Cars and bikes I’ve come across in my travels

[Vince]

MT 125 was my first bike, absolutely gutless. I had to get it delivered as I had only ridden minibikes with no clutch. Been all downhill since. That was 1973 I think.

I was out walking in Bilbao and this caught my eye. No idea what it is, but it has nice retro styling.
And a black seat!

My Daughter has the same but is a Sinnis- Mash are French design but based on Suzuki, built in China.Actually very good bikes.

I went to their site after posting and they have some good looking machines, from 125cc to 650cc too. So they are Chinese Suzuki engines, that’s good to know.

Alfa Romeo, Spider, I think.
I thought they would have all rusted to dust by now.
Maybe it's a new one. I think I read somewhere they were/are remaking them.

These days I would more likely be checking out the snazzy looking scooter....

Lifted off another forum. Spotted in Canada. Presumably someone's ideal commuter ride. The size of the mirror suggests some concern about speed vs other traffic. 65cc apparently.

Curious, looks like it’s been made up from a Honda 70. ???

Saw this fellow at a restaurant in the Pyrenees right at the French Spanish border. I read that a corrugated bonnet indicated it was an older model, but the square headlights make me think not. Perhaps it is the number or type of corrugations?

This is a 'corrugated bonnet' 2CV.

Rims and tire size looks kinda odd IMHO.
Another PITA to work on, n'est pas Piet?

 

[Alzero]

A bitza or restomod? Probably at one time it was not too hard or expensive to put one together from parts.

Tyre size looks OK to me, it's missing the chrome trim rings and hub caps.

Yeah, especially renewing front brake shoes. The rest just falls apart when you kick it...

' Am just about to pass one of my collection over to my son, as I am sure he will give it the exercise he will enjoy... as will the bike.
Full details of bike on internet "CRAMPTON CLASSIC" Enjoy!

More Taiwanese junk. Mash sure seems to have the classic Britbike styling down, even to the exhaust pipes.

I’m thinking of one of these when I’m too old to ride. Moto Guzzi 850 engine @ 80hp and 2CV gearbox. Weighs 360kg.
