excelente restauracion felicitaciones desde colombia una pregunta a que empresa pidio las calcas o calcomanias gracias

You are very lucky to have all those Coffee equipment.. i am so happy to see yours and share to us

Great refinishing job and great video! You have inspired me to refinish my grandparent's scale. It is identical. Perhaps you could let me know how you refinished the white metal trims. Yours is so shiny. I have tried a few things like scrubbing with a baking soda and vinegar solution....bar keepers friend...but it lacks the same luster. Thanks.

Great video and great job on the refinishing! You have inspired me to finally tackle my grandparent's scale....it is identical. Do you have any suggestions for how best to clean/polish the white metal trim? Yours is so shiny. I have tried many things including scrubbing with a baking soda, vinegar and dawn detergent solution with a nail brush....bar keeper's friend....but it lacks the same luster. Thankyou!

Tenho uma desta

I read that those engines were hard to start, were they?

THE BLOKE WHO USED TO COME AND SHARPEN OUR GARDEN SHEERS AND LAWNMOWER BLADES HAD ONE, HE USED TO HAVE A STAND ON THE BACK WHEEL AND HE CONNECTED THE DRIVESHAFT WITH A RUBBER BELT TO A SHARPENING STONE THAT HE USED TO SHARPEN THE BLADES WITH, I've never seen a crank and connecting rod like that before,

For the life of me i cant understand why you invest money in a rust remover but don't give it a chance to work at all. I'm not at all surprised that several skrews have been torn off.

Que capricho! Realmente lindo! Parabéns pelo distinto trabalho! Agora quero costurar nesta máquina bela.

Bravo

No he visto que hayas puesto la junta del cilindro y tampoco la de la culata del motor.

I have one of these but it's missing a few parts. I found it at an antique shop in Kansas and something drew me to it lol. I was a poor college student but I snatched it up. I need to get the gears, shafts, and redo the vice face plates but this is the best video I've found on it. I was excited to see it. Thank you for the journey.

Awesome job. Love it.

Really enjoy your videos! You are amazing! Question, do you sell your restorations or,keep? Thanks!

My neighbor gave one like this in very rough shape. I am working on it restoring the attachments, and cleaning it as much ss possible.

Wonderful work 😍😍😍

1967 my first bike i love it thx

🧐excuiset.

My french girlfriend had one of these in Paris 1975, used it for many years to commute daily to university ....etc

In the late 80's I bought two Solex 2500 (one running, one almost complete, as parts donnor) for 20 bucks. Drove one a few months and then sold all for 50 bucks. Wasn't a bad deal, back then. Meanwhile usable Solex change hands sometimes above 2k.

I have one of these engines in a bucket somewhere, it has a swirl type piston and head, externally it looks the same as yours

Last shot: unforgettable...!

No! Need a video of you riding it.

Very interesting video, Thanks for sharing.

Ace años busco una para restaurar me gusta mucho

👍 Great job Richard; it works really well-in fact it works a lot better, or with less effort than I though it would. As a bonus, it almost looks as nice as the "High-tech dashboard" too-that was pretty funny. God bless.

I bought (same price as a 4 speed bike) mine- brand new in Paris in 1966, rode it to Spain, petrol problems with Spanish fuel, walked it from Barcelona - up to Perpignan (where I could find a shop to fix it), along the Med to Genoa, then north to Turin and then I had to walk it up to the tunnel at Mt. Blanc*, bribed the guard to let me ride it through the tunnel, into Switzerland, Lichinstin(misp.) into Austria - Vienna then north up to Graz where it finally died. I left in a parking lot in Graz and took the train south tio Venice, Greece etc. It was am anmazing machine - I was carrying far too much lugage and so I usualy wound up walking up the moutains, but hell on wheels comng down. * French guards must have heard that I was coming through and were madly waving to get me to stop - yeh sure!

Parabéns belíssimo trabalho abraços.

Beautiful work sir, a pleasure to watch you, thanks 😊

amazing. good work dude!!! <3

very slow movements. I do not like.

Spectacular! I want one

My French teacher Madam Leandre used this wonderful bike in Pondicherry when she working in Alliance Francais. Bye gone those wonderful days.❤

I remember Raleigh. Made. One. Of. These. Rollers. On front. Tire. !!!

Le Solex. La 2cv des Vélomoteurs Toute une Époque. Existe aujourd'hui en version électrique. Le Solex , est toujours fabriqué . Mais plus en France. En Asie , je crois !?.

Watching your video from the Netherlands 🇳🇱. Very nice restauration. I have a similair stove/heater from HALLER in green enamel and brass. Still needs some cleaning, so this video is a welcome guide. Thanks for sharing 🤠.

А что же кольца не поменял.

Loved your video, have restored three of these 1700's over the past 10 years , just a few comments if I may, as someone has already mentioned the main bearing is crimped in, if you don't do this it has a tendency to move out of housing, you will know when this happens as the big end will rub against end cover! Also that motor at some stage has had a new big end fitted as it has a needle roller bearing, original was plane bronze bushing, possibly was replaced with later piston and barrel as well , if so you are in luck as late set up produced a bit more power!! Also none of my 1700's had a coaster rear brake set up all worked on caliper rim brakes front and rear, however could be different I guess from where bike came from, good luck with fuel pump and the throttle valve assembly, cheers.

They didn't have any spiders back then

too many mistakes. sad, it should have been good.

Vous voilà heureux propriétaire d'un vélo Solex . Mon premier tour en vélo avec moteur était un solex celui de mon père c'était début des années 1980. J'ai donné à un collectionneur des bidons de Solexine. Here you are happy owner of a Solex bike . My first lap in bike with engine was a solex that of my father it was early 1980s. I gave a collector cans of Solexine.

Those are some very crow like crowbars.

you can rotate the bore to remove piston 22:57
