The monza Is alive!!!!

So after placing the oko and the hpi on this bike it runs! Its awsome I took it on a 25 mile round trip a few days ago and was very pleased. The seat sucks……..real bad. Aside from my ass hurting something fierce it was a blast, I would venture to say the bike does at least a solid 55+ . I am having a little trouble with the gear selector as it refuses to downshift into third but whatever its fun.
I have done a decent amount of work so far to the bike and will properly document it all once the bike is finished. I have a feeling the case is going to get opened up if Treats can snag me a roller bearing crank for this bad boy. More to come!

The Blow Hole makes it first full voyage!

So last night was epic for me and my bike. For about a year now I have been tuning, wrenching, blowing up, slipping, sliding, and so on. Finally last night the Pug made a good 20 mile ride with no problems. To date I have to thank a few people for there help with this bike.: Master tuner and all things french, Naz (Michael Mike), My friend Casey G, Dean at Seattle Mopeds for letting me use the moped shop several times to continually rebirth this bike, and special thanks to treatshq for draining my bank account! Anyway with that said the pug is really great and tons of fun to ride, It still needs some top end tuning and such but other than that it feels solid. I am running an er3 variator and a clutch pulley as well at this point so I don’t have to worry about disintegrating clutches any longer. To date this bike has received:
