottom torque as the 210 Quattrini, still smooth and responsive at 30mph in top gear.
Got a very similar set up on order. Can't wait!
That was a great video Dan.
Christopher Sturgess cheers bud... had fun making it :)
The Scooter Factory , I bet you did. I do enjoy your videos Dan, keep up the good work bud. 👍🏻👍🏻
Bellissima , e un bravo pilota........( Viva la Lambretta..) .
All my christmases and birthdays right there in that set up
Isn’t it. What a beauty.
Please sir, gimmi one sir! looks great fun.
Runs similar to my RT230 reedvalve, not so revvy and loads of torque. Want one!
Yes, RT kits are fab little things, I’ve built/tuned and Dyno’d quite a few. I’m guessing your 230 reed valve will be around 20-23hp which will be around 10-13hp less than this. But it’s the torque figure on this and the sheer spread which is amazing. Checkout the stats in the video description...27ft-lbs! 😳😎👍
The Scooter Factory yeah mine is not quite 33bhp! I’ve always preferred the torquey motor. Would be good to see these sold as kits.
still sounds standard even with the tailpipe, i thought you was gonna catch the porsche and pass it :D i wasnt riding the scooter but i had to laugh with excitement like yourself when you pulled up to give it back.
lee guy not my scooter otherwise I’d have given it a go 😆
@@drunkmunkey6969 i really enjoyed the vid i watch your vids on here bcas they keep me informed of things i aint got a clue about with being new to scooters tnx.
Thanks bud, glad you like them. I enjoy making them. Though filming only takes a little while... editing, uploading and descriptions take me ages 🤣
Why bother with a Targa, when you can get this kind of delivery 🤩
I couldn’t possibly comment 🤓
sounds like a mentally fast standard engine , guess its pretty decent on juice as well given the tune, looks lovely to ride.
Up to 60mpg if ridden sensibly 🤓
Blimey, that kind if mpg isn't much worse than my series 2 with a Casa kit, Clubman and sh20!
@@gavinevans4711 yup, it's very interesting as to the reason why also, especially at these performance levels. All will be revealed in the magazine :)
Great vid. I heard DT was planning on an m210 version. Is that one available yet? 🙃
Not sure where DT is up to with his pipe development, I’m sure he will let you know if you drop him a line... 👍
Is it based around the Avanti Ex-Box? Obviously tweaked by DT?
The box section is similar, the header pipe is unique to DT.
