Scooterotica

Aplogies to those that have seen some of these on the old board.

The previous owner got it from an old boy who'd had it since new and started to restore it...


As it was when I got it...




The rebuild begins...


























had the engine running briefly this afternoon. Roll on Spring.

It is looking good

Have an N Reg Jet frame No's 5558** is the spec of yours accurate for the year ie SX panels and runners

have no idea myself but would like to rebuild fairly accurately

that looks really nice.........well done mate...............

30 odd years have passed on i seem to remember the jet 200 had li panals with handles not sx ,i could be wrong as they seemed to stick 'owt' on they had left over!

The early ones were identical to SX 200s except for the mudguard and horncasting. They even had disk brakes. As time went on and parts became scarce, they used more LI bits.

I really like jets, an old guy who lived around the corner from me had one when i was a kid a lot later version though with the stripes on the panel but in the same colour used to watch him ride about on it....wonder what happened to it.

yep nice that mate

you got to post some pic's when its finished,thats one stunning scoot mate

Really nice! i like very much this colour!

It's funny realy cos in the 80s I would have hated that colour but now I like it
