In the meanwhile some nice brass bushings pressed into the fork arms. This should be better than the plastic stuff from the CIF…[Lees meer]

😀 I checked my wifes vanity case but she only has the version without Aceton. That is too soft :lol

Just tested the Graffiti remover at one side of the lamp housing. Not too bad I would say.

thanks Dino, maybe it is close to the original color from 1969 Verde Paraggi.

update

new clutch bell from Lennaert :thumb

does somebody know if there is a special tool for pull off the Simo ignition flywheel?

no, the front rim does not have the Schothorst marking and no grooves for Handbrake.
The marking on the front rim is: A 1,20×17

I do not know if it is a Dutch Ciao, I can not find any NL marking on it. Is there a way to find out if it is a Dutch Ciao?

because of better quality ? :haha

Bas23, danke. Ja, ich habe es in der Liste gefunden, ist Bj. 1968 :thumb

Hi, I have a frame with frame number C9E1T*56885*

In my frame number list the C9E1T numbers start at *1250001* up from build year 1972.

Does somebody has info about build year of my frame number?

sehr schön :thumb

😀 I love that sound from a long mono gear ratio what only the old models can make.

When I took it out of the barn everything was coated with dark dust like mold.

but a bucket water could help 😉

I hope that we will get more of these worm days in the next weeks or month. Then I will take my time to drive some nice…[Lees meer]

aah, thanks Crullie, very good advice :thumb

But how is it possible to get the right inlet timing?
I think it is difficult to set the assembled disc-holder with bearing on the krukas without having a degree reference. 😐
