James, Wales? I thought it was the whole of the UK, isn't that why you all go to Spain for holidays?

Hi Dave

As a daily Solex pilot until recently, just want to say your's looks ace.

Where'd you get the white wall cyclomoteur tyres?

Also just a tip for you, check carefully the internal diameter of the inlets on the Solex as some markets had restricted manifolds fitted, which can effect performance.

If you find one of these crappy manifolds, throw it a long way away and fit a proper one. Also there are unofficial but subtle mods you can make to the exhaust that help boost power. :mrgreen:
