Didn't realise that two strokes were still alive and kicking, great to see, mine's not quite as shiny (or as quick!)

Karma24, That's a nicely modified Aerox, did you do it all your self?
Trev, are those Yamaha Townmates?

No I think the Townmate is shaft driven 4 stroke although not 100% sure? These are V50 (the hand painted one!) and a V75 which I bought to transfer head, barrel & carb to the fifty to help it carry me up hills! Only problem is the 75 is a twist n go auto whereas the 50 is stamp down 3 speeder so now have a V80 to take the motor out of when I get the time - yup I actually have three, what the hell was I thinking?!?

Alcohol inspired?

When your done if you want rid of the scrap carcasses give me a shout.

I'm going to punt the V75 off whole as it's all there and was running when I got it' I'll take you up on the V80 but what are you going to do with it without a motor?

[WR6133]

Locate a motor. I'm sure enough eBay trawling while restoring the rest would turn one up eventually (or enough bits to make one).

Sounds like a possible chicken chaser race at Henstridge some day? ;)

It'll probably be quicker than I managed on the NC!

If you want the V75 you can have it, I'll probably never get round to advertising it and even if I do it will end up being won by someone who will haggle over the 30 years old tyres and non standard indicators. Let me know when you want it and I'll dump it outside your front door ; )

[Karma24]

Thanks mate! Unfortunately I'm not that mechanical minded to even want to split my bike down and put the parts In. Oil seals, bearings, crank, clutch, variator, carb, manifold and reeds, cdi and ignition coil was done by a mechanic in my town. It's a complete Stage 6 set up no corners cut 70cc Sport Pro.

I'll shoot you a PM. In return, do you want me to do that engine swap for you? I've got 6 days off at end of January.

Nice to see another scooter owner. Good work there. Hope that proves more reliable than by damned Lambretta. Also have a Vespa 300GTS that gives no trouble ever, but not a real scoot as it's 4 stroke

Cheers but I think it's a bit more than a motor swap as 80 is CDI and 50 is points, I've already got the motor out. Happy to let you have a play if you want as I won't get round to it for ages.
PM when you're ready

That's good. There are so many 'tune up' parts available now, it's hard to make them all work together.

Townmate did have a shaft drive, I remember now :cool:
