 KynastKynast  made in Germany by Kynast  Sachs 504, 508 engine

Kynast Otto Gmbh & Co. KG began in 1946 when Otto Kynast, pronounced “key-nest”, started a small hardware and household goods store in Badbergen. They began making steel tube products. The first bicycle was produced in 1950. By 1966, around the year that Otto Kynast died, they had made 1 million bicycles, and was the biggest bicycle factory in Germany. By 1985 Kynast had made 16 million bicycles. But sales slowed more and more in the 1980’s because of low cost, high quality Asian bicycle frames. Eventually Kynast was bought up by the huge conglomerate, Derby Cycles, after several bankruptcies. Read more Kynast History.

Flying Dutchman Ted Van Der Kolk

Flying Dutchman Moped and Bicycle, Inc was a company made by Ted Van Der Kolk Sr, at 509-511 E Broadway, Glendale CA 91205, one block west of city hall. Ted Sr. was the businessman and his son Ted Van Der Kolk Jr. was the mechanic.

Ted Sr. grew up in Holland (now called Netherlands). He had a moped shop there, as well as souvenir shops in the Dutch West Indies, before moving to California in 1972. He was already selling Sparta mopeds and bicycles in Holland. His shop in Glendale, just north of Los Angeles, was open from 1972 to 1991. John Cochran worked for Ted Van der Kolk Sr. for awhile, then later formed is own shop, T. and J. Inc, at 3518 Firestone Blvd, South Gate CA 90280, just south of Los Angeles. Later T and J (Ted and John) became Moped City, a few doors down, South Gate California.  Most of the Flying Dutchmans in Southern California came from those three shops. Besides teaming up with Van Der Kolk, John Cochran made one of the first moped expansion chamber exhausts, and employed Carlos Rodriquez as main mechanic at Moped City. John Cochran died in 2004. The “Flying Dutchman”, Ted Van Der Kolk, Sr lived until his late 90’s, and died in 2013. Ted Jr was alive at age 75, in 2017.

1979 black Sparta Flying Dutchman Deluxe

 

Sparta and Kynast: There are two makes of Flying Dutchman’s, Sparta (made in Holland) and Kynast (made in West Germany), pronounced “key-nest”. The Sparta Flying Dutchman models (front tank “Deluxe” aka “Buddy” and rear tank “Lucky”) are in Sparta.

Altogether about 5000 Flying Dutchmans, half Sparta and half Kynast, were imported and sold only at Southern California moped shops,  according to Ted Jr. That is why not many people outside of California have ever seen one.

All of the Kynast-made Flying Dutchman’s have the model name KML 40 on the sides of the one-piece black plastic engine cover. Their original speed was 40kph (25mph), but these US models are 30mph versions.

Euro models: The Kynast Euro models KML 40, KML 25, Bully 4000, Eurostar, and Kynast US model Flying Dutchman, share the same frame. It is apparently their own design, rather than a remake of an older design, since no other mopeds use it.  

 

 

Note that the Kynast Flying Dutchman KML 40 is different from the Dutch Airline KLM, even though they both fly with Dutch people on board.

Then and Now: At some point, the German motorcycle giant Hercules must have bought the machinery to remake the Kynast moped. Here it is 35 years later, at left, still with Sachs 504/1D one speed engine , restricted. Everything is powder coated, not chromed. It probably also has other modern amenities like sealed bearing wheels, and nylon lined cable housings.

Sachs 508 Instructions

Flying Dutchman – Ted Van Der Kolk Sr.
Sachs 508 Two Speed Instructions

This rare Sachs 508 two speed engine is not mentioned or listed in any of the common Sachs engines web pages, even in Germany. Most Sachs two speed moped engines in Europe and worldwide are manual shift. They have a left hand grip twist shifter, that says “0-1-2”. But the Sachs 508/A is fully automatic and has no shifter or shifter cable. The US requires mopeds to be fully automatic, but European countries do not, so the Sachs 508 is likely designed for the US market. It’s speculation why it is so rare and unknown, but maybe it was too late in the game. By 1980, US moped sales were much less than in 1978, the peak year of the moped boom, following the gas shortage of 1973-76.

Sachs 504 with 508 marking

Some 1978? Sachs 504’s have this 508 marking

One final note about the elusive Sachs 508. Some of the later Sachs 504/1A one speed automatic engines, said 508/ cast into the left side of the engine case, near where the start cable goes in. This suggests that maybe Sachs was trying to fit a two speed automatic transmission into the existing 504 engine case. Perhaps because that design failed, they had to re-design an entire new engine case, with the right and left sides reversed. That probably took an extra year or more, making it too late to become popular.

