Gas Valve for sheet frame is located on the left front, close to the decompression valve and start cable. The original had the hose spigot on the right, heading toward the carburetor. Although right is prefered, the replacement gas valve can have the hose spigot going down or left. Shown above is a “12×1 spigot down” replacement petcock, on a yellow Columbia.

91  1 751-0252 $0.00 gas tank air vent

Gas tank vent: When adding gas, press the vent button under the seat to let air escape. Otherwise, air will prevent gas from filling the back half of the U-shaped tank. The vent has a light spring that automatically allows air to go in as gasoline goes out.

Gas tank: Tube frame tanks must mix the gas and oil in a gas can, because the tank is too long and thin for the oil to get to the back part and dissolve evenly.

Gas Valve is a vertical type valve used in a nearly horizontal position. It is located on the left rear, near the left pedal. Here it is shown (broken) on a black Columbia. The handle lever gets kicked and broken easily. Care must be taken to not kick it when stepping through the frame.

1-chain hub sprockets for 420 or 420H chain are 5.5 mm thick, thicker than most mopeds. 

Wheels with Italy-made steel 1-chain hubs

 

Some models in family 2, such as this ’79 Imperial, came with an Italy-made steel 1-chain hub on the rear, and a USA-made 2-chain type aluminum hub on the front. So they were sometimes substituting parts.

 

Wheels 2-chain: 3. 2200-C + 280,
4. 2240/50 + 340, 5. 2260/70, 6. 2280
aluminum 2-chain hubs made in USA by Columbia

The rear brake and sprocket are both on the left. The hub center is small 28mm stepping to 24mm in the center. The step retains the lip-less sealed bearings, and so no adapter sleeves are needed.

Chain link counts specified here include the master link. The link counts in the Columbia parts catalogs do not include the master link. 

2-chain hub sprockets for 415 or 415H chain are 4.3 mm thick, and have a 115mm center hole, bigger than any other moped sprocket. That is because of the oversize 105mm drum brake that goes inside the sprocket. Having the brake and sprocket on the same side allows the opposite side to have a screw-on freewheel sprocket for a pedal chain.

Brakes made in USA by Columbia are compatible with Grimeca brakes made in Italy. The cast aluminum Italian-made Grimeca brake shoes on the early 1976-78 sheet-metal-frame Columbias, directly replace the stamped steel American-made brakes on the monotube-frame and late 1978-80 sheet-frame Columbias. The USA made brake plates, cam shafts, lever arms, are also each interchangable with Grimeca items, but the axles are different 12.0 mm on the American-made hub, and 12.7 mm (1/2 inch) on the Italian-made Grimeca hub.

Sachs engine Columbia: On Columbia with Sachs engine, the throttle cable carburetor end passes through a M6-0.75 thread adjuster on the Bing carb elbow, so the adjuster is not trapped on the cable, and is sold separately. The carb elbow, aka curved pipe, can be either short or long. So there are two different throttle cables, short or long. The difference is 1/2 inch of exposed inner wire.

Horn was first located on the right side of the engine in ’76-78, because of CEV round bullet headlight. During 1978 the headlight changed to Peterson rectangular. That allowed the horn to be behind the headlight because there was more room. The horn wires changed in the wiring harness, and also the switches.

Electrical: Columbia lights are completely separate from the ignition. Never will the engine die when the brakes are applied or when the brake light wires are loose, like on many other mopeds. Each of the lights has it’s own generator wire, so they are independent of each other. The 6V 22W AC yellow wire powers the head light, speedo light and horn, the 6V 10W AC green (and green/black) powers the brake light, and the 6V 5W grey wire powers the tail light. Those three lighting source coils, plus a fourth ignition source coil (perhaps 20 volts but not officially rated), comprise the “Bosch 6V 22-5/10” magneto-generator.

Benelli G2 G2K

January 30, 2021

updated 2020-03

Benelli models with G2, G2K engines 1970-80

49 cc horizontal cylinder 1-speed, automatic clutch.

 

 

G2 engine: (Gentlemen Due 49cc) is on US models 1977-80 Benelli G2, 1976-77 Benelli Blazer, 1978-80 Moto Guzzi, and 1977-80 Moto Guzzi Robin and UK models 1974-80? G2. The G2 engine is the second generation of the late 60’s GM engine, a 25mph horizontal cylinder one-speed automatic, with a Dellorto 9mm sipping straw. Like the GM, the G2 engine does not have built-in pedals. The external pedal system is unusual with both pedal and motor chains on the left side. Most bicycle chains are on the right side, so a special reverse or “left hand” freewheel is required.

G2K engine: (Gentlemen Due Kick 49cc) is on 1970-76 Gentleman, UK models 1974-80? Motorella, 1978-80? G2 KS and G2 Elle. Eliminating the pedals and pedal chain simplified the frame design, and allowed the rear wheel to have a single sprocket and bigger wheel bearings (since they did not have to pass through the inside of a freewheel). 

Here is a English language 1978 Benelli Service Manual (UK models 50-125cc) a PDF download for the mopeds below and others. Euro models have a Dansi 101662 magneto. Euro models with brake light have Dansi 101813. US models (all with brake light) have Dansi 101441 or 101813.

B5. Benelli 1977 Blazer changes

Benelli Blazer-US: The USA version of the Bobo had the same parts catalog B1 to B4, except for the last page B5 that showed all of the changes. The controls (and start cable) changed from Domino to PV. A CEV 60mm speedometer, cable and driver were added. The CEV 2139 “bullet” headlight was round, bigger, brighter and required more watts. The CEV 9350 tail light also was bigger, brighter and required more watts. The 6V 21/5W #1154 bulb had a brake light and the lens had side reflectors. The switches were CEV round chrome clamp-on type, with English language labels. Right thumb operates engine stop. Left thumb operates lights and horn. The Blazer magneto generated more watts.

The 1978 Parts Book has better illustrations than the later ones. So the 1978 pictures are used here. There are no suffixes a, b, c, etc on any item numbers. So there was only one version of every part. There was no carburetor parts section (Tillotson). 

The 1979 Parts Book had some parts that came in two versions. They had an A or B after the item number, such as the carb, intake pipe, fork, fork lock and battery. Some of the 1978 item numbers changed in the 1979 and later parts manuals. There was no carburetor parts section (Tillotson or Keihin). 

The 07-1979 Parts Book had some parts that came in three versions. They had an A B or C after the item number, such as the carb, intake pipe and magneto. There was no carburetor parts section (Tillotson, Keihin or Mikuni). The page numbers were 1 to 36.

The 1980 Parts Book had some parts that came in four versions. They had an A B C or D after the item number, such as intake pipe. There was no carburetor parts section (Tillotson, Keihin or Mikuni). The page numbers were 1 to 36?

