Garelli Team kit brought to you by Jeremy Shay

whhhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat!? you know these kits have been floating around at Treatland for a while so Jeremy Shay nutted up and got one. It runs but plans to upgrade the reeds are in the works! so sick.

Brandon and Jesse came to my house

these dudes came over

got the tires and the malossi gears on the ciao. its finally coming together! unfortunately i dont have the tools here to remove the bearings and get my engine together so Brandon is bringing it to Minneapolis to get the bottom end together.

i might have too many mopeds

then we got some tacos

Garelli cdi box alternatve

the E50 cdi box/coil works on the garelli cdi so i got one and put it on. it helps clean up the wires a lot

Tonyhopper

AJ's buddy Tony and his friend Matt came out with his yamahopper that had been cutting out while he was riding. Popped the carb open and you couldnt see through the jet. Cleaned it out and runs like a champ now. If only it were always so easy.

Baby G stuff

I dont remember if AJ had posted this or not, but as you may know garelli made a different version of the NOI for the Katia. This engine is basically the same as a regular NOI except is sightly smaller/thinner. Some of the parts are interchangeable, but most are not. One of the parts that can be swapped including, you guessed it, the main gear. The Katia main gear is nearly half as thin as the regular NOI gear. All the benefits of a lightened main gear without using a lathe on yer old one.

Malossi piston lookin soooooooo good still. Full synthetic oil is the best. I have been running this (awesome and super rare) kit for almost 2 years now and it looks as good as ever. RAD

Jeni Rae's General

dont know why the one pictures is so dark. new cables and controls on Jeni Rae's General. this is a big ass moped.

Why would i do this?

1 speed ciao with a broken crank. Lots of rust but its all there. I'll fix it, make sure it runs good, and sell it.

Vespa Goodies

here is (almost) everything including the Weak-Ends Ciao pipe. its pretty big and rad. i have a few ideas how to fix why my engine is hard to put together. fingers crossed it will get done next week.

To Do List

Baby G: engine re-build, fresh clutch, re-jet, rear break.

SSLTD: super rich, fix lights.

General: make cables, new controls, tune.

Free Spirit: engine re-build.

Pint-whoa: do something with this.

Ciao Down: everything.

im busy.