Throttle cable length estimation from photos

 

Kynast throttle cable: Kynast throttle cable is shorter than other Sachs throttle cables, because the frame is slightly smaller. Kynast handlebars are 2 inches closer to the engine than Sparta Lucky (rear tank). Sparta Lucky handlebars are 2 inches closer than Sparta Buddy (front tank). 

Kynast brake cables: Kynast rear brake cable has clevis clamp (exactly the same as Hercules and AMF).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


Kromag (Sears Free Spirit and JC Penney)

Contents:  1. Kromag   2. Sears Free Spirit   3. JC Penney  

 


Austria

1. Kromag

Welcome. Kromag Metallindustrie AG was an Austrian metal products company. The name comes from the metals chromium and magnesium. The logo is a metallurgist wearing a fire suit stirring a vat of molten metal with a long cane.

Kromag made the Sears Free Spirit and the J.C. Penney Pinto and Swinger. These department store mopeds were intentionally without manufacturers names or logos to hide the identity. 

Kromag is not KTM. Kraftfahrzeuge Trunkenpolz Mattighofen is KTM. The craft shop in Mattinghofen, Austria was founded in 1934 by engineer Hans Trunkenpolz. Motorcycle production began in 1954.

1978 Puch “plain” Maxi

1978 Puch Magnum XK

KTM made the Foxi Deluxe, Foxi Salzburg, and Foxi Baron. All of the Austrian frames, Puch, Kromag, and KTM are made for Puch engines, but the KTM has a Puch-to-Sachs adaptor bracket for the Sachs 504 engine.

Kromag is like Puch. They are both made out of the same ingredients, but combined in different ways. At right are the Puch models that share the same components as Sears Free Spirit or JC Penney Pinto.

2. Sears Free Spirit

In the 1970’s the famous American department store sold a line of bicycles and wheeled goods called “Free Spirit”.

In 1978-80 Sears sold three moped models, all made by Kromag in 1978. Two of the models came in three speed versions, to make a total of 7 Free Spirit versions. The bikes did not have any model names or decals, other than “Free Spirit” on the back of the seat. Over the years this has caused some to be called by the wrong name.

Free Spirit Components: All Free Spirits have the Puch E50 one-speed engine with all-aluminum-cylinder, like a “plain” Maxi. All have Bing “round” 14mm carbs (1/14/163 and 1/14/164), and Bosch 6-wire “external ignition ground” magneto (0212-024-043), and Puch electrical wiring (where the horn wires can cause the engine to not run). All have ULO 250 2-bulb tail lights, and 0.9 gallon detachable gas tanks with 40mm quarter turn gas cap, like a Magnum. All have Magura “wrap-around” controls like a “plain” Maxi. All have Magnum-type steering (headset) cups and bearings, and Magnum-type engine covers (chain guards), unlike a Maxi.

3. JC Penney

1970 Golden Pinto Mini Bike
ad from Boys Life magazine

The famous department store sold mini-cycles in the 1960’s and 70’s. In the 1970 ad the name was “Penneys” but in the 1978 ad it was “JC Penney”. So the official name changed in that period.

Pinto: A pinto is not just a horse with large white areas. One of the models Penneys sold was this Golden Pinto Mini Bike, for $159. So the name Pinto was used on mini-cycles years before it was on mopeds. Of course, the 70’s also had millions of Ford Pinto automobiles. 

A Pinto is also a 1978-79 moped, made in Austria by Kromag. Somehow both Sears and JC Penneys, competitors, were made by the same maker. Both concealed the identity, of the bike and many of the components, and re-branded them with their own name.

Swinger was the Penneys 1960’s to 70’s line of childrens bicycles, 20″ tires with banana seats.

Kromag is closely related to Puch, because much of their equipment is identical. Different parts of the 1978-79 JC Penney models are also on different Puch models, but not all at once.

Pinto components: The fork and fenders are the same as (or from) a 1978-79 Puch Maxi Sport or Sport MkII, the Leleu spoke wheels are from a 1978-79 Puch Maxi Luxe, the Puch E50 motor, Bing carburetor, Bosch magneto, Merit switches, Magura controls, ULO tail light and seat are from a 1978-79 Puch Maxi, the side covers and ULO headlight (most) are from a 1978-79 Puch Magnum.

Swinger components: The fork, fenders, Leleu spoke wheels, Puch E50 motor, Bing carburetor, Bosch magneto, Merit switches, Magura controls, ULO tail light, CEV head light (most) and seat are the same as (or from) a 1977-78 Puch Maxi. The side covers and ULO headlight (some) are from a 1978-79 Puch Magnum.