The 06-1981 Parts Supplement had the Keihin and Mikuni parts, the 79-later 2-coil magneto, and Mira mag wheel parts sections. The page numbers were 37 to 42. So it was a continuation of the previous books. It was a stack of pages to be inserted into the back of any parts manual. 

 

 

Section 1 – Cylinder and Head

Indian AMI-50 with Keihin PA-MOA carb

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

OHV: This type is over head valve OHV, not over head cam OHC. Head or piston replacement is easier on OHV than on OHC, because the cam and cam chain are in the bottom, out of the way.

Heads: Indians have 2 types of cast iron cylinder heads, #3 black ’78-80 and 3d silver ’80-81. Head #3 has 33mm intake bolt spacing, while 3d has 35mm. Head 3d has a more side-facing flange angle. Head 3d has valve stem seals. Head 3 did not.

Pipes: Indians have 4 types of intake pipes, 4a, 4b, 4c, 4d. The first 3 are for head #3, and so have a 33mm lower bolt hole spacing. Pipe 4d is for head 3d, and so has a 35mm lower bolt hole spacing.

Head and valve parts

Head and valve parts

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

No valve guides: Both the head #3 ’78-80 and the head #3d ’80-81 have no replaceable valve guides, just precision holes and spring seats cut into the solid cast iron. When the holes get worn the whole head has to be replaced.

No valve seals: Head #3 did not have valve seals #31 or cups #32. It had no facility for holding valve seals. Indian engines with un-worn valve stem holes do not need seals. Indian’s mid-70’s relatives Honda PF50 and QR50 did not have them. But old engines with worn valve holes do need seals. Oil creeps down the valve stem, and is then burned. Burned 4-stroke oil smells, smokes, and blackens spark plugs.

Valve seals: Only the later ’80-81 head #3d had valve seals. The built-in valve guides outer diameter was reduced from 9.9 to 9.0 mm to allow a thin seal cup to fit inside the lower end of the 10.0 mm ID valve spring.

White ratchet “springs” and trans parts.

 

 

 

Indian pedal ratchet pawl springs, early spring steel leaf type, often broke. That caused the pedals to freewheel both ways, but the engine could still be push-started. The upgrade springs for 1979-later were silicone rubber. The good thing is those never break. The bad thing is the pedal chain and ratcheting sprocket are trapped in the center of the engine cases, and cannot be serviced without engine removal and complete disassembling, with splitting of the crankcases. 

Indian front sprockets fit on many small Honda models, like early Honda 90, but not early Honda 50. They have 6 splines, 17mm inner by 20mm outer diameter. A normal Indian goes 27mph with a 15 tooth. With more power it could go 29mph with a 16T. With less power, or with quicker take-off, it could go 25mph with a 14T.

The WTEMCO magneto is similar to a 90mm Bosch magneto, like on Puch mopeds. Many things interchange, like points, condenser, mounting plate. The original points are the older style 3-piece kind, identified by the e-clip. By removing the screw-in post, newer style one-piece Bosch points will replace the older 3-piece ones. The WTEMCO flywheel timing angle is close to Tomos, which is different than Puch.

Welcome. Many Tomos parts are in the Parts By Type sections. Below is a summary list of Tomos parts with links to the Parts by Type sections. The parts are described by sizes, specs, and type rather than part numbers and brand names. This system allows for when the same part is used on several different brands. For example, “Tomos A3 rings” are also “Sachs rings” and “Puch rings”. Instead, here we call those rings “38.0 x 2.0 FG”. That is more technical, but more universal and correct.

Exhaust
1974-2006 Tomos A3 and A35 have an exhaust baffle that can be modified to improve performance. When the power is low the bike does not want to shift into second gear. There are other causes, but the most common one is exhaust flow restriction. Cut the baffle so that only the outlet tube with end cap remains. Widen the screw hole and use a machine screw and nylock nut, instead of the original sheet metal screw. Without that the baffle works loose and falls off after a while.

1. Piaggio

Welcome Vespa scooters and mopeds were made in Italy by Piaggio. Vespa is a division of Piaggio, like Chevrolet is a division of General Motors. In the USA the bikes were branded as “Vespa” but in most countries they were called “Piaggio”. The brand name Vespa was used up to the 1980’s.   

Scooters and Mopeds: Piaggio made scooters from 1947 to present, and mopeds from 1967-2006. Only mopeds are covered here. Mopeds have a front engine and large thin tires. Scooters have a rear engine and small wide tires. 

2016 Piaggio P.1HH unmanned aircraft

History: Founded by Rinaldo Piaggio in 1884, Piaggio first made railroad locomotives. In WWI and WWII they made military aircraft. They still do make aircraft and many other machines. After WWII they transitioned to civilian necessities, like motor scooters. The first Piaggio Vespa scooters had front suspension made from a light airplane landing gear. The first scooter wheels were aircraft wheels and tires. The stamped sheet metal body-frame was an aircraft design. They were named Vespa, which means “wasp” in Italian, because the two-stroke engine sounded like a wasp. The superior designs made the products light, efficient, affordable, convenient and safe. Soon Vespa became a worldwide motor vehicle manufacturer. By the 1970’s the name Vespa became synonymous with motor-scooter, like Coke is with cola, or Kleenex is with facial tissue.

From about 1968 to 1975 Vespa mopeds were imported to the US and distributed by Western Scooter Distributors, 1599 Custer St, San Francisco CA 94124.

From about 1976 to 1985 they were imported and distributed by Vespa of America Corporation, National Headquarters, 355 Valley Dr, Brisbane CA 94005.

2. Piaggio-Vespa (US mopeds 1968-1985)

Model Codes: “/B” in the model code means “with Blinkers” (turn signals and battery boxes). “E” means “Elastique” (front suspension), “N” means No front suspension. “V” means “Variatore” (variable speed transmission)

1968-71 Vespa Mopeds:

The beloved Vespa Ciao (pronounced “chow”) was first introduced to America by this ad from 1968. The model shown in this ad looks like a European model, with no brake light, no side reflectors and no electric horn. The ad says it is approved for highway use and comes in five colors. The C9N and C9E had 19 inch rims. The C7N and C7E had 17 inch rims.

1972 Vespa Ciao C7E1T

1970-71 Models

C7N1 Ciao Standard

These early US models did not have blinkers, but still had a battery. The battery box covers were dark grey.

 

1972-75 Vespa Mopeds:

1972 Vespa Ciao C7E1T

1974 Ciao C7E1T/B

1974 Ciao C7E1T

1972-75 Models

C7N1T Ciao Standard
C7E1T Ciao Special “SC”
C7E1T/B Ciao Supreme “SC”

 

 

 

New for 1972: The CEV (round) tail light that shines straight back, changed to the CEV 9350 type (oval with flat sides) that also shines to the sides, as required by new 1972 US safety standards for on-road motorcycles.

After 1971 the USA model codes had “T” added to the end. Model codes are the first part of the serial number, stamped into the frame.

