1977 Gitane Champion Super Veloce Sports Moped | Shed Find in 4k | Will It Start?

[@1976PEZZA]

What a result! Baffles missing..good! They were always the first things to dispose off to get an extra .5mph out of a FS1E😀

[@fanticman]

A great result yes, been told I should have looked a bit happier though when I was 'well pleased' that it did start!

It would probably pass an MOT as well! Going to be a smashing little bike when you've finished with it.

[@fanticman]

Passing an MOT right now is maybe stretching it a bit but not far off! Of course it's MOT/Tax exempt as an historic vehicle in the UK. Front brake master cylinder is seized (they nearly always are), currently having a new swinging arm spindle made (they are often rusted in place and snap when undone), I've already got a 'new old stock' rear light and number plate bracket to fit. The period tyres have loads of tread and hold air. Speedo and rev counter both function correctly (often the speedo drive is seized). So, yes......looks like a good 'un. Just need to find a seat now.

Looks like you might be a busy guy!!! For a bit at least.

[@fanticman]

For a few months most likely!
