My Norton Commando always needs something. I repaired the leaking fiberglss tank last winter… then this spring I has the worst sound when I went to start it. Turns out it was a loose rotor – easy fix.

The cylinder base gasket had a blow out (guess I didn’t tighten them up enough after Herb’s rebuild) so that is an outstanding to do.

I do like the 60s lightweight mopeds, I’d like an early Mobylette in robin’s egg blue!

Yeah,
Sorry Chris, I have limited hosting space so I don’t want to get into managing photos. You could try Imgur – it’s free and been around long enough to not go commercial. https://imgur.com/
Here’s a random Puch pic from that site

Funnily enough, I’m Phil too.
Oh my, at least the threads held with 8tonnes on the press! My SGS is running fine – I’ve got the 175 that needs a rebuild. The cylinder has been recoated (nikasil, not chrome!) but other than that, it’s patiently waiting it’s turn in my que of projects.

Love the air filter! You’ve got some work ahead of you, but the bones look solid!