Notice the 1972 C7E1T has a small square grey box on the frame directly under the nose of the solo seat. It covers a thick coil spring for the “swinging saddle” frame as they called it. Now look above at the 1971 C7E1. Not there. The mopeds with swinging saddle frames had a big SC sticker on the rear fender, than means “Super Confort”, Italian for Super Comfort. Just like the earlier models, the seat itself had a spring in it. So the SC Ciao had both a seat spring and a frame spring for the rear suspension. With swinging front and rear suspension it was more able to cross continents. 

In the 1972-75 Ciao parts catalog, there are three model types, C7N (model code C7N1T), C7ESC (model code C7E1T) and C7ESC with blinkers (C7E1T/B). These were all the same speed and power, 40 km/h (25 mph).

New for 1974: First documented human crossing of the United States coast to coast on a moped. Richard Hartnett rode a Vespa Ciao 2617 miles on just 16.5 gallons of gas, from Jacksonville FL to San Diego CA, in 11 days. Western Scooter Distributors honored him at a luncheon in San Francisco, in this early ad from Vespa of America Corp.

New for 1976: New US safety standards. Before 1976 there were no US safety standards specifically for mopeds. There were only motorcycle and bicycle safety standards. The brake levers did not need to have ball ends. The front brake on C7N was not a drum brake. But the 1972-75 bikes did already have USA-required brake light and side reflectors. The new US safety standards were like opening the flood gates, as the US became flooded with mopeds from Motobecane, Peugeot, Tomos, Batavus, Puch, Garelli and many more. Piaggio had already been selling mopeds for about eight years.

In the 1976-77 Ciao Bravo parts catalog, there are seven model types, C7N (C7N1T) 30mph, C7ESC (C7E1T) 20mph, C7ESC (C7E1T) 30mph, C7ESC (C7E1T/B) 30mph with blinkers, C7VSC (C7V3T) 30mph, EVL (EEV1T) 30mph, EVL (EEV1T/B) 30mph with blinkers. The 30mph versions actually went 24.9 mph, compliant with “under 25 mph” and “under 30 mph” US state laws. 24.9 is 40 km per hour, the legal limit in 1970’s Italy.

Vespa Mopeds Speed Versions Info

Speed Versions: Other than a small sticker on the sub-frame that says “30”, “25,” or “20” it is not easy to tell what speed it is supposed to go. The lower speed bikes have smaller carbs, ports, exhausts, and lower gearing, and possibly other devices to be compliant with each state’s moped speed limit. This spreadsheet of part numbers and notes, condensed from the various Piaggio parts catalogs, explains the differences.

In the 1978-80 Ciao Bravo amendment 2, and the 1978-80 Grande parts catalog there are these 15 model types, plus blinker versions:
C7N (20, 25, 30mph) serial numbers from C7N1T-3516364
C7ESC (20, 25, 30mph) serial numbers from C7E1T-2351324
EVL-Ciao (20, 25, 30mph) serial numbers from C7V3T-6058864
EVL-Bravo (with plastic tank) serial #’s prior to EEV1T-6045501
048  Grande (20, 25, 30mph) serial numbers from 048-1001

C7E1T/B Ciao Supreme “SC”
C7V3T Ciao Super “SC”
EEV1T Bravo Deluxe
EEV1T/B Bravo Super Deluxe
048 Grande Deluxe
048/B Grande Super Deluxe

New for 1978:
The Grande model was introduced to USA only. It is a two-person heavy duty design. It’s twin long tube gas tanks, which are part of the frame, are too long and thin to allow oil mixing in the bike’s tank. Instead the gas and oil must be pre-mixed in a gas can before adding to the bike’s tank.  

The turn-signals-with-battery versions of Ciao and Bravo have a new electrical wiring and components. Instead of an external ignition ground, where the ignition source coil powers the brake light, they have an internal ignition ground. The following components are different: wiring, brake light switches, tail light, aux. lights source coil. Now the engine never looses spark because of disconnected brake light wires.

The 1978-80 Bravo tail lamp is identical to the 1977 one, except that it does not have a secret brake light resistor inside. The 1978 with internal ignition ground does not need the resistor, but the 1977 with external ignition ground does. If you put a 1977 Bravo tail light on a 1978, the brake light will be dim. If you put a 1978 tail light on a 1977, the brake light will be super bright, and soon burn out causing loss of spark. Weird…

SIV1T Si

New for 1979:
The new model “Si” was introduced. “Si” means “yes”. It was more modern, with monoshock rear suspension. The Si had 4-ray type “mag” wheels, cast aluminum, made by Piaggio.

After 1979 all Grande models had Razze Incrociate “snowflake” mag wheels, made by Grimeca. The much stronger cast aluminum wheels resisted bending, and never had broken spokes.

1980 Ciao PX

1980 Vespa Si

New for 1980-81: The Ciao C7E is modernized to the Ciao PX. The 1970’s Domino “chrome” controls become 1980’s Domino black type. The tail light became flat and tucked in under the luggage rack so it is less vulnerable to breakage. The headlight became grey plastic with a built-in switch, the light grey side covers became dark grey. 

The Ciao C7N and C7V are discontinued.

Unlike the Ciao PX, the Grande did not say MX anywhere on it. So the MX suffix became unused and forgotten.

 

1982 Grande MX 068/B

 

New for 1981:
– Oil injection, on the Grande and Si. No more mixing of 1 part oil and 50 parts gas.
– Internal ignition ground. No more loss of spark if the brake light wires are loose.
– 17-digit VIN number, no more Veglia speedometer, only CEV.
– No more “bullet” headlight on /B models, no more chrome, only black.
– New black Bravo-type tail light, more black and less gray things, like cables.
– New key switch, wiring and brake light switches on blinker /B models.

The final years 1983-85:
In an effort to reduce air pollution, in 1983 the US Environmental Protection Agency made it illegal to sell new two-stroke street motorcycles over 50cc. The powerful 350 to 750cc Yamaha, Suzuki and Kawasaki sport motorcycles that dominated US streets in the late 60’s and 70’s, all had to have 4-stroke engines. Mopeds and 50cc street motorcycles were exempt. Piaggio chose to abandon the US market, rather that change it’s two-stroke 100-200cc scooter engines to 4-stroke. 

Piaggio left the USA in the mid 1980’s. There were some 1984-85 Piaggio Si mopeds sold then, but no more classic two-stroke Vespa scooters after 1983. By 1983 sales of Vespa mopeds were low, thanks to low gas prices and low-cost mopeds and scooters from Honda and Yamaha. The Japanese scooters like Honda Elite 80 and Elite 125/150 had four-stroke engines, US compliant. By the end of the 1980’s well made Japanese 4-stroke scooters were common on US streets. 

For over 15 years the USA did not have any new Piaggio vehicle sales. Then in the early 2000’s Piaggio returned to the US with completely redesigned modern 4-stroke scooters, but no mopeds.

