I've got a question on that little scorpa, is it using bicycle wheels, or actual motorcycle rims? I know the rim sizes are measured different between them, and internet digging doesn't turn much up.
They are bicycle wheels...front is regular 20 inch bmx size....rear is bicycle on 19 inch trials and unicycle rims and takes fatter than bmx tires, only 2 available tires for that rim though so price on rear quite a bit more than front. Bike is size of bmx bike and uses regular mountain bike forks and shocks,pedals(they rotate but do not pedal), brakes, seat and seatposts( like my cruiser seat with springs?) too. Only 13 in USA and i own 6 of them little buggers.
140 mile...4 day hike/run...no flat sections either...at least it seemed...
That was a few days ago...here is this morning before I work on 650.
Rainy day, waiting on parts too...so nothing exciting here
These aint sitting in here today! 3 cups of coffee and 6:15 am already...ready to ride.

Slow start...big rain clouds moving in...650 needs more motor running time to see it's engine manners...sooner or later rest of parts show up so lights are on.
These 3 bikes had over 50 years down time combined since they last ran. And my 1981 suzuki had not run since 1997 when i got it in 2015. Fun fixing em...but way more fun riding for me.
