Ok so first things first, I’ve got a heap of parts that once resembled a moped sitting in my garage. I knew what needed to be done- tear down, document and then make a list of what was missing.
The disassembly process:
So after purchasing a dremmel tool and some cutting discs, mission accomplished!
And then there was the swing arm that, for the life of me, I couldn’t remove the bolt from. I ended up cutting the head off the bolt and just sliding it out with the bolt stuck in there forever. Add that to the list of needed parts.
I chose not to include the about 1 million rusted bolts that were eventually removed in this process- not wanting to bring back painful memories… just know they were cataloged and replaced with new shiny bolts. See below:
Ok so what do we have now? Answer- a bunch of old rusty/half panted parts, in need of some serious cleaning. Also a more comprehensive list of parts that need to be purchased!