1972 Ciao SC

1971-1972 CIAO SUPER CONFORT (Super Comfort)

The Super Confort has a swinging-suspension seat. The support tube is painted in silver gray. Initially, this model is identical to the last Ciao Lusso, with painted fenders, but differs in the saddle with the elastic support and the all black tires. In the course of production, the headlight changed from CEV, like on the Ciao Lusso, to the traditional SIEM black with the horn underneath. Both wheels still have 32 spokes. An “SC” sticker is below the rear light.

The front wheel now has 28 spokes and the rear has 36.

1972-1974 CIAO ARCOBALENO SUPER CONFORT

These came in white, lime, yellow, orange, red, brown, violet, and blue. The Ciao Super Confort Arcobaleno has light gray side panels, fuel cap and headlight, unlike the previous version (Super Confort first series), which had dark gray. Only the dark gray plastic lid covering the spring under the saddle remains. On the tank the font of the “Ciao” logo changed, and comes retained the central chromed profile. The side panels have a slightly different shape, with plastic fasteners. Between the steering tube and the upper part of the tank a bag holder hook appears. The front wheel now has 28 spokes and the rear has 36. An “SC” sticker is below the rear light.

1979 Piaggio Ciao R2 C7E1T

1974-1981 CIAO R2

The model “Erre 2” or “R2”, replaces the models “R” and “Arcobaleno”.

It has a new headlight designed for mounting the speedometer, equal in shape to that of the Ciao Super Confort Arcobaleno, but made of gray plastic metallic. Since 1978 the writing on the tank has changed: the script “Ciao” is moved to the sides, while the tank says Piaggio in capital letters. New side panels. The grips return to black and the handlebars a U. The front fender is shorter with a small mud flap and the lower struts are eliminated. The ends of the brake levers now have a ball. The ignition coil is fixed on the frame by the part of the chain?

1980 Piaggio Ciao P C7E2T

1979-1987 CIAO P, PV

In 1979 the Piaggio Ciao benefits from a profound update. The front suspension arms are longer for more travel. The Domino 1970’s gray controls with chrome steel levers change to Domino 1980’s black with black plastic levers. The headlight, footrest, side panels and tail light change to a modern design made of gray plastic. The tail light moves from the fender to the back of the luggage rack. The saddle becomes completely smooth, with two longitudinal ribs. Classic bicycle pedals give way to black rubber blocks with Piaggio coat of arms printed in relief. The muffler also changes shape: the diameter is major and its ends are flat instead rounded. The Ciao P (rigid seat) and the Ciao PV (rigid seat and variator) do not have a steering lock.

Section 7 – Controls, Cables and Handlebar

Indian Controls

Two types of Indian moped controls were original equipment, here called Type A and Type B. They both have the same wires and brake levers (which can be silver or black). Cables for both control types are the same.

Type A (1978-80) has silver lettering and includes a built-in Indian-type start lever. There is a threaded hole for a choke lever mount in the right control. A handlebar-mounted choke lever was used on Mikuni (cable-choke) carburetor versions. A remote choke lever was not used on Tillotson and Keihin (lever-choke) carburetor versions. Type A controls had silver or black brake levers.

Type B (1980-81) has orange lettering and a separate clamp-on Lazer-type start lever. There is no threaded hole in the left control housing to attach a Type A start lever. Type B controls had silver brake levers. Unlike most motorcycles, black came before silver.

Threads: The 5 mm metric screws and nuts in these controls have pre-1970 JIS (Japan Industry Standard) coarse threads, M5-0.9 instead of M5-0.8 standard metric. 

Illustration: The controls section 7 illustration in the Indian parts manuals is poor and incorrect. It is for 1977 Lazer (Her Chee) type controls. Here the controls illustration is from an Angel (TYM) parts manual, corrected and colorized.

A, B after item number means the controls type A or B that item is for
a, b, c etc. after item # means different versions of that one item

Taiwan Integrated Controls: The lever mounts/housings are also the electrical switch mounts, so these are “integrated” controls. That means the switches and buttons are part of the control housing, and were never sold separately. Indian controls share many things in common with General controls. They look the same. Two main things are different. 1) General controls have bottomless cable holes with threads (made for adjusters), while Indian controls have thread-less cable holes with bottoms (made for no adjusters). This means Indian and General  brake cables have different “exposed lengths”. Indian inner wires stick out 1″ less. 2) General controls have wires with multi-pin connector plugs, while Indian controls have individual bullet connectors.

Levers 78-80 are black 1980-81 are silver

Levers – black or silver

Substitute Controls: To use General controls on an Indian two things have to change.
1. Cable or Cable Hole: Either A) the control has to be modified with a M8-1.25 threaded slotted bottom-plug, and the threads slightly drilled to become smooth (made ready for a no-adjuster cable), or B) the no-adjuster brake cable has to be changed to an adjuster type, with 1″ longer exposed length, and an M8-1.25 slotted adjuster added. The easy way to do that is to add a 1″ metal tube onto the threaded rod at the wheel end. The difficult way is to cut off the upper “ball” end and solder on a new one 1″ closer to the conduit.
2. Wire Connectors: The multi-pin plug has to be cut off, and individual male bullet connectors installed onto the wires. Some wire colors are different. On those colored tape or written labels need to be attached, to make the “General” wires (left – yellow, black, light green, right – light blue, brown, orange, red) become “Indian” ones (left – yellow, gray, purple, right – light blue, brown, orange, blue). 

Indian handlebar holes

3. Choke lever for Mikuni Carb: Only only some of the black General right controls have threads for a choke lever. So not all would work for an Indian with Mikuni, without drilling and re-threading. Most of the silver General right controls have choke lever threads.
4. Start lever: Only some of the silver General left controls have mount holes for the start lever mount. So not all of those work for Indian, without drilling.

Indian Brake Levers: They’re the same as General, Honda Express and other Taiwan mopeds (but not 70’s Lazer). 

Special Threads: Screws on Indian controls have special coarse thread M5-0.9 instead of M5-0.8. This was the pre-1970’s Japan Industry Standard (JIS) for 5mm screws. If you ever had a 1960’s Honda or Yamaha you might know this. After about 1969 JIS changed to normal M5-0.8. So Indian and other 1970’s Taiwan controls might be remakes of unknown 1960’s Japanese controls.  

Left Indian, no wire slot.
Right General, with slot.

Handlebar Holes: Indian control switch wires run through the inside of the handlebar, but not the brake light switch wires. The handlebar has seven holes: 1 – bottom slot where all wires exit, 2 – small side holes for turn signal wires, 2 – top holes for control wires, and 2 – top small holes for control locating pegs.

Control wire slots: General-type Taiwan moped controls, made for external switch wires, have wire slots that look like “mouse holes”, to let the wires out. Indian controls do not, but slots can be cut with a Dremmel or disk grinder.

True Hydraulic: The Indian front suspension is hydraulic (oil-dampened) for a smooth ride. Each 24mm outer diameter fork tube holds a maximum of 3 ounces of 20W fork oil.

