ZA50 Breakdown Videos

My Puch Sport MKII’s ZA50 had a loose 1st gear nut and after pulling away from a stoplight, it blew the bearing ring out through the clutch case cover.  Here is the breakdown and reassembly I had to do to get it running again.

This was the first time I ever took apart my motor, so please excuse the fact that I may have used the wrong terminologies at times…however, I feel SO much closer and more in tune with my bike now that it’s running again.  Hopefully these videos will help some people know what to expect when they open up their case and not have to experience some of the trials and tribulations that I faced going in.

VIDEOS AFTER THE JUMP.

Rat Pug Build Up part 2

Back to the shop for more fixings and pleasantries.   I am building a monster.  

1. Polini 4 petal reed case
2. ParmaKit Crank
3. ParmaKit 70cc 46mm water cooled cylinder kit
4. 19 mm dellorto sha 
5. Polini Radiator
6. Bosch auxilary water pump from a MB slk230
7. BikePuter (for accurate Mph)

All parts except the radiator arrived by yesterday.  I got the motor together tonight, It well oiled and sealed up.   The stator and the clutch have been installed.  Tomorrow I will put it back on the bike, hook up the carb and attempt to crank and tune it.

RatPug 103 Build up

For those of you who dont know. I recently came across a peugeot 103. I started with some easy stuff.
dellorto 15.15, polini 4 petal reed block, split twin exhaust, cafe bars, and removed all of the fenders and seat mount and mounting a long seat on the rack, and a puch ignition, I removed 3 balls from the clutch for a little better pick up off the line. It is alright but not nearly fast enough.
