Matt,
been busy today rebuilding a gearbox, so only just had time to read the paper and spotted another Simson on page 39.
Guess they're like buses, nothing for a long time, then two turn up together... 8-)

Heres a pair i saw in East Germany near Colditz last year. Yes they are 2 stroke . Love the way east european cold war era stuff has that period surveillance camera look headlamp 8-)

This is an OSA, a Polish 150cc scooter , i saw this one visiting when i was at the euro-Lambretta rally (like the WM but for lambrettas) at Neckarsulm a couple of years ago. Similar style headlamp i thought.

Just noticed that Google Street View has now gone nationwide, but so far, no sign of my 2cv :lol: My brother's Morris Minor is on there though, complete with the reg.no. showing :? All other cars have had their plates smudged. Must be a computer software that detects modern plates and smudge them automatically, I guess.

Hi Ken

Yes, although I hasen to add mine does not come with a small potted Geranium on the right hand side of the handlebars.

Yes at the moment all I know it needs is a headlamp and a new clutch, but I suspect that I should also change the chain and cables too. resisiting the urge to get it repainted but I'll check what its like. Maybe a repaint into Jaune Mimosa? lol

On the subject of Mopeds Brian Aplin of Aplins in Bristol (a proper old school mechanic) has just finished fitting a new block to my sports mobylette. He's starting on the gearbox now which apparently contains a few broken teeth, so hopefully its not long before I'm back on two wheels. I really miss it.

I love the smell of two stroke in the morning especially with a shot of redex in...
