Re: uploaded a photo:puch
They showed up great
Re: uploaded a photo:puch
aye a just found them lol so whats the script with this bike do you know anything about them
Re: uploaded a photo:puch
thats a puch rough rider. we didnt get them in america, even though they show up in our catalogs. its similar to a magnum X. they were supposed to be 3-speed automatics, but im pretty sure thats just a single speed. kickstart E50. tons of parts available for those engines.
heres a pic of what that would have looked like new:
Re: uploaded a photo:puch
i love how in the 80s they could put "TURBO" on anything, even if it obviously wasnt turbocharged.
Re: uploaded a photo:puch
i knew it but every time i searched for a rough rider i could never get any info on the bike so i was just starting asume it was a magnum x cause of the simularties but thanks for that mate
Re: uploaded a photo:puch
no problem, they are pretty similar, same engine, carb and pipe. 17mm bing on a kickstart E50.
i think the wheels might be a different size, different tank and seat...no fork-mounted speedometer.
personally i think theyre a little cooler than the magnum X. nice find!
Re: uploaded a photo:puch
how much are one of these today do you know
Re: uploaded a photo:puch
ehh, i can only go by magnum X pricing, but really its not set in stone or anything, magnum X's go for anywhere from $0-500ish if theyre really nice. they arent super valuable, but people want them.
Re: uploaded a photo:puch
ah i see i know that people want to get there hands them thats why i asked you about the price but for now i just want to restore the bike keep it as my little project al post more pics when its looking good iv just got to find out why it want spark now i think its the lightning coyle or just the coyle duno but cheers again for that am off the noo
Re: uploaded a photo:puch

Re: uploaded a photo:puch