Fork Types: (from 1981 Service Manual) There are two fork types, denoted by the series letter on VIN digit 8. Series A,B,C,E have “type B” fork. Series D,F,G units have “type A” fork.
The first Indians made in 1978 had the type A cast iron fork yoke. It was made for the type A fork lock F140-00-50, which did not have an electrical switch. That fork lock had the lock pin in between the mounting screws. The type A yoke for that can be identified by the 3 holes in a row where the fork lock goes. Those early Indians had a battery minus wire with an eyelet connector, that was always grounded to the frame. But anyone could turn on the signals, light up the brake light, or beep the horn. So Indian decided to change the fork lock to one that had a battery off and ignition off switch. The only fork lock they could find had different mounting screws. So they had to make a different fork yoke, type B for the type B fork lock F140-00-50 with electrical switch. That type B fork yoke can be identified by the 3 holes in a triangle where the fork lock goes.

Yuan Ta: Indian spoke wheel hubs and brake plates were made by Yuan Ta. That name is in the cast aluminum. The same Yuan Ta 90mm hubs are also used on AMS and Trac (Dailim) mopeds. Most Indian brake panels say “Yuan Ta”, but some say “AMI50”.

Replacement Spoke Wheels: The 32 hole 17″ chrome rims say “KI 2.00×17”. This is the recommended tire size, but 2.25 is what they come with. The inner rim width is 1.30, thinner than the  mag wheel width of 1.60 inch. They are sold bare, without axles, axle spacers and brake plates.

 

Sm2 and Spoke Interchange: The brake and axle parts are the same on the Sport Mag II and spoke wheels, except the horse shoe spring is for sm2, and dual coil springs are for spoke wheel. That is because the Sm2 wheel center is thicker, and would rub on coil springs. The original brake shoes were the same, except the spring holes are bigger for the horse shoe spring. The horse shoe spring is more difficult to install, but leaves room for a bigger, stronger hub center section. When coil springs rub against the rotating center section they “sing” or “zing” like a violin. The cure is a horse shoe spring.

No Sm2 shoes: One issue with the EBC 913 modern replacement brake shoe is the spring holes are fine for the coil springs they are made for, but are not surrounded by enough aluminum to be drilled bigger for a thick U-spring. That is why there is currently no replacement for Sport Mag II brake shoes. Either the spring ends have to be ground smaller, or the holes have to be drilled wider, or some of both. But then there could be failures, if there is not enough strength left.

USA-made: Indian 17″ mag wheels were made by Sport Mag II in Placentia, California USA, near Myrons Mopeds. On the wheels that come on the bikes, no markings are in the cast aluminum, but “1.60 x 17” and “DOT” are stamped on the rim. The mags were made in natural silver or coated black with silver trim. The same mags were also sold as accessories for upgrading a spoke wheel to mag. Those say “1.60×17 Sport Mag II   DOT-N” and the date (this one 5 80 means May 1980) in the casting.

Sprocket Centering Lip: Left, a Yuan Ta rear hub, showing the 42.0mm centering ridge for the sprocket. Right, a Sport Mag II rear wheel, also with a 42.0 mm center hole lip. This lip keeps the sprocket centered, running smooth, and makes the bolts last long and not come loose. European moped sprocket centering holes are 39.5 or 42.5, too small to fit, or too big to stay centered.

 

This is the label on the Mag Wheel Set box. It was shipped to A.V. Moped on Aug 23 1982 for $2.68. Myron bought out A.V. Moped a few years later.  American-made wheels, with history.

These are the parts needed to upgrade your original Indian spoke wheels to Sport Mag II solid aluminum wheels. The mag center spacers are a hair longer. They’re also thicker so 4 inner dust shields are provided with slightly bigger center holes, 19.5mm ID and 31.5mm OD. Here are the center spacer specs:

W218-00-50 center spacer rear  spoke Ø13Ø18 x 66.1
W118-00-50 center spacer front spoke Ø13Ø18 x 49.0
A218-00-50  center spacer rear  mag   Ø13Ø19 x 66.4
A118-00-50  center spacer front mag   Ø13Ø19 x 49.4

 

Also in the kit are two horseshoe style brake springs, to replace the coil ones after drilling the (original, not modern EBC613) brake shoe spring holes bigger. Also four 5/16-18 by 3/4 long sprocket bolts thread into the American made aluminum. There once was an instruction sheet but that has been lost.

Brakes: In the above right photo, at left are 100mm brakes, at right are 90mm ones. The 100mm brakes are for the 1980-81 Mira snowflake style aluminum wheels. At bottom right is an installed horse shoe brake spring. Above that are dual coil springs installed. The coil springs make it easier to put the brake shoes onto the panel: “fold the taco into a tortilla”. See Service Dept.

Sprockets: Indian front sprockets fit on many small Honda models, like early Honda 90, but not early Honda 50. They have 6 splines, 17mm inner by 20mm outer diameter. Indian rear sprockets have a 42.0mm centering hole with four 8.5mm bolt holes, spaced 62mm apart, center to center.

Gas Valve: is unique. It has the M16-1.5 thread of a 1970’s Honda, but instead of being a more common “up and down” or vertical mount, it is a “sideways” or horizontal mount. The supply ran out long ago in the late 1980’s.

Inner seal disk: Usually the valve is good except it leaks or does not shut off completely, because the rubber seal disk is old and damaged (shrunken, hardened, or cracked). The remedy is a new rubber disk, 15G above (also Section C item D10 in Gas Valves).

Substitute petcock: must remove cover!

Outer rubber ring: There is a 16 mm groove in the middle of the turnbuckle nut. That is where the 13 x 17 x 2 substitute outer ring fits, tightly. On the way in it has to fold to pass over 14.5 mm inner threads. But once in the groove it can unfold and fit tightly.

Substitute gas valve: The only known substitute is a vertical mount type. It fits and shuts the gas on and off. Mounted sideways on an Indian, the handle faces upward, instead of outward. Your fingers cannot reach it through the cover hole, made for the original petcock. So the cover has to be removed, to reach the handle. Also because it is mounted sideways, there is no reserve capability. It is listed if the Gas Valves department section A, item A35.

Gas cap: It is a common quarter-turn type with an uncommon size. The gas cap bottom part is 36 mm outer diameter, for gas tank holes 37 mm inner diameter. Almost all other quarter-turn moped gas caps are 28-29 or 38-39 mm outer diameter, for gas tank holes 30 or 40 mm inner diameter.

 

Indian coil original

Electrical versions: The first Indian’s batteries had an eyelet black (minus) wire, a permanent ground. But anyone could operate the lights without a key. So in late 1978 they added a key switch to the fork lock. The fork yoke had to change to accommodate it. The 1979-81 electric fork lock did two things when the key was removed. 1) shut off the lights and horn (by un-grounding the black battery wire) 2) it also killed/locked the ignition (by grounding the blue ignition wire). The later wiring D437-10-50 has the battery wire and the 2 fork lock wires. The early wiring harness D437-00-50 did not have those extra three wires. The early-1978 battery had an eyelet-connector minus wire. After late-78 it had a female bullet black (minus) wire. Then the battery could be switched off.

