Although this buggy car is already made, it is still in process of improving. Most of the disadvantages like the suspension control, selection of damper, stiffening and engine accessories were considered once again and are now fixed or just reduced.
Although the engine isn't of a very impressive power, the beginners may be positively surprised by fun that comes from riding this incredible vehicle. It fits medium speed of ride through meadows and pastures, wilderness and forests rather than roads. It is possible to drive faster only on such surfaces like a snowy and icy place or a wet meadow.
The frame is universal. There is also a possibility to inset a bigger engine.
About the components:
The frame and arms are made of 3/4” tube and 27x40 profiles. Like it is in the famous project PIRANHA, the front two arms fit the 126p steerings. The bottom arm is strengthen because it has to move the whole construction weight. The construction weight is amortized by the damper, which was taken from Honda CBR600. In the back of this vehicle there is one arm and telescopes from Golf with a hardened spring.
Regenerated brakes also come from 126p. They are controlled with FSO Polonez pump and provide effective all-wheal braking.
The steering system is a truncated bar taken from Fiat Tico. It is linked with the control of height-adjustable steering wheel from FSO Polonez by a steering column. The steering wheel itself is a sport type one with naba (bush to distance the steering weel from the car counters).
The engine is standard 650cc on an alternator and ignition device. Some modifications of gearbox were made in order to make it possible to reverse the drive unit on 180*. That is why the engine may be placed centrally, what improves the weight distribution between the axles.
The gear-shift has leather protective bellows and it goes with the reversed drive unit. The drive unit moves the power by modified aftermath and by special sports links TRIPOD 126p. They are the reason why there isn't any effect of a broken link and it is possible to inset the engine higher, so there is no trouble with the sump – it won't stay on any bigger stone. The engine is covered with a bigger clutch disc with clamp from cc900. This solution decreases the jerking and increases the life of drive shafts and modes. The silencer mounted not only looks good, but it also makes a pleasant sound.
As an addition, there is a transistorized ignition module that cooperates with a mechanical device. It improves the spark performance, which makes possible starting without any suction even in winter.The lens halogens focus whole light on the road.
The vehicle is also a really comfortable machine. The inter groclin seat with 3-spots seat belts is cosy and safe. The installation is without the ignition and it is started by a button. The tachometer consists of blue back light and a red hand.
When coated with black plastic, a buggy can limit the amount of mud splashing on a driver. One of it's main features is simplicity, so it's easy to make ind fix it yourself.
