1957 Peugeot
Re: 1957 Peugeot
Pics?
Re: 1957 Peugeot
Workin' on that. Hopefully later today
Re: 1957 Peugeot
I'd say it's a Peugeot BB1v as Peugeot didn't have a huge range of models in '57.
Re: 1957 Peugeot
Just saw a post from Aug 2005 in this forum. Titled 1957 Peugeot moped help. Decent pics. Same model.
Re: 1957 Peugeot
Post pics so folks can let you know what favour of BB1v it is...
Re: 1957 Peugeot
First pic . Not too good at this. Anyone can tell me more about it. I believe it's a 57 but dont know model or specifics . Need carb, exhaust and cosmetic stuff. Thanks in advance
Re: 1957 Peugeot
Looks awkward to sit in that position
Re: 1957 Peugeot
Is this the one that's listed in Allentown PA CL ? It caught my attention cuz it ain't real far from me
Re: 1957 Peugeot
I didn't see it there, but it might have been. It was near that zip code. It's a little rough, but very cool. I'm still not sure exactly what it is. 1957 I'm sure or. I think it's a bb. Not sure bb what. Needs carb and exhaust., etc. Sitll looking for help s
and advice.
Re: 1957 Peugeot

Re: 1957 Peugeot
Most of a Mikuni carb. No air filter or choke. Not a working carb. There is no exhaust. Trying to keep it as stock as possible. Gurtner carb was stock?
Re: 1957 Peugeot
Yes - the BB1 came with a Gurtner D10D (reg521 or reg560) in the standard version and the restricted speed had a D8D reg614
The BB1 is the grandfather to the Pug 101/102 motor and lots of interchange of parts will make you smile.
Re: 1957 Peugeot
I have this same year/model that I am bringing back to life. The carb has been changed to an encarwi A3 (1970's vintage). It won't take much to make this completely original again so I'm looking for the elusive parts.
Re: 1957 Peugeot
I just restored one of these. I got tank decals on the way if you are interested. You can get a non variated clutch assembly off of treats. It took ALOT to get it to work. SHA 15.15 was a little tight but did fit on the intake.
Re: 1957 Peugeot
Trying to think of anything useful to tell you.
You can find the taillight assembly on french ebay if you are vigilante. Should be a catalux 7 by Sobities.
The handlebar levers are kept at an awkward angle with pins. You can drill new holes for the pins so the levers are more comfortable.
If you still have plastic needle bearings in the clutch and driven pulley, its easy to swap for modern caged needle bearings.
Bearings and seals in the engine are the same as 102, 103 bearings and seals.
Got a new belt at the local tractor supply.
Thats sick you still have the covers. Wax and claybar will bring a lot of that blue back.
Re: 1957 Peugeot
Did they use the same carb on the BB104? If yes I may have one for you complete
Re: 1957 Peugeot
sick bike, and rebel moby never ceases to impress