Look for these and other component parts in the separate components sections, like spokes, brakes, tires, bulbs, etc.

JC Penney Models

The Pinto (1-speed) had spoke wheels, wide rims, 2.25-17 tires, and came in safety colors, orange or yellow. 

The Pinto 2 (1-speed) had aluminum “snowflake” wheels, 2.25-17 tires, long solo seat, came in silver or black. 

Pintos were deluxe models with chrome fenders, and an all-chrome gas tank, but with the lower half painted.

Swingers were economy models with thinner rims, painted fenders, and painted gas tank. 

The Swinger 1 (1-speed) had spoke wheels, thin rims, 2.00-17 tires, no suspension, no rack, and was dark blue.

The Swinger 2 (1-speed) had spoke wheels, thin rims, 2.25-17 tires, and came in safety colors, orange or yellow.

JC Penney Speed Versions

JC Penney owners manual, selected pages

There are not any parts or service manuals for JC Penney in Myrons Mopeds library. Service and parts were obtained through JC Penney Auto Service Centers only, not from independent moped shops.

Here are 5 pages from the 36 page owners manual. The lower part is the Acceleration and Passing Ability (Inability actually) information for consumers. This is the only evidence and information about the three speed versions, 1.0 hp (20mph), 1.5 hp (25mph) and 2.0 hp (30mph).

It is easy to assume that JC Penney mopeds have the same power restriction equipment as Sears Free Spirit mopeds, since they are 90% the same. 

This will be updated or verified when proof becomes available.

While the red-silver de luxe model was equipped with a legshield as protection against the weather, the standard bike was recognizable on the blue-silver varnish.”  The all-aluminum cylinder had 7 side fins. The exhaust was on the left. Tires 2.00-17.

Cables: There were 3 cables, throttle, front brake and start. There was no rear brake hand lever or cable.

Controls: 70’s Magura (open type throttle) with threaded-bottomless brake and start cable holes.

KTM (US models)

1977-78 Foxi Baron was a US model with a Sachs 504/1A engine. It was the same as the 1977 model except for taller clamp-on handlebars. Tires 2.25-17.

The model names “Salzburg” and “Baron” were not on the bikes anywhere. Instead all three models were labeled as “Deluxe”. So only Foxi owners that had this brochure called their bikes Deluxe, Salzburg, or Baron. Every one else called their bike Foxi Deluxe, because that is what it says. So in a way, there are three kinds of Foxi Deluxe: Foxi Deluxe, Foxi Deluxe (Salzburg), Foxi Deluxe (Baron).

CimattiCimatti smallmade in Italy by Cimatti   Minarelli P1, V1, P4 engines

Cimatti C Logo

In 1937 the Olympic cyclist Marco Cimatti founded a small company in Bologna Italy that originally produced bicycles. In 1950 Cimatti changed to mopeds, and in the 1960s produced the Velocim moped, with Minarelli P1 motor, along with motorcycles and fully enclosed scooters. Marco’s son, Enrico Cervantes Cimatti expanded the business to export to the United States, France, Norway and Tunisia.

Cimatti Enrico SpA: By 1977 Cimatti only produced 50cc models, Chic, Town Bike, Twin Sport, Gran Prix XL, City Bike, and mini’s Mini Chic, Bat Boy, Bat Baby (all with tube frame, Minarelli V1 1-speed automatic engine), 86 (U-tube frame, Minarelli P4 4-speed manual shift). In 1978 they presented the Oasi, with a new pressed sheet steel frame, but still a Minarelli V1 engine. In 1980 they released the Gringo with a 4-speed Minarelli P4. A recession in the early 1980’s forced the company to close in 1984.

 


Cimatti Mopeds (US models)

dealer notebook

City Bike is the USA version of Chic. In the US, “chic” is slang for “girl”. So the name was changed.

Cimatti Ltd: The US importer/distributor was Cimatti Ltd., Berkshire Industrial Park, Bethel CT 06801. In 1978 they produced red dealer notebooks, well-made, with parts, service, policies, etc.

US model mopeds ID stickers said the maker was Cimatti Ltd (1976-79) or Cimatti Enrico SpA (1980-81).

Marina Mobili: In the early 1980’s Cimatti Ltd. became part of Marina Mobili Inc (MMI) in Moonachie New Jersey. MMI bought out most of the Italian moped US importers in the early 1980’s, like Baretta (Piccoli), Cimatti, Demm, Gitane (Testi), Malaguti, Negrini, Pacer (Italtelai) and others.

