Gleaming aluminum finish, and comes with the real deal Gilardoni piston as well. This kit is best paired with a 24mm Mikuni Flatslide. This is from a fresh run of kits, so none of that NOS stuff you are used to. If you want a kit larger than 70cc, you will need to get boring and welding done. We recommend port matching, but sometimes you just don't feel like it. If you get a kit 70cc or smaller, you can just bolt up and go. If you want to go with the whole shebang, grab a cylinder kit, performance exhaust, and carb. Or if you are on a budget, grab the 15mm Bing Clone. We just recommend getting the 15mm Bing, which will mount just like your stock one. Be sure to upjet a bit on your carburetor, for example, if you have a #56 jet, buy a #58 and #60. If you are looking to get your bike going a bit faster, the easiest way would be to get an expansion chamber. Or if you are over setting breaker points grab a CDI here. If that doesnt do it, grab Points here, and Condensers here. Puch uses Bing carbs, so if you need parts for them, grab them here, or grab a new carb here: If your moped is lacking spark, change your sparkplug. Most Puch mopeds have 17in tires, so grab those here, and tubes for them here. If you want us to do it, we can! For Puch ZA50, bearings, seals, and gaskets. If you are rebuilding your E50 motor, you will need crank bearings, mainshaft bearings, seals and gaskets. Next would be cables, we have a cable set here for E50, and a cable set here for Puch mopeds with ZA50. Puch Maxi, or Magnum style, or the third style that is great for Pinto, Freespirit, and other tube framed Puch mopeds. Some super common parts you will need are fuel petcocks. Look at the pictures listed, and figure out what you need. Puch has two main engine types, Puch E50, and Puch ZA50. The most popular model is a Maxi, and then the Magnum. Re-badged Cushman scooters were sold by them from 1948 until 1960.Puch parts are mostly interchangeable. Re-badged Vespas were sold by Sears between 19. Puch mopeds, scooters and motorcycles were marketed as such in the USA from 1954 until 1969. Here are 2 photos of a Puch Sears Allstate, showing ‘Allstate’ on its badge they switched to a ‘Sears’ badge in 1967. This model of Puch was also sold in the USA, where it was re-branded a ‘Sears Allstate.’ Sears also re-sold Vespa and Cushman scooters in the same way.
The fifties scooter craze blurred the model categories once again with mopeds that may also be scooters – or a ‘scooterette’ as the Cheetah was described. If you click on you can observe many examples of the ‘is-it-a-moped-or-is-it-a-cyclemotor?’ debate. However, it’s difficult to decide where the ‘cyclemotor’ ends and the ‘moped’ begins the French machines of the early 1950’s in particular could be considered either. Puch enthusiasts consider that it was the first proper production moped. The first Puch moped in the fifties was the ‘Steyr-Daimler-Puch MS 50,’ known as ‘baby-Puch’ because of its fragile and small body. My 1962 Puch Nomad MS 50 VD moped is pictured below as comparison you’ll see that they are indeed of very similar design. In 1962 the Austrian company Puch offered two models in the UK, the more upmarket 59cc Cheetah ‘Scooterette’ which sold for £99 17/- 6d, and the bog-standard 50cc MS 50 Nomad for £82 10/. But it is undoubtedly a charming example of that era of the late 1950’s/ early 1960’s before the Japanese invasion – when scooters were all the rage and mopeds and small motorcycles grew bodywork and legshields to give them scooter-style looks. My 1961 Cheetah does not exactly speed along with quite the same velocity as its animal namesake. I also particularly like original paintwork and dealer transfers. Especially panniers and windscreen on a baby scooter.
