Negrini and Pacer dealer pictures + Hi-res Morini and V1 engine diagrams!

 So I bought a ton of dealer items off ebay and have been having a ton of fun organizing it all. Ive been thumbing through some literature and finding some cool stuff. I mostly have Minarelli, Morini, Sebring, and (all) Puch parts manuals. I will be uploading some pages from the Puch manuals that cover weird stuff that Im not sure there is much info about online. Like autostart E50s and Puch A.D. diagrams. If you are anything like me, you appreciate a nice hi-res exploded diagram of an engine. Especially when you get an engine that's in a box :)! Do you take engines apart sometime and then dont put them back together for 2 years??!!! This is perfect for you!!! So here are are diagrams of some common Morini moped engines M1, MO-1, MO-2, M101, and bonus S52K. As well as a Minarelli V1 diagram as well. FYI save the images or open them in another window to see how large they actually are. You can zoom in a whole bunch and its rad!

 Beaut!

Ladies!!!!

Pacer Super Sport: Ive always loved the frame design on these and G3s.

 Just moved out of the Castle to Bridgeport, LOOKING FORWARD TO MOVING MY MOVIES! One backpack at a time.

Nachos and Moby crap.

Dual variated Peugeot swingarm, cool.

 Cleaning mopeds is so fun.

 Love Cimattis.

 Brindy our new shop dog.

 MCR's GYSR was cool. Thom and Tony played vids a lot.

 Tony stepped in to help on a v1 rebuild.

 They have a very cool shop, this is the basement.

 Blk Blk freaks talking about nothing.

 Super rad Rizzato engine.

 Left: Stock Derbi Piston Port cylinder. Right: Mofast Derbi Pision Port kit. Thanks Treats Willie!! This is going on my Laguna.

 So stoked to have a Mofast kit, I love old stuff. If anyone has any Mofast kits or pipes, let me know.

Morini Brake Lights, V1 porting Success, stock Derbi tuning, and a few photos.

Busy week of getting stupid on mopeds! Found out some things I didnt know which is always cool. I've been drilling out a ton of Dellorto Sha 14:12 carbs to 15mm and its been real fun. I can safely say I've mastered it.  But I have read of them being drilled to 15.5mm or 16mm so I'll graduate to that soon enough. Been riding all my bikes a ton and trying to get them to mes sup which I am very good at doing. drilled my 12:12 to 15mm on the variant sport and matched the intake. Then took 3 weights out the variator, the low and mid is pretty insane for a stock cylinder... BUT of course it wont variate all the way. haha so I'm gonna have to add some more weight. I discovered a new tool to love and here are some stupid photos.

Ever think your brake wiring is hooked up properly and yet your Italian bike still dies a second after you pull the brake levers? Well you may have the wrong voltage bulbs in and think it will be fine. it isnt. Too high of voltage will pull just enough juice away from the coil to kill your engine. PS pics are of a Morini M01 engine on an Andiamo.

 I used to think "yeajust use a12 volt because it wont blow out" I was being dumb.

HEY SPAIN!

 Bought a flatreed center stand for a Derbi ds50 and had to extend it. It's now painted black and doesnt look so ghetto.

 Damen st burnt Church.

 "Yea I just kept riding on it man, can you fix this?"

 Alright! The Pepi rides again. The port job I did has paid off netting a 6 mph gain from 28 mph to a whopping 34 mph. It's wrapping out so high with that dumb gearing hahah. I'm planning to drill the carb and intake to 15mm soonish and see wheat else I can squeeze out of it. :) stoked!

 Round 2 Hercules tank flush. I'm using vinegar because I am poor.

 So I just realized that this 1 1/4th (roughly 32mm) socket fits on everything!!!!! I'm using the shit out of it. Derbi triple tree nut.

 Derbi Laguna shock top nutterz

fits HPI rotor!!

 Also fits the inside nut holding the whole pug varo together, you know the one that is recessed and is hard as shit to get a crescent wrench on.

 Treats gear teaser!

We got a sweet new dog at the castle, his name is Wiley, if you see him you should pet him.

V1 piston gone wild, I hate buses, and shitty porting.

So yesterday I'm absolutely blazing the streets on my stock pepi, it was so nice out so may girls were waving at me (none). All of a sudden I feel this kind of seize thing... and not after like a huge straight away or anything, it's like a block after a stop sign. But it starts right up and goes another few blocks and then dies for good.  So I only have a shitty rope lock thing cause I assumed I would lock it up in front of MOPED while I worked. I got kind of pissed cause I hit my knee on the killswitch trying to pedal it, but I played it cool for all the ladies on the streets. Isn't it funny how sometimes when you have moped problems you feel like everyone around is watching you? Which they probably are, yea they totally are. How about when that good ole boy comes up and is like "do you have gas in it?" REALLY?!? No sir the sole thing that makes this little dumb motorbike I ride RUN AND FUNCTION is totally what I havent thought of yet. Thank you for your expert analysis sir, you can go back to selling bootleg t-shirts now. Now IF my moped brand was "Tommy Hilfingers" then maybe I would consider his diagnosis, but this moped is from Italy and not Virginia.

 So I lock up my bike as close to the street as possible to ward off theft and grab a snickers to cool me out. Well now I'm 15 blocks from the train station and I realize that I have to take the bus. I hate the bus and have never taken it. Also I have no smart phone to tell me anything. But I ask a girl about the bus and she sets me straight, then asks "whats wrong with your scooter?" I told her that I built it out of scraps and was working out the kinks cause you know I didn't wanna look bad. hahaha. She explains how she wants a ruckus and I cant stop thinking about how she looks like the lead singer of KITTIE.

 She busts out some good questions about moped though, such as: Do they run off of diesel? and why didnt you just pedal it to work? It was hard to explain that when pedaling a Minarelli my cadence would be out of control and I would surely pass out. The bus was ok but I was kinda bummed I didn't see like a bum shit his pants or epic beard man knock somebody out. RANT.

Got home and I found this.... Dented skirt? maybe I dropped it when I had it off the engine? The Lord works in mysterious ways I guess.

 Looks like a pile of shit.

So I decided to do some porting. I widened the Exhaust 2mm on each side and raised it 1.5mm. You can kind of tell in the photos. Also I chopped 1mm off the intake piston skirt. SHAWTY

 Before ^^^

 After ^^^

I rode it after the porting and the performance seems to be very similar to stock. I went to the BP and bought some Pepsis so maybe they were weighing me down!? hahah. It idles fine and Ill test it more in the next few days and update my findings. Stoked to be back on the road on the pepi, ripping and tearing dicks in the dirt.