Secret Toggle Switch: Cimatti mopeds, US models, with the “bullet” type headlight (City Bike, Town Bike, Twin Sport) have a secret toggle switch under the left side of the headlight. It is for emergency use if the engine ever looses spark. If brake light wires become disconnected, like when the rear light is missing, the engine will not run. By switching from “normal brake light operation” (switch towards rear), to “no brake light” (switch toward front), the spark is restored and the engine will run, but the brake light will not operate.

Cimatti Throttle Cables: Cimatti mopeds have two different throttles. 1) the 1976-1977 Domino “wrap around” throttle, which takes a double ended throttle cable, that comes out from the bar. 2) and 3) the 1977-1979 Domino “sliding block” throttle, which takes a single ended (universal) throttle cable, that goes along the bar.

 

 

4) Cimatti carb elbow
correct length 30mm

5) Cimatti carb elbow is
30 long x 22mm high

6) This non-Cimatti elbow
is shorter than original

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Cimatti Carb Elbow: All Cimatti mopeds use the same Delorto SHA14/12 carburetor, which normally has the original 90 degree curved tube, known as the “carb elbow”, where the throttle cable enters the top of the carburetor. 4) the very low carb elbow is still almost as high as the floorboards. The double ended throttle cable is set for the length of the original carb elbow. Without the elbow the wire is too long. A new single ended (universal) throttle works with or without a carb elbow, as the length is set by the pinch bolt during installation. 5) the correct carb elbow for Cimatti shown separately. It is 30mm long and 22mm high, total. 6) a Cimatti with a not-original shorter carb elbow. Click to enlarge and notice how the elbow in picture #6 is 9mm shorter than the elbow in picture #4.

Cimatti Double Ended Throttle Cable for Wrap-Around Throttle: Housing length 37 inches, Exposed length 94mm (3 11/16″), diameter at ends 5.3mm (Barnett #MP-305) to 6.5mm (OEM).

1. Kreidler Models

Kreidler (pronounced Kr-EYE-d-lur) was founded in 1903 as “Kreidlers Metall- und Drahtwerke” (Kreidlers metal and wire factory) by Anton Kreidler. Motorcycle production began in 1951. By 1959, one third of all German motorcycles were manufactured by Kreidler. Visit the Kreidler Museum at http://www.kreidler-museum.de/

In the 1960’s and 70’s Kreidler became very successful in 50cc motorcycle road racing. With riders Hans-Georg Anscheidt, Jan de Vries, Henk van Kessel, and Eugenio Lazzarini, they were FIM World Champions in 1961, 1971, 1973, 1974, 1975, 1978, 1979, 1980, 1981, and 1982.  Those racing Kreidlers were not mopeds (except the very first one), but they did have the same size pistons: tiny. In 1974 Henk van Kessel did a lap around the Belgian Gran Prix at an average speed of 101.7mph. That is unbelievably fast. Read about 120 mph super-high-rpm 50cc road racers at  http://www.elsberg-tuning.dk/50ccroadracing.html  Now from one extreme to the other, 120 mph 50cc to 20 mph 50cc:

Mofas and Mopeds In Germany there are two kinds of mopeds:

Mofas are 25 km/h (16 mph), no licence required, minimum age 15, no passengers. German flag“Mofa” is short for motorisertes fahrrad (motorized bicycle).

Mopeds are 40 km/h (25 mph),  drivers license required (any class), minimum age 16. “Moped” is short for motor mit pedale (motor with pedals).

In the 1950’s and 60’s they used the name “Florett” for everything, motorcycles, mopeds, and mofas. From 1969 to 1982, Kreidler mofa models had the prefix MF, while moped models had prefix MP. In the 1970’s the name “Florett” was for top tank motorcycles, mostly 50cc 5-speed. Starting in 1976 the name “Flory” was used for step-thru mopeds and mofas, both automatic 2-speed and manual grip-shift 2-speed types, and “Flott” was for top-tank mopeds.

Kreidler MP 9 Flory moped was the export-to-USA version of a German-model MP 2. Other MP 2 export (non-German) versions worldwide include MP 6, MP 7, and MP 8. Some things are the same. The MP 9 air filter has “MP 8” molded into it. The MP 9 parts price list uses the term “MP 7” for those parts used only on the more restricted MP 9 models. See below “USA Speed Versions”.

Another ZA: The Kreidler two speed automatic (Zwei gäng Automatik) is like a Puch, Garelli or Tomos two speed, with two centrifugal automatic clutches, in a transmission oil bath compartment, one that gets the bike moving forward, and another that lets it shift automatically between first and second (low and high) gear, according to the rear wheel speed. Roughly speaking, below 15mph it’s in first gear and above 15mph it’s in second gear.   

