Re: Needs a bit of work
Posted: Sun Jan 08, 2017 1:37 pmSorry to be slow in uploading pics but here she is after all the usual work:- new piston,barrell,head,clutch,oil seal,flywheel re-magnetised,cables,bulbs,stud work,brakes,new seat & loads more. Now been on the road since around March last year and has 1000 miles on the clock never missed a beat in standard form 125 Special. Only non-standard items are fast flow fuel tap & AF Rayspeed 42mm clubman exhaust.
Most of the work done by my mate 'Ash' who deserves all the credit. I know she's the wrong colour courtesy of an Italian gentleman in a previous life and also right footboard had some Italian surgery!!

Re: Needs a bit of work
Posted: Thu Feb 23, 2017 11:11 pmWell done!
I meant to ask sooner, but that rear light (with it's non-red reflector portion) is unusual & obviously MOT compliant. Did you inherit it with the rest of the bike?

BTW, is that rear rack mounted too far back? Should it be one fixing hole further forward?

Posted: Fri Feb 24, 2017 6:43 pmWhat a lovely Scooter.
As far as the rear rack mounting is concerned I have mine mounted as yours is. More room for the pillion but does look better further forward.
I would however change the wing nuts for nylocs.
