The Puch lives!
The seat had to be mounted by making a bracket to fit existing to new, it now starts with the first kick but needs the chain lengthening, so that's the job for tomorrow. Next is re-installing the electrics.

New seat
So the new seat finally arrived from Treats, it took 3 wks in all. Two days to get here and the rest of the time it was sat in customs awaiting Clearance! A £18 custom charge and the beauty was in my hands. Just need to make a bracket to mount the seat to the frame! Will probably do that on the weekend then!

Shocking mini magnum
So today I had a little tinker with the magnum x. For some reason it was sitting very low at the rear. Either the front forks are not original and are too long or the rear shocks have had it. Anyway I had a rumage through our mounting pile of moped parts and dug out two slightly longer and stiffer rear shocks. See the before and after shots. Much better!

New number plate
So I've got my new plate through as I had broken mine. Basically the other night I forgot to do up the wheel nuts on the rear and it fell off splitting the plate in two!