Engine Service: Here is a link to the 1976 engine “Assembly Disassembly Instructions” manual.

http://projectmopedmanual.info/Manuals/Kreidler/Kreidler%20service%20manual.pdf

 

This beautiful illustration of an early 1970’s engine is from the 1976 service manual “Assembly Disassembly Instructions”. The front of the engine is facing into the page and to the left. In the views below the front is facing out of the page and to the right. So both the front and the back side of each part are shown, here or there.

’81 parts price list

’76 parts catalog

3. 1976-81 U.S. Speed Versions

The 1977 MP 9 and MP 19 owners manual says there were four speed versions offered, 17, 20, 25, and 30 mph, for different US states. But none of Myrons Mopeds’s Kreidler brochures or manuals, parts, service or owners, say specifically what parts are on each speed version. The parts catalog is only for 30 mph.

Here is what can be learned from the Kreidler of America, Inc. 1981 Parts Price List and the Kreidler Werke GMBH 1976 Catalog of Spare Parts for MP-9 USAThe carburetor size is always the same 12mm, either early metal-tip-float-needle 1/12/260, or late rubber-tip 1/12/268 which superseded it. There is no other carburetor anywhere in the 1981 USA price list. Other similar Kreidler mopeds and mofas worldwide have 10mm carburetors, such as 1/10/105 or 1/10/126. Besides there being only one carburetor, there is also only one cylinder, one piston, one head, one kind of internal gears, and one intake pipe.

So in the parts price list and catalog, only these four things are different:

Exhaust can be normal 215.23.99 with straight muffler 15.23.74B
Exhaust ca or restricted 215.23.89 with turned-up muffler 15.23.64B
Exhaust    The head pipe, rear cone, and baffle are all the same. 

Intake gasket can be small or big, Ø10 215.03.06 (MP 7) or Ø12 215.03.25 (MP 9) 

Head gasket can be thick or thin, 8.5:1 CR 215.03.30 (MP 7) or 10:1 215.03.44 (MP 9)

Rear sprocket can be big or small, 38T 265.02.12 or 36T 265.02.11 or 36T 265.02.11A

Assuming that the equipment that came on the bikes was in the price list, the speed version differences can be guessed. The guesses are shaded light grey.

30 mph has normal exhaust, big intake gasket, thin head gasket, small rear sprocket

25 mph has restricted exhaust, big intake gasket, thin head gasket, small rear sprocket
25 mphh or normal exhaust, small intake gasket, thick head gasket, small rear sprocket

20 mph has restricted exhaust, small intake gasket, thick head gasket, small rear sprocket

17 mph has restricted exhaust, small intake gasket, thick head gasket, big rear sprocket

All of the other parts on the bike are the same for all speed versions.

The swing arm bushings #2, one on each side, often wear out. The loose swingarm pivot then causes some rear-wheel steering, which makes the bike wobble or weave. There are no replacements available, so far. Here are some dimensions (mm):

swing arm inner space is 81.5, frame outer is 76.0, pivot bolt is 13.95

original bushing: 14.2 ID, 17.35 OD, with a lip 22 by 2.5,     brass replacement: 14.1 ID, 17.1 OD

A tube 14.2 x 17 x 76.5, plus two washers 14.2 x 2.5 would be a simpler, but maybe less precise substitute.

The original material is a soft plastic. It squishes or deforms under heavy load. When installed the soft bushing shrinks from 14.2 x 17.35, to 14.0 x 17.0. A hard material like brass would not shrink. That’s why brass replacement bushings need to be slightly smaller than the originals.

Early History

(from an anonymous 1971 American motorcycle book)

Yamaha Motor Company, Ltd. was established in 1955 as a small subsidiary of Nippon Gakki, Ltd., the world’s largest piano manufacturer. The firms entrance into the field of motorcycle production was hardly considered a threat by the giants of the industry, but after the first model was introduced and marketed later that same year, they quickly realized that Yamaha would soon be a formidable competitor.

1955 Yamaha YA-1

The first Yamaha was designated YA-1 and dubbed the “Red Dragonfly”. It was styled after the famous BMW and was powered by a single cylinder 125cc two stroke engine. This first effort was such a success that by 1959, the company was offering sports and utility models in 125, 175, and 250cc displacements. In 1960, their phenomenal growth continued, multiplying their original investment nearly thirty times and expanding their product line to include mopeds, boats, and outboard motors.

