I’m not a fan of Puchs. They have all the after market stuff and are supposively easier to work on, but even the way the carb is strung up on hers is dumb. Mine is very simple, I can slide the carb right off to clean it without loosening anything but the intake bolt. She has to go through this whole process to get hers off.
Basically for anything cool for a Sachs bike, you’ve got to have it shipped over from Germany/Europe.
lol how can any moped be difficult to work one? They’ve got like, what, 10 moving parts? 
lol i miss andy
Really though, there’s an aftermarket for mopeds? Post some examples. I’m fascinated by the lame/awesome mix of it all.
Yeah, I dunno why everyone says that either, because I bought this one not running and just by poking around at stuff, I got it moving in about 30 mins. Then I dsocvered it had crap compression and swapped the engine in a weekend, again, not a clue what I was doing.
I think maybe folks say that because it’s easier to get Puch parts than Sachs parts. Who knows, I think the Sachs bikes look way cooler too, like an old school mini motorcycle. Puchs just look like a bike with an engine.
I love this bike:
It’s a 70s Foxy with Sachs engine, all redone.
It’s got the Biturbo exhaust I have on mine, and I can’t tell what the carb and filter are, but they are not original.
All sorts of after market stuff here: 1977mopeds.com
I’ll get some more examples from this Treats HQ place i always shop at, they’re in San Fran
:lol::awdrifter:
This is a rare Italian made Gianelli racing pipe, not made anymore so incredibly hard to come by, I won one last week on Ebay with only 20 miles on it, waiting for it to show up for other bike I’m working on…
Heavy duty EBR forks…
Large Dellorto racing carbs
Malossi Air filters
I can’t find a pic of the Athena racing cylinder, but these are replacement carbon reeds for that kit because the sachs engine will chew them up and spit them out…
Ever take it of any sweet jumps?
LOL when was this. We were doing a job over on bailey and i saw the same fucking thing 2 days ago. I gave him a :tup: while laughing extremely hard. He had somethin strapped to his handlebars and it was overly large
There are actually times when taking the entire lane is safer than staying on the edge of the road. Particularly Sweet Home where there are no bike lanes (and bike lanes are kind of shady sometimes) and roads like that where visibility is important.
Screw that mine’s better.
lol my old goped would totally smoke your moped
I have one of those. Its Orange and says JC PENNY PINTO on the tank. Whatever thats all about. My old man just got it for free. Thing is in real nice shape too but ive yet to ride it. tank was off when he got it for whatever reason and I havent fucked with it yet.
