Archetype Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 I think it would look good if you put the tag back on. I've just posted a pic of your stickers on my website, with a link to your project thread: http://vinylimpact.co.nz/latest-work-puch-stickers-for-custom-moped/ I hope you don't mind (let me know if you do). Also, I've made those changes to the testimonials page so you can post up a comment now if you like: http://vinylimpact.co.nz/testimonials/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archetype Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 I want one so bad now after reading your thread. My girlfriend has been trying to get me to buy a new bicycle or fix my old one so we can go on some missions. I think one of these might be a better option though.

10Speed Posted August 15, 2011 Author Share Posted August 15, 2011 cheers, have left some feed back on there (currently awaiting moderation) Mopeds are thin on the ground but worth hunting out I get lots of positive feedback when I'm out on my Raleigh ( http://www.oldschool.co.nz/phpbb/viewto ... 46&t=19349 ) and recently rebuilt the engine in this http://www.oldschool.co.nz/phpbb/viewto ... 46&t=25199 for my girlfriend...

10Speed Posted September 10, 2011 Author Share Posted September 10, 2011 after about 2hrs riding (in total) the 40 year old clutch decided a 5 fold increase in power was too much... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

10Speed Posted September 15, 2011 Author Share Posted September 15, 2011 hopefully not to much less slip, requires some slip to get into the powerband... we'll soon see... fyi this will be in ShedFive from next Saturday afternoon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheepers Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 i saw your clutch on the bench at Stirling Brake and Clutch the other day. the old guy was all "its out of some moped thing, cant imagine how you'd do that to a moped clutch" i said "maybe he strapped a hairdryer to the side and doubled it's horspower" many lols ensued.

sheepers Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 now you're just talking crazy!! nothing can handle that sort of power! one point twenty one giggawatts!!!!!!! etc... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archetype Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 Do you reckon the new clutch will handle the extra power, or is it going to wear rapidly like the old one? Only one way to find out I guess? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

10Speed Posted September 16, 2011 Author Share Posted September 16, 2011 Good idea, will sort out a teeny tiny sprocket for the back and have a crack at top speed after the comp. Any thoughts on a long straight flat road? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

10Speed Posted September 16, 2011 Author Share Posted September 16, 2011 will I lose my license if I get caught riding a moped 40kph above 50kph on the open road? (mopeds are not meant to exceed 50kph) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