By that time, Asian export market had already proven very profitable, but it wasn’t until the early-to-mid-1960’s that foreign sales really began to soar: America discovered the Japanese motorcycle and suddenly the demand for them became overwhelming.

The motorcycle industry’s heated competition for this new market was eventually carried to the European Grand Prix circuit, where Yamaha and their rivals locked horns in a furious racing and development battle. Factory engineers worked frantically to provide faster and more powerful machines for the Grand Prix effort, and as a result, two-stroke motorcycle technology advanced by leaps and bounds. The Yamaha racing team won five world championships.

After development and thorough testing the products of this racing program were employed on production machines: mainly, the rotary valve in 1961, Autolube oil injection in 1963 and the five-port (twin intake port) cylinder in 1968, and the reed valve in 1973.

Meanwhile Yamaha Motor Company, Ltd. continued to grow – building nine new plants in Japan, Taiwan, Mexico, Costa Rica, Equador, and Guatemala. In addition to achievement awards in motorcycle engineering, the company also received great acclaim for their design of the Toyota 2000 GT in 1966, and the introduction of Yamaha snowmobiles in 1968.

Most recently, the firm has built a new test facility in Japan and introduced a complete line of off-road Enduro and Motocross motorcycles. They have also expanded their street motorcycle offering by applying their Toyota 2000 GT experience to the construction of Yamaha’s first four stroke model-the 1970-1971 XS1.

The Yamaha trademark of three crossed tuning forks has now become a familiar sight all over the world and serves as a subtle reminder of the firm’s musical origin. Their motorcycle products currently range from the 1971 58cc Mini-Enduro to racing’s “dynamic duo”, the 1971 250cc TD and 350cc TR road racers. There is a model to suit every enthusiast and each one reflects, as Yamahas always have, the ever-growing interests of the motorcycling public. 

 


Yamaha (US models) 1962-1992

Here are listed all the vintage Yamaha motorcycle and scooter models that sold new in the USA. Worldwide there are many more Yamaha models. Some of those are the same as US models, and some are different. Here the focus is on the smaller 50-80cc Yamahas that are like mopeds. Many of those small Yamahas are also shown in photos and explained.

1969 saw new models AT1 (electric start), CT1, L5T (electric start and two-range, 3-speed transmission. The YA1SC became the AS2C and the YG5T became the G5S (without electric starting). The DS5 of 1967 evolved into the DS6C (without electric start). The YR2C became the newly styled R3. DT1 became DT1B. The five-port cylinder design was now used on all of the piston-port (piston-controlled induction) engines. Rotary (disc) valve engines do not have any intake ports in the cylinder at all, so the new split intake port design did not apply to them.

1972 saw the introduction of reed valve induction on the AT2, CT2, DT2, RT2, and the new LT2 and U7E. The HS1 was enlarged to 97cc, restyled and designated LS2. The DS6 was completely revamped and designated DS7. The JT1 Mini Enduro was made available in either street trim (JT2L) or off-road trim (JT2M). The XS1 was fitted with a front disc brake and electric starting, and re-designated XS2.

1972 Yamaha U7E

1969 to 1972 Yamaha model names (except U5 and U7) had the engine size (cc) in the first letter J=60, G=80, H=90, L=100, A=125, C=175 or 200, D=250, R=350 or 360, X=650, followed by the bike type T=Trail, S=Street, M=Motocross.

It’s reed valves for everyone! Small or big, single or twin, come and get your free 20% more torque! Soon reed valves were on all two-stroke Yamahas. Their side badges proudly said “Torque Induction”. In the following few years Suzuki, Kawasaki and most other two-stroke motorcycles switched to reed valve induction.

In 1973 the G7S, DT2, DS7, R5C were replaced by GT1, DT3, RD250, RD350 with reed valve cylinders and other improvements. 

1973 was the beginning of standardized format model names, where the first two or more digits are letters that mean what model type, followed by two or more digits with numbers that mean what size engine.

1974 was the “end of confusion” when all models names were standardized. RD means Street, GT means Enduro, DT means Dual Purpose, TY means Trials, IT means Off Road, MX means Motocross, YZ means Motocross Racer, TZ means Road Racer, TX or XS means Street 4-stroke. The last 1 or 2 digits are the year and version. For the year, 1974 is A, 75 is B, 76 is C, and so on. Letters that might be confusing are skipped. For 49-state and 50-state models, the version digit is blank. For California models it is C.

In this manner, the bike type, size and year are easy to see from the model name.