Color Stripes

Color Stripes

The color stripe stickers have creases and folds where the sticky part has been exposed to air and dust for many years. So in places it might not stick good, and/or it might have a slight bump or ridge in places where it was folded for 20 years. They are sold as is and priced accordingly.  

The gold script tank and side stickers are also old, but not wrinkled. They peel off the back paper OK, but the front paper sticks and tears. It must be carefully removed piece by piece.

Indian Battery (early)

Indian Battery (early)
6N2-2A black = eyelet
red = fem+dbl fem bullet

Indian Battery wires (late) 6N2-2A black = fem bullet red = fem + dbl fem bullet

Indian Battery (late)
6N2-2A blk = fem bullet
red = fem+dbl fem bullet

 

Battery Wires: As mentioned above in the frame section, there is an early and a late wiring version. The early wiring had no shut off key switch. The battery was always grounded/bolted (and thus active or “on”) to the frame . The Indian early 6N2-2A-I1 battery had an eyelet connector on the black wire, an Indian logo on the front, and double female plus single female bullet connectors on the red wire. The Indian late 6N2-2A-I2 battery was the same except for a female bullet on the black wire. The grey scale battery (late) image is a edited copy, but the color image below of the wires (late) is real. 

Indian Wiring Diagram

Indian Wiring Diagram

 

 

Indian Wires: In the wiring diagram you can see how the fork lock switch was added on to an earlier version, where the battery ground eyelet used to be. The fork lock wire labeled BK and colored black is actually green. The long BL blue fork lock wire that is shown plugged into the double female bullet above the engine, is actually short and plugs into a single female bullet above the fork lock. So one of the double blue female bullets is unused, as seen above in an actual photo.

Rectifier Wires: The square black thing with red and green wires is the (half-wave) rectifier. It changes (half of) the AC, from the green wire, to rippled DC at the (+) red wire, for battery charging. Notice that on the Indian rectifier the (+)red wire is male bullet, (-)green is female bullet. The other Taiwan mopeds with that identical square black rectifier, General, Lazer, AMS, etc, almost have opposite wires. Their (+)red is female blade, and their (-)green is male bullet. Watch out!

Turn signals: These Indian round turn signals, that clamp on to a round post, are Taiwan copies of early 1970’s Honda ones (made by Stanley). The Stanley ones are metal, not chrome plated plastic, and have a slightly bigger post and clamp diameter. A 1973 Honda (Stanley) turn signal needs a strip of aluminum can, a single layer, to clamp on to a 1979 Taiwan moped turn signal post.

Turn Signal Handlebar Mount

Front signal mount #6a

Bar mount front signal

Handlebar Mounted Front Turn Signals: These shiny aluminum mounts clamp the front turn signals to the handlebars where they’re protected. Say good bye to broken front signals! They’re not in the 1978-81 Indian Parts Books (by American Moped Associates), but they are in the 1982 Indian Operators Guide (by Leone Accessories – Indian Motor Company), at right. So they are included here in the Indian parts “reunion”. The normal front turn signal chrome posts, with M10 x 1.25 threads, screw into the Taiwan head light body to hold it on. When handlebar mounted turn signals are used, M10 x 1.25 x 20 chrome hex bolts hold the head light on. This also gives a cleaner look, although the signals droop down at an angle (because of the handlebar angle).

 

 

Di Blasi R2 and R7 Parts List

August 21, 2019

updated 2021-11

Here are five Di Blasi R7 parts catalogs, each with two versions, and one Di Blasi R2 catalog. They are combined into one list, using thirteen model columns. Each model column contains, for each part number, the part quantity.

White 0 part quantity means the part is not on bikes of that model.
Black 1, 2, etc means the part occurs 1, 2, etc times on bikes of that model.
Italic means the part is on some bikes of that model, but not all.

Red part names are links to part photos.

1890 catalog

1. Montgomery Ward

Montgomery Ward was founded by Aaron Montgomery Ward and Andrew Ward in 1872. Ward had conceived of the idea of a dry goods mail-order business in Chicago, Illinois, after several years of working as a traveling salesman among rural customers. (from Wikipedia). Ward sold “everything” and had a mail-order catalog.

Sears, Montgomery Ward and JC Penney were the major US department store chains that sold motorcycles, scooters, mini-bikes, or mopeds in the 1960’s and 70’s. 

Montgomery Wards

1950s – 60s: The Wards line was named “Riverside”. The earliest Wards Riverside models were scooters made by Japan’s Mitsubishi and Italy’s Bianchi companies, and mopeds made by France’s Motobecane. Those pre-1965 France-made Wards Riverside mopeds are completely different from the post-1965 Italy-made Wards Riverside mopeds.

 

Late 1960’s: In 1965, Wards changed manufacturers and opted to sell mostly machines from the Italian company Benelli. Benelli offered mopeds and a line of single cylinder motorcycles 50-360cc. The Benelli line plus a Lambretta scooter allowed Wards to compete in the marketplace with the Austrian Puch mopeds and motorcycles that Sears was selling under their Allstate brand.

 

Early 1970s: By 1970 the moped and motorcycle sales went away for the two department store retailers primarily due to the Japanese invasion with highly engineered, reliable and powerful 4 stroke motorcycles under the likes of Honda, Yamaha and Suzuki. Also, in 1970 the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) was created to oversee and combat increasing pollution and air quality issues. Smokey two stroke motorcycles and other high emission vehicles would be the first targets.

1979-80 Ward Open Road

Late 1970s: After the mid-70′s gasoline shortage in the US, moped sales and popularity exploded. In 1978 Montgomery Ward (and Sears) began selling 2 stroke mopeds again. This time around, Wards sold the USA-made Columbia moped with German-made Solo engine, rebranded as “Open Road”, and two USA-made AMF models. Later they sold USA-made EZ Rider/Minarelli mopeds, and in California stores, the French-made 1980 Peugeot 102 (on sale for $279). Sears, once again, also started selling Puch (Kromag) powered mopeds but under their Free Spirit moniker. Catalog and department store retailer J.C Penney also got in on the moped action in 1977 by offering its own Puch (Kromag) based mopeds under the names of Swinger and Pinto. By 1981 the moped craze was over and all three department stores discontinued selling mopeds, this time for good.

 

2. Wards Riverside all models

Sources: These model numbers and data come from official ads and trusted sources found on Google Images, and independently from Wards Riverside Riders. The purpose of listing as many model codes as possible, is to learn what the all models are, for each year, and what the codes mean.

