So in the last few days i have pick up 3 new mopeds, Puch Maxi N, a FreeSpirit and a Columbia commuter ...might pick up 1 or 2 more in the next few days. I know, I know these are not Garelli's or even close but oh well I have a freaking problem.
My plan was to buy this freespirit get it running and sell it, but man is this thing awesome.
Man I love it!
This is a beautiful maxi N! The pedal spindle was very bent so it got cut.
It breaks my moped loving heart a little bit but this moped is going to my oldest friend Paul & his new wife Lisbeth.I hope you like it!
Now go ride off into the sunset you crazy kids!
Ps. the Columbia Commuter is beat. You want it? It has potential....? Come get it.
The boss pipe has been installed. We chopped up an old garelli header, matched it up to a boss pipe. It really works pretty well. It definitely gives me more power than when I had the bi turbo on there.
So for the past few days i have put my Garelli aside and have been working on my Ciao. All I can think about is making the Ciao awesome. So saturday I finished fabricating the top tube and welded it in.
It turned out alright seeing as how this was the first time i have ever welded anything. I figured i've seen my dad weld plenty of times it can't be that hard... well it is.
I add a "gusset" to the top tube where it butts up with the head tube to give it a bmx look . haha I'm pretty hyped on it..
So just about 6 weeks ago I got my face smashed in and broke my jaw. I've been eating blended soup and ice cream smoothies since then but today!! oh what a beautiful lovely day.... I get unwired, let loose, and set free to dominate a big fucking cheese burger and a beer.
here are a few things to look forward too along with not eating solids if you ever end up breaking your jaw.
1. Not being able to lick your lips.- It drives me nuts. Holy hell, try not to lip your lips for a day. It can't be done. I would watch my friends lick their lips and wish they would lick mine for me some times. A few actually offered; I have good friends.
2. Screaming - do the classic "hit your self in the thumb with a hammer" , or the not so classic" spill your freshly made banana,strawberry, avocado, ice cream smoothie all over the fucking place" and try to scream. You will sound way too much like Sloth and hurt your face.
3. Yawning - IT HURTS!!
A lot of good things have happened to me since this has happen though so it's been kind of a blessing.
I've had a lot of moped time and been hanging out with Jesse bad dude/good dude aka Spock
here are some photos of out latest moped fix it/break it marathon.
Updated pictures of my SSXL with the sealed back wheel, which is working awesome. I have my polini ( not case matched yet, i just want to break it in before it snows) 20mm carb, and bi turbo (thanks for letting me borrow this jesse!). My treats package with a boss pipe is out for delivery! BoOp.
*please note the super aesthetically pleasing mirror. It's the jam.
i love these shoes but they were falling apart so i got some spray adhesive and bad duded them out.
some how the image if an angry rubber ducky found its way into the insole of my shoe! LOOK ITS IN THERE!
