choke linkage removal for 77 motobecane
1977 motobecane 50S
Does anyone out there know how to take the choke linkage brass spring
cartridge out of the carburator on my motobecane 50S 1977, if I can do
it I am home free fixing my motorbike.
florida
Hi, here is a photo of the carburator on the vintage motobecane I am
going to put on when I can find out how to take the existing choke linkage
off and put it on my bike that already has the linkage there in my second
photo, I want to use the linkage on the bike to save some work, thanks
and I will send you a second photo of the existing linkage on my bike,
I was thinking of tapping the brass sping coller upward to see if it would
pop out but I do not want to damage my carburator since they are
hard to find these days and I dont have a repair manual to know the right
procedure, thanks and any help would be great,
Sounds as if there may be a little corrosion
in there. Try filling it with penetrating oil and leaving it for a day
or two. Ed.
thanks for your info and I did free it with the oil, one more question,
can you look at the way I mounted my carb , I have no manual and am not
sure if a intake manifold goes on in between the block and the carb, the
bike is a 1977 motobecane 50S , the linkage looks like it will not extend
if there were a manifold, here is a pic, thanks

1975 Motobecane Mobylette
I have a 1975 Motobecane Mobylette moped that I am interested in selling.
It has 125 miles on it, and has been garage kept for the past 30 years.
It doesn't have a single scratch on it, and after 30 years, it STILL runs
great! Its all original, yellow paint, and everything works, i.e. speedo,
odometer, light, horn, etc. I have no idea how much this moped is worth,
but it has everything......even the little tool kit that comes in the back
of the seat. What do you feel would be a fair asking price for this?

Piston head for '77 Motobecane Moped
I have an old '77 moped that needs a piston head. Do you know
how or where I would go about getting one?
Ca
-------------------
Thanks for clarifying what I am asking for. I bake cookies and
cakes and do laundry....this is out of my league!!! I am asking on
behalf of my son!!
I am looking for the piston head only (bake at 350 degrees until done!!).
The moped is a Meleirs Dela Motobecane (wash on heavy duty cycle).
It has not been working for years now. My husband used to use
it quite often, then children came along!!! Not much room for a baby,
toddler, etc. Now, many, many, many moons later our 16 year old is
trying to do CPR on it and put a little air in its lungs and blood in its
veins. The moped may be in need of some warm cookies and milk, and
then put to bed for a very long time, but we are hoping that a freshly
"baked" cake of TLC will get it motivated.
Now, I'll try to send a picture. Thanks so much for getting back
to us. You are great!!
Instructions for solving moped problem
---------------------------------------
Step 1: Set alarm for 2:30am
Step 2: Sneak out and dig deep hole at bottom of garden.
Step 3: Inter mortal remains. Short prayer.
Step 4: At breakfast, declare "Oh no, Mopy Dick (or whatever
the poor thing was called) has vanished!"
By the looks of those photos, it's long past CPR.
However, I still don't really know what parts are required
or damage done, so if you (or your son) really want to persevere I suggest
you bundle the motor into a box and take it down to the local bike shop
for an opinion. It may well be that it just needs, as you suggest, milk
and cookies...
Hope that helps. Thanks for the giggle.
Now I lay my moped down to sleep.
I pray the Lord it piston head to keep.
And if it arises from the bottom of the garden,
I'll pray to the Lord and plead a bargain!!!
Thanks for your suggestion! I know just the spot to start digging!!!
Although, I won't be surprised to see a bit of dirt on my sons sneakers
and a big box being carried down the street!!

Hi I've just bought a Motobecane 125 cc scooter, I'm not really sure
what type it is, it seems to be a mix of a Motorcomfort and a Moby if anyone
knows anything about spares and manuals I'd be very pleased. --

I've read through all the e-mails from people with Motobecane questions,
and the question that seems to be always asked but never answered, is where
to get parts for the 50V moped????? I need a front sprocket, and
would be grateful for a lead. -- Thanks very much. Carrol

Subject: 1950 French motorbike
Anyone ever hear of a "Motoonfort? There is one at a local Antique Mall
here in Norfolk, and they are asking $2900 for it. Me thinks this is a
bit high, I would only give $500 for it myself. This is one neat bike,
it looks very 30'ish. Bike has : 125cc two stroke with a exposed chrome
spinning flywheel-magneto, a fishtail exhaust muffler, two speed tranny
w/hand shift, both foot and hand clutch, the frame is a rear plunger type,
front fork is a twin cantilever springer with adjustable binders as shocks,
has a solo saddle with pillon clamped onto the luggage rack.
I think it may be a early Motobecane they made motorbikes before bicycles
and the trade mark looks the same (a big "M with wings on it) the Motoconfort
has a finned cylinder in the valley of the M, other than that same same.
The dealer claims to have bought it in France and shipped it here. He also
says it is a 1947 but I showed him the date 1950 on the motor ID plate.
The bike is 99.99% complete but covered with a light rust. I plan to keep
a eye on this and see if it sells, the owner may get tired of it sitting
around (and it will at $2900). If he just wants to move it, I may be able
to help him.
Sidney
