Description
1974 Puch MS50D, 3-Speed, 2-Stroke Motorcycle, Moped.
Tax and MOT exempt.
These are quality built mopeds made in Austria.
It's a fan-cooled model, with lovely castings.
It starts easily, and runs well.
I've stripped and cleaned both brakes and hubs, including the speedometer drive; as well as general servicing, which includes new plug, HT lead, transmission oil change (30 grade).
It has new high quality sprockets (German Esjot brand), and a new Regina chain.
The wiring is original and not messed with, and corresponds to the factory wiring diagram. I cleaned all the connectors, and can confirm the lights and original horn ( which I sourced ), work correctly. The horn in the photo has been replaced with an original.
The gears select well by a twistgrip control. It possibly needs a new clutch pull-rod (slightly noisy). It doesn't affect the selection etc. These rods are readily available from Germany/ Netherlands.
It has new toolbox locks and keys.
The green paintwork is all original; with the cream areas having been repainted at some time. No nasty bodges have been covered over.
During my ownership, I've acquired a Haynes manual, both parts books, factory data sheet, and an original owner's handbook.
These; plus a complete, genuine exhaust system, gasket set, contact points, flywheel extractor, and all removed parts are included in the sale.
These mopeds are lightweight (easy to move by ageing bodies),
and just a bit of fun.
It would easily load into an estate car, small van, by preferably removing the pedals.
Viewing is available at any time. I'm in east Kent.
I'm open to sensible offers. Thank you for looking.
