Re: Now this is a trailer!

You've actually got me tempted now. They look pretty simple and I've got a pair of mint T.V. Bretta panels in the shed and a wrecked frame. I know where there's some scaffolding bar,to make the frame. So all I need now is a bender (to bend the pipe,- before you ask). then all I need is to make an axel.
Sounds easy, satin black on my bobber- cool.

A TV 175 or a GT was always on my 'wants' list. Quite fancy one nowadays actually, but I think a bobber 'll come first...or a winter hack..oh bollix.

I've got a couple of brettas tucked away, a Silver Special in original paint, complete with original Pride & Clark dealer stickers.-had it for 14 years now.
I've also got a custom SX 150/200ish- in bits, after a 70mph suicide attempt by me - with a 246cc motor, aluminium barrel, with a ceramic bore, & reed valves, Dynoed at over 35bhp at the rear wheel.- I will rebuild it again in the very near future. Got a couple of Vespa's stashed as well - but I just can't get attached to them.

Re: Now this is a trailer!

the hd-classic guy normally has some, have to keep checking back to see availability.

a company in states import/export pav's they're contactable via www.singlewheel.com or myoldscooter@gmail.com

they pop up on ebay occasionally

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...1107&rd=1&rd=1

this company make new ones, with a price to match

http://www.cyclope2000.com/Principale_ang.swf

the pav40/41 were made by a czek scooter firm for their machines. i think they fetch about 500 notes for a descent solid, complete one to restore.

the pavs are the business, and i so want one for my shovel. i think abit more research before i seriously consider investing.

wouldn't be too difficult to manufacture soemthing similiar, especially using scooter side panels. but i reckon you wouldn't lose your money on an original restored. a diy-trailer, however neat looking won't be as desirable, and inherently valuable as the real deal? so if it's affordable in the first place, get a pav. you know it makes sense ;).
