Peugeot 103 dual variated swing arm

I came across one of these swing arms once before and let it get away. Not this time! It turned up today and apart from needing a good clean it looks to be complete and in good condition.
I first saw one of these swing arms on one of Christophe's builds at Tomahawk tuning.
This will double the gear range over the single variator setup on my peugeot vogue.
Watch this space ;-)

Tomos headlight and voltage regulator

Yesterday after I finished work on the Motobecane I fitted a voltage regulator  behind the headlamp on the Tomos. I'd been blowing headlight bulbs so hopefully this will solve that problem. Only thing left to do now is fit the speedo then its off to get it MOT'd.

Motobecane test ride and tune

Yesterday I had some time so I took the Motobecane out to test the new carb. Initially I didnt think there was much of an improvement over the old carb and was still quite boggy at low end. Anyway I fiddled about with it and after finding that it was running too rich I removed multiple screens from the airfilter which improved the airflow and reduced the low end bog. It also upped the top speed up to 32mph.
Next id just like to got through the clutch and make sure its working correctly but im waiting on a clutch/flywheel puller.
Its coming on! 
 

 

 

Here is a quick video of it idling with the new carb.

 



 

Motobecane replacement carburettor

Today I spent a bit of time removing the old Gurtner carb from the motobecane and fitting the newer Gurtner that came off my peugeot. It fitted straight on the intake so I ran a new throttle and choke cables and fitted a fuel filter.
When it stops raining I'll give it a run.

Doppler ER3 Variator

I ordered this top of the line variator for my peugeot vougue. I found it on French ebay for a great price. I will probably fit this at the same time as I do the watercooled kit on the motor.
