Peugeot BB1 CT and trailer

Just hit the fast forward and jump forward in time since the last post and check out the finished pair - trailer and Peugeot. The Pug still needs a rear fender though...

Something is afoot...

I am feeling very lucky after culling this collection of fine pieces from the dumpster at the auction... Crazy ideas will be put into reality soon...

Crazy Fast Cady

Humble beginnings of the Cady Speedster...
The bike was given to me as a challenge
project to see if there was anything I
could do with her to save her...
There were no forks on the frame and she 
had been accidented on a farm and run over 
by equipment... 
...as this allowed carte blanche I decided it 
might be a good plan to try to fit a AV7 to
the tiny frame.
Spy pictures of the lower counter spring
rather than a solid mount so there would
always be tension on the belt with the Dimoby...
...and perhaps allow later fitting of a variator...
Upper mount I fabricated temporary plates 
to adapt the upper motor mounting point of
the AV7 to the  frame without major 
modifications... in case the project needed
more R&D (or perhaps the motor was too much)
It turned out to be very BLASTY fun...
Front forks are from a 50V which fit with 
no modification at all.