In 1979 the Yamahopper QT50 was introduced. Here is a excellent article about the cutie on mopedarmy.comHere is the QT50 Service Manual at QT50.net. That is where “all” QT50 info, love and links are kept.

The Yamaha QT50 is the same design as Honda NC50 and Suzuki FA50. All three ultralights are similar, zippy, well made, and easy to ride.

New for 1981 is the little kids Yamaha. The PW50 Y-Zinger has the same engine and shaft-drive as QT50. That’s right, shaft drive! These are the only (common) 50cc motorcycles with shaft drive.

Honda vintage

Welcome to Honda moped parts and info. There is more info here than parts for sale. Most Honda Parts for sale are in the Parts by Type menu. Honda mopeds and the parts for them were only sold through Honda motorcycle dealerships. So the small shops that sold parts for European mopeds never did have genuine Honda parts in their inventories.

Myrons carries Honda parts from four sources. 1) aftermarket parts like brake shoes, spokes, tires, tubes, batteries, bulbs, petcocks, bearings, seals, hardware, spark plugs, etc, 2) some original used Honda parts from a few stripped out used bikes, mostly NC50. 3) Honda-Japan compatible parts from Taiwan-made Honda remake mopeds.  4) Honda-Belgium compatible parts from other European made mopeds.

Honda Belgium: Honda expanded it’s production into Belgium in the mid 1960’s, after the successful Honda 50 Cub sold well worldwide. Around 1975, when parts were also produced in Netherlands and Luxemburg, the name changed from Honda Belgium to Honda Benelux (for Belgium, Netherlands, Luxemburg). Since the 1950’s Europe had a demand for pedal-assist mopeds. 

Honda Benelux mopeds: Honda Benelux produced the P50 pedal moped from 1966 to 68. They made the PC50 moped from 1969 to 77. See the Wikipedia Honda P50, and Wikipedia Honda PC50 articles. Honda Benelux also produced the PF50 and PS50 families. The successor to the PC50 four-stroke 1-speed moped was the PA50 two-stroke variable speed, with way more take off and hill climbing power. The PA50 was produced by Honda Benelux from 1976 to ’91.

These are condensed from the Honda Identification Guide 1959-2000. Over 110cc models are excluded. Pure off road and 3 or 4-wheeled models are also excluded.

The pedal-assist models that U.S. Honda dealers sold were the P50, PC50, and PA50. The two-stroke Honda PA50 moped is made in Belgium, and is covered in the Honda Benelux section. The 4-stroke P50 and PC50 mopeds were only sold one or two years each, and are not as common in the US as they were in Canada and Europe. The US motorcycle laws were not favorable to pedal-assist mopeds (motorized bicycles) until 1976.

Honda made many step-thru models that were like mopeds. They had foot shift 3-speed 4-stroke engines, but no manual clutch. So they were easy and well mannered compared with the roaring two strokes and bigger bikes. Honda revolutionized transportation worldwide with the C70 step-thru motorcycle, and set a Guiness World Record for the most motorcycles ever made of the same model. Ordinary poor people could go places cheaply reliably and safely on a Honda.

In the next few years after 1984, for street bikes below 120cc, Honda only made scooters. Scooters have a rear engine, and many things different from mopeds. The only parts for 49cc scooters that Myrons might have are brake shoes, spark plugs, batteries, mirrors, and other things, but not much else.

In 1985 Honda came out with the Elite line of four stroke scooters, with continuously variable automatic transmissions. Once again forward-looking Honda revolutionized transportation. Before the Honda Elite there was no such thing as a 4-stroke scooter. Five years later, in 1990 Japanese scooters (Honda and Yamaha) were fairly common in US cities. Twenty five years later, in 2010, Chinese four-stroke scooters were as common as motorcycles on American city streets.

Honda PC50 Parts:

Tires: front 2-ply 2.00 – 19, rear 4-ply 2.25 – 19

Some of the parts on an early 1970’s PC50 are found on late 1970’s Taiwan mopeds that “copied” Honda. Myrons Mopeds has these PC50 items:

Engine parts 90% the same as Indian. See Parts/By Brand/Indian

Hubs & 80mm brakes 80% the same as  Angel

Cantilever Fork & suction cup solo seat 80% the same as Angel

Levers/switches 80% the same as Indian/Angel/General, maybe

Cables and other things might also be the same.

Tail light looks like Angel tail light

 

 


4. Honda NC50, NA50, NU50

Before the scooter craze of the late 1980’s, and during the end of the moped craze of the late 1970’s, Honda offered an ultralight kickstart moped, without pedals but still speed limited to 30mph. Thousands of NC50 Express and NA50 Express II mopeds were sold in the US, especially in states that did not require drivers licenses. Honda ran magazine ads showing how silly and ridiculous the obsolete pedal-assist mopeds were, and how a Honda Express would zip by them on the uphills.

