Sure they did an 80N

The blue frame hurt my eyes at first, it's growing on me though  :)

One of the best 125's in the twinshock class.

Possibly, but at 16 stone in my gear, do I have any right to be on one?

Ok i'd probably stick to 250/500's... extra weight seems to kill a 125

I'd say a 175 engine would bolt straight in but not sure about the 175 parts fitting the 125 cases.

Exactly what I thought.

Anyone else tried this mod?

In short the distance between studs vary.... Rm 125 N at reed  = 90mm  and the  T  are 68 mm where as the Pe are 72 mm    
There is no way you are going to fit a PE 175 barrel in Rm 125 N/T cases  without a lot of welding and Milling ;)

Hey Stew wouldn't the 125N & T be the same?

You would think so but there diferent....cases, crank.....probably why you dont see many around...I think the N's closer to the ABC but the T's on its own.
