Description

I've been riding it every summer for years. It starts up immediately. The magneto coil was renewed about 30 years ago at PASCAL in Paris (never any problems with starting or ignition). The frame was completely rebuilt (electrolytic bath, then epoxy resin coating in the oven). Functional lighting – belt-driven generator. Tank repainted. The cork clutch renewed and in very good condition (no slipping). Electrical wiring redone in cloth (all purchased from Chambrier).

The motorcycle belonged to a motorcycle dealer from the early 1900s who kept three rather special motorcycles, as I learned from his son in 1990, and it was stored with three other motorcycles. You can find a photo showing the electrolytic stripping of the paint, before the entire frame and metal parts were painted in Saint-Raphaël at high temperatures in the oven. PRECISION: THE MOTORCYCLE HAS AN ENGINE FROM THE AUTOMOTO BRAND.
