So next I just have to cut the frame down, buy an extended pivot bolt to mount the front and a set of rear shocks for the back and it should be ready.

Dual variated swingarm
So next I just have to cut the frame down, buy an extended pivot bolt to mount the front and a set of rear shocks for the back and it should be ready.
Peugeot Vogue 70cc H2O kit
Today I decided to start installing the watercooled 70cc airsal kit on the Peugeot Vogue. Everything seemed to be included in the kit apart from a base gasket but luckily I had a spare.
Long story short I disassembled the old cylinder and started to install the new kit when for some stupid reason I managed to brake one of the piston rings!!! I'll have to put that part of the build on hold until the new rings arrive.

AV10 mounted-ish
Today with the imminent hurricane surging towards the coast, cookson and I got going on the Motobecane.
The carb has been rubber mount fitted. Seems it'll need some adjusting to work whilst under power and variation. The peddle near side also looks bent under examination, but these things are all in the dance if you own a 40yr old moped!
