Scooterotica

first legshield/ MG trial assembly.

seat back from the restorer shop:

Looks very comfortable think you will be happy doing some miles on it . Really enjoyed this build its been educational. I will have a tinge of sadness when its over although I can't wait for the dyno run!! cheers

Personally I can't wait until it's finished...let me know when it's done mate and I'll hop over to Paris and pick it up in person.

...you are building it for me, right FF?

Heh heh, seriously though mate...the scoot's looking fantastic!

Thanks everyone. We are very close to the end now. Just a matter of FFoocking wiring issues. I'm using a DC single phase regulator conversion and need to incorporate it just behind the main switch at the rear of the seat. Une galère! as I must confess I'm definitely a dumb arsh in electricity... Plus carb setting unfinished, my old mytronic seems to have failed but it's maybe just a matter of a plug cap swap... And last but not there least: I need to register her properly. I've got spanish paper and guess what? French administration has nothing to envy the north korean madness. Always missing the right form.
Snapper you're welcome to Paris mate. Easy to have you home, we do have a spare room....

Some like it not but I do!

Oooooosh!

Engine is a beast.. But clutch seems to drag a bit. No way to get back to neutral when stand still in first. Cable is tight enough. Any idea?

try adjusting clutch so its definitely disengaging, (make it hard to pull in) if it still does it look at the spider and rear sprocket, sometimes the sprockets can drag on the spider due to not enough play between them.
how tight do you have the chain? could be the spider dragging on the rear sprocket!

when you have sorted it get it on a dyno
