d2w Posted October 12, 2017 Report Share Posted October 12, 2017 Hello from the Canadian side of the 'pond'. My son has a 2006 TXT 80 and I'm thinking of "refreshing" the top end. The OEM cylinder is a Morini and is made with iron (and is not Nicosil (sp?) coated). As a result I am considering a complete kit from Italkit (model CK.22.750.G). Anything I do will be an improvement to the (lack of) power output. Does anyone have any experience with Italkit and/or this particular kit? At the moment I'm trying to determine if the kit is available and from whom I could order it. Scooters and their support shops are not very popular here in N.A. Your help is appreciated.

d2w Posted October 13, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2017 Thanks for the link. But I don't see the model of engine I have in my TXT 80. I believe it may be a GG engine with a Morini cylinder. The cylinder looks like the one on the Morini M65-C engine, but the bore is 47mm (with a displacement of 74cc). So close but no cigar. Other links I've tracked-down imply that the cylinder (or engine (?)) may be a Gilardoni. And I've also seen a reference to Gilera. Thinking about Spain and Italy and Europe made me recall this Canadian joke about what's Heaven and Hell: Heaven: British policemen, German mechanics, Italian lovers, French cooks, all organized by the Swiss. Hell: German policemen, French mechanics, Swiss lovers, British cooks, all organized by the Italians. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
