i'd forgotten about this thread.Got some free time and busted out the moped, to save time I found a cafe seat pan already finished, also ordered the clutch springs and a new chain to allow the longer swing arm...Maximus is ready to get finished!
For the past few months I have been reading cafe builds and getting inspiration, also drawing plans and laying out the frame to tank setup. I need to get a tank in next to finish the bike off.
I really want to spring and get a Bimmer tank, I fear it will be too big and look awful.
coincidentally, i moved to a warehouse loft in SF a couple of months back. treatland is in the same building. i used to buy parts for my derbi GPRs from them so it's pretty cool that i can chat and see what's up around the shop when i go out for a smoke.
i'd buy another GPR if i wasn't pretty sure it'd get stolen. i worry about the Baur enough as it is.past:

That's awesome...I found out about Treatland a few weeks ago...definitely the best one stop shop for parts for these things. I've realized that these moped guys are something else...treatland has some ridiculous descriptions on their site, seem like a great group of peoplei'd forgotten about this thread.
