Vortxs or Vorti

What are more than 1 Vortx called?

Weather was great today, good day spent in the Essex lanes pitting R1 against Zetec.
Lots of missed gears, hitting neutral instead of 2nd, ouch.
I definately need a rejet, I can't pull above 10K

Cheers Dion, had a good day, sorry Reece for hitting the puddle (hence the mud).

I love the styling of the Vortx, But still can decided if I like the full front arches,(sorry can't afford one which is why I had to build) I must say that they could cut down on road spray no end.

Don't fret about me, just had a week on the Isle of wight with the family and am awaiting the next dry day so I can go for a drive.

Hi Steve
car looks great.
That missing second think is a real pain, is it because you using clutch for upchanges its way less likely without. The throttle return spring at the carb end also seemed to help a bit.
Remember after a miss the tendency is to try to bang it back in which worked for me right up until I banged the top of the gearstick off .

Hope the weather holds

cheers Pete

The nice thing about the full front arches is the choice. Since you start with a 'big' one, you can trim it whatever way you like, even back down to a standard size.

The look the mutts nuts guys!

The front arches are an aquired taste I think but apparently they help aerodynamics from the normal 7 brick...

They do help on the crap spraying front too. I'm going with full arch and then if they look a bit intrusive, put a similar black inset on the arch as Marc has done on his Orange beast...



It'll be great when we can get a proper gaggle of VortI (another possibility?) together. May even get my engine fired up next week! Just gotta find me a good crimping tool now...