Determining the Year: Almost none of these 1960’s mopeds and motorcycles say the year they were made. As a result many riders guess their bike’s year or incorrectly use the approval year. To make matters worse, most of the Wards advertisements and manual covers or pages do not say any year.

Use this chart to learn the year range by the specs or the model code, if that is known (some ID plates can be missing or have the model code blanked out). On Motobecanes look at the date on the Gurtner carburetor for when that was made. On Benelli’s the Dellorto carburetors do not have dates. Look on the bottom of the speedometer, under the seat, or elsewhere for dates. The year the bike was made would be soon after all the components are made.

3. 1957-64 Motobecane-made Wards Riverside mopeds

These US models were made in Patin France by Motobecane, for Montgomery Wards department stores throughout the USA and other countries. By the 1960’s Motobecane was global. US models were called Riverside, UK models were branded as Raleigh, India models were called Suvega. They all share the same equipment. The goal here is to admire and understand the bikes and learn what parts are the same. Motobecane models and dates are well known and organized in Ets Mauger.

Most of the time, the engine and the bike were made in the same year. But on some, the bike is made a year or more after the engine was made. This happens regularly near the end of the year, or when too many engines are produced, or not enough frames, or other reasons.

Wards Riverside Motobecane Engines 

AV7 V  The first variator “hinged” motor Motobecane ever made was on the early 1957-59 Riverside mopeds, #50165. The AV7 V motor had a Gurtner AR10-429 carburetor (not BA10-549 like Mobylette AV78 had). This motor was on Mobylette AV or AU 68 to 79, including 1957-59 AV 78, 1957-59 Riverside 14007A (because it is equivalent to AV 78). With a 10 mm carb these late 1950’s models went about 27 mph with 1.5 horsepower.

AV7 V2 (restricted intake)  This variator “hinged” motor #50294 had 1.5 hp, and was on 1960-61 Riverside 14010A and 14010B. The 50294 motor had a Gurtner AR10-429 carburetor. The Riverside parts book says on page 1 that engine #50294 is on 14010A, and it replaces engine #50165, because #50165 is discontinued. With a smaller intake pipe #16673 and 10 mm carb these early 60’s mopeds went 27 mph with 1.5 horsepower.

AV7 V2  This variator “hinged” motor #50298 had 2.0 hp, and was on most 1960-64 Riversides. The 50298 motor had a Gurtner AR13-488 carburetor (like Mobylette AV88 had). This motor was on 1960-65 Mobylette AV or AU 88, including 1960-64 Riverside 14010C, 14011A, 14010, 14011 (because they are equivalent to AV 88, and the Riverside parts book says that on page 5). With a bigger intake pipe #16619 and 13 mm carb these early 1960’s models went about 35 mph with 2.0 horsepower. The rest of the 2.0 hp engine was the same as the 1.5 hp version. See the engine parts listed side by side below.

AV7 Dbe (restricted intake)  The non-variator (Dimoby) “fixed” motor was a lower power version only on the rear-gas-tank model Riverside 1961-62. The AV7 Dbe motor had a Gurtner BA10-540 carburetor (like Mobylette AV43 had). This was on 1960-61 Motobecane AV43 and AV44, including the Riverside 14030 (because it is equivalent to AV43). With a small intake and a 10 mm carb this early 1960’s model went about 27 mph with 1.5 hp.

 

Wards Riverside Engine Parts

This is a side-by-side comparison of the main engine parts. The first four columns of part numbers are for 1957-1964 Riverside engines AV7 V, A7V Dbe and AV7 V2. The last three columns are for 1974-1977 Motobecane USA engines type AV7 Vb and AV7 Vc. Most of the parts for 1970’s Motobecane USA models Myrons has in stock, some used and some new. Some of those also fit 1960’s Motobecane or aliases like Riverside or Raleigh. This chart lists the main engine part numbers, to see what’s the same (across time and space).

3a. Identification 1957-64 (Motobecane)

“It don’t come easy”, George Harrison said. Wards kept secret the identity and year of their products, because they sold better when they were perceived as fresh, and had recognizable brand names, and because their products did not change every year. Nowhere on the bike or any ads or manuals did they mention any dates. 

The year of a bike has to be determined by the model code, engine number and by the equipment it has. The engine number years are in the table above. The year range of the corresponding Motobecane model with the same equipment is found there and below. Official manuals, ads, photos of actual bikes and their ID plates all provide evidence. When all the evidence agrees, it can be trusted as truthful.

Source: Motobecane official photos of every year of every model are shown at Ets Mauger. Thanks to that wonderful resource, the three Wards Riverside French moped models are now correctly matched to their equivalent Motobecane models, after being incorrect. Also the confusion of 18 or 19 inch tires has been resolved; they use both sizes. It’s funny how the tire size can be determined by the shape of the tool box cover!

Date: The date of manufacture is not stated on the ID plate or anywhere else on the frame. The engine does say the year, but that is the year it was approved. The year the engine was made was a year or more after it was approved. This one says 1959 but it could be a 1960-64. There is a way to tell the year precisely by the original Gurtner carburetor. This “1959” has a BA540-F 2/62 carburetor made in Feb 1962. The frame would have been made some time after the carburetor was made, maybe a few months or less.

On the wall: Myrons Mopeds showroom has a Wards Riverside Mo-Ped hanging on the wall, incomplete, but still cool. Everybody likes to see it and many people want to buy it. It’s exhaust interchanges with the 1970’s kind, even though it’s more rounded. 

In the tank badges photo, you can see the outline of the egg shaped plate it once had on the gas tank, same as on early AV68. The extra washer on the badge screw does not belong there. For now, it takes up the space of the missing plate.

This took many hours learning and searching, to find the two pairs of matching illustrations. Wards gives no specs, apps or sizes of anything in the parts lists. They don’t say who makes their products and parts. All that makes it more difficult to find possible substitute parts.

All of the parts on the AR13-488 carb (bigger venturi) are the same as the AR10-429, except for: 16630 wider intake sleeve, 16628 wider main body, 16881 different diffuser (spray nozzle with both main and idle holes), 16629 wider throttle slide, 16708 top screw, and 190 unknown item.

Twist Grip Operation

The twist-grip control has two sliding blocks that pull two cables. Twisting the grip towards you pulls on the throttle cable, to increase the engine power. Twisting the grip away from you pulls on the decompression cable, to release the compression and make starting easier. You first twist it away from you. Then pedal or push the bike above walking speed. The automatic starting clutch will go clunk clunk and engage the motor, which will then turn over with a sound like glub glub glub. Then you twist the grip towards you. That releases the decomp cable, restoring the compression. Then the engine starts. If it’s a cold start the choke lever needs to be pulled also.

Italy Flag

There are many Italian motorcycle names. Wheels of Italy has 543 motorcycle sections.
These here are the Italian brands that sold mopeds new in the USA, plus a few others.
The bike identity (brand, maker, model, year, version) helps to know the parts identity.
Most export models are “re-branded” and the true identity is concealed.