Honda Express Parts:

Gas tank: The gas tank and oil injection tank are one unit. Often the wall between them leaks, allowing gas to get into the oil and oil to get into the gas. The simplest fix is to drain the oil tank and block off the supply line. Then use pre-mix 50:1 gas and oil.

Gas valve: M14-1.0 spigot down, see Gas Valves

Gas cap: 30mm quarter-turn, see Gas Caps

Carburetor: Keihin 11.5 mm, see Keihin where there are many photos, illustrations, and much information, as well as Honda Express carburetor parts for sale.

5. Honda PA50 Hobbit/Camino

1977 Honda Hobbit Magazine Ad

The Honda PA50 pedal moped was produced at Honda Benelux from 1976 to 1991. The PA50 was called Camino in Europe, and Hobbit in the US. The PA50 Hobbit was sold in the US from 1978 to 1983. See the Wikipedia Honda PA50 article for more. Honda PA50 parts were originally only sold at Honda motorcycle dealerships, never at independent moped shops. Some components are interchangeable, or available for, or from, other European moped brands.

Solex Parts

May 27, 2012

La biciclette qui roule toute seule!

Solex began in 1905, as two young French engineers, Maurice Goudard and Marcel Mennesson, producing engine parts. They made radiators, mostly for large trucks and buses, before and during World War 1. After the war, Solex shifted from radiators to making carburetors.

Solex carburetors became the company’s most famous product, used on many European automobiles for decades. They also made lots of other things, like excellent micrometers.

1940 prototype

VeloSolex (SolexBike) was developed during WWII while France was occupied by Germany. In 1940, after decades of interest in “bicycles with emergency engines”, the first front engine prototype was unveiled.

In 1946, after 5 years of testing, the humble hybrid went into production.

Solex 3300 tail light

’59-66 tail light

The VeloSolex 3800 had reverse brake levers and a non-self-closing twist throttle. Most had Seima tail lights with no brake light. Only some US and Canada models had Maly tail lights with a separate brake light on top.

All 3800 motors from May 1966 to 1975 had an ID badge that says 1966. That was the year of the design approval, not the year it was made. 

By 1967 4 million VeloSolex’s were sold. Improvements were made year after year. The Solex motor bike became a household item in France and many parts of Europe.

1975 Renault: In 1974 Velosolex sold part of their production facility and rights to Renault. Here is a Renault 5000 and a Renault Tenor. But Renault sold the production to Motobecane (MB), in Dec 1974, after only a month.

Velosolex
1975-82 Motobecane (MB): Motobecane kept the old chrome VeloSolex side stickers until late 1977. Here is a 1977 Motobecane 50V, a 1977-80 Motobecane S 3800 and Motobecane 5000. At the same time VeloSolex continued to produce mostly domestic S 3800s, up to 1986.

Solex
1983-88 MBK: Motobecane was bought out by Yamaha in 1983, restructured and renamed MBK. The 1986-88 MBK S 3800 stickers only said Solex, in script.

Solex re-makes: The 1999-05 Solex 3800 was made by Impex in Hungary and made well. It was an exact copy of a 1986-88 MBK Solex 3800. US versions had different switches and lights. More about that later…   The other Solex re-makes were Chinese made.

Solex 62254 early & late

The Solex fuel pump membrane and maybe the plastic seats and balls are needed often to replace deteriorated 30-50 year old ones. It’s easier to replace the entire pump, membrane, and membrane seat, but more costly. When the top cap or post is unscrewed, the top check ball easily falls out and gets lost. Often a not working fuel pump only needs a ball, or a new membrane. The pump check balls can be tested by blowing and sucking through a piece of small rubber hose or fuel line. The lower line only blows and does not suck. The upper line only sucks and does not blow.

After the take-over of VeloSolex by Motobecane in 1974,

Yellow – main power from stator to switch paddle (power for the lighting exits the stator via the serrated stud; there is no wire connection between the serrated stud and the switch. The switch paddle must contact the serrated stud when the switch lever is turned counter-clockwise)

Red – power from headlight switch paddle, through spring and bronze strip, to headlight.

Blue – power from bronze strip to tail light wire

Green – ground (wire from headlight to fuel pump screw)

*Note: the 1966-72 S 3800 USA (and the S 3300) is similar, but instead of a ground wire, there is a ground tab mounted on the front of the fuel pump. The tip of the bulb touches the tab.