Chris Cycle    made in Italy by Wilier    Morini engine

Wilier Triestina began in 1906 in Trieste, Italy as Ciclomeccanica Dal Molin. Craftsman Pietro Dal Molin from Bassano was fascinated by bicycles and the speed with which they were gaining popularity in daily life.  He purchased an almost unknown English brand, Wilier, and began producing bicycles. Wilier has produced winning racing bicycles for over 100 years. Here is the full story from wilier.com.

1968-69 Chris Cycle M-3

1964-68 Chris Cycle M-2

Vee’-lee-air: Although “Wilier” was originally a early 1900’s English bicycle, it is also W.I.L.I.E.R. Both Wilier and Triestina were inspired by Italian patriotism following the World Wars. Wilier is an acronym. W is an abbreviation for the word Viva, which means “Long live”, beginning the phrase: W l’Italia LIberata E Redenta – Long live Italy, liberated and redeemed. It is pronounced /Vee’-lee-air/. from Wheels of Italy

Motocicli Wilier produced small motorcycles and mini-cycles mostly 48cc in the 1950’s and 60’s. Here is the Wilier gallery on cybermotorcycle.com.

Chris Cycle was an American brand of mini-cycles, made in Italy by Motocicli Wilier in the 1960’s, imported and sold by Everywhere Inc. in Monrovia CA, near Los Angeles.

FMB Telaimotor Fabbrica Motocicli Bologna Telaimotor (Bologna Motorcycle Factory that makes motor Frames) was one of the myriad companies in and around Bologna, Italy through the ’50s to the ’80s that specialised in building their own chassis. FMB was based at 38 Via Fossolo, but sadly now there’s a company building lab equipment instead.

 

FMB should not be confused with FBM (Fabbrica Bolognese Motocicli). FMB made chassis and nearby FBM made engines.

1976 Gilera Mopeds flyerGileraGilera  made in Italy by Piaggio   Piaggio

Gilera was founded in Arcore, Italy in 1909 by Giuseppe Gilera. After four decades of making motorcycles, in the 1950’s Gilera had the technical expertise to win the 500cc motorcycle world championship 6 times in 8 years. In 1969, Gilera was purchased by Piaggio.

1976 Gilera Trial Moped

Gilera motorcycles were sold in the US, as a Sears brand in the 1960’s. Gilera mopeds, with pedals, were never sold in the US. These “sport mopeds” at left were for England in 1973 to 1977, where there was no limit on power or speed or transmission gears, only 50cc with pedals. Many of those “sport mopeds” went 55 or 60mph. Wow! 

The Vespa Grande, a US model, is 80% the same as a Gilera cbA, a Euro model, both made by Piaggio. The lights, electrical wiring, and long seat are the main differences.

Lambretta       made in Italy by Innocenti     Innocenti 1-spd engine

Innocenti was a steel tubing factory formed in 1922 by Italian businessman Ferdinando Innocenti. In 1947, after the factory was heavily bombed in WWII, they switched to producing motor scooters with the brand name Lambretta. The design was inspired by 1940’s Cushman scooters made in Nebraska USA. 

From Wikipedia: Lambretta is the brand name of a line of motor scooters initially manufactured in Milan, Italy, by Innocenti. The name is derived from the word Lambrate, the suburb of Milan named after the river which flows through the area, and where the factory was located. Lambretta was the name of a mythical water-sprite associated with the river which runs adjacent to the former production site.

In 1972, the Indian government bought the machinery of the Milanese factory, creating Scooters India Limited(SIL) in order to produce the Lambro three-wheeler under the name Vikram for the domestic market. Lambretta scooters were also manufactured under licence by Fenwick in France, NSU in Germany, Serveta in Spain, API in India, Yulon in Taiwan, Pasco in Brazil, Auteco in Colombia and Siambretta in Argentina. Innocenti S.A. (also known as Lambretta Consortium) based in Lugano, Switzerland is the owner of the international trademark Lambretta and has licensed the brand throughout the world.

Lem     made in Italy by Lem     Minarelli and Morini engines

Lem Motor srl was founded in 1974 by Vincenzo Marasco, in Calderara di Reno, Bologna, Italy. Lem produced small motorcycles with mostly 50cc and 65cc Minarelli and Franco Morini engines. In the 1980s the majority of models were for junior MX and trials. Later the company partnered with Italjet, and in 2017 produced a variety of pitbikes and minimotos up to 150cc along with electric motorcycles.

 

Maico            made in Italy by Bimotor – Moto Bimm     Minarelli V1

Maico is a trade name used by importer/distributer M.P.I. A true Maico is German-made, usually a motocross or trail bike. Maico mopeds are made by Italy by Moto Bimm.

Moto Bimm was founded in 1965 by Jose Becocci in Florence, Italy. They produced off-road motorcycles from 50 cc through 125 cc using Minarelli engines. Later there were sport bikes and mopeds with various small engines. The Maico moped is one, famously known as the Billo in Italy. Sometime in the 1970’s Moto Bimm became Motori Bimm and then Bimotor, which lasted until 1980. Note that “Moto Bimm” is not Moto BM (Bonvicini Marino) and “Bimotor” is not Motobi (Benelli). The names are all similar.

 FBMMoto F.B.M.  made in Italy by Moto FBM   FBM engine

Moto F.B.M. (Fabbrica Bolognese Motocicli) 224 Via Battindarno, Bologna, Italy was founded in 1951 by Vittorio Minarelli and Franco Morini, nephew of Alphonso Morini. The two young Italian engineers produced 125 to 250cc motorcycle engines for other makers.

 

Moto F.B.M.Testi and Sachs helped Minarelli: Since 1933 Testi was a bicycle company owned by Umberto Testi. Umberto’s son Erio Testi worked in his fathers bicycle factory. In 1953 Umberto sent his son Erio Testi to Austria to visit Fichtel and Sachs, and learn about small two stroke engines. After Erio returned, he was hired by Moto FBM, and transferred the Sachs two stroke moped engine manufacturing knowledge to his friend Vittorio Minarelli. In 1954 the Pettirosso (red breast) was born, a 50cc 2-stroke 2-speed cable-shift engine, destined to become the engine for most popular mopeds in Europe, and later the P3 3-speed version.  see https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/FBM_(azienda)

In 1956 Moto F.B.M. split into F.B. Minarelli and Motori Franco Morini. See Minarelli Motor and  Morini Motor.

FMB Telaimotor Fabbrica Motocicli Bologna Telaimotor (Bologna Motorcycle Factory that makes motor Frames) was one of the myriad companies in and around Bologna, Italy through the ’50s to the ’80s that specialised in building their own chassis. FMB was based at 38 Via Fossolo, but sadly now there’s a company building lab equipment instead. FMB should not be confused with FBM (Fabbrica Bolognese Motocicli). FMB made chassis and nearby FBM made engines.
