Thanx Mark for coming to my aid although the problem still persists, the look on your face was peach when you realised how quick Popsi rider really is when she is flying at full steam.

Re: A friend in need is mark G on any sunday!
After taking on board Marks advice and stripping the top end i found she had a broken rin,
despite numerous attempts by Flika to get hold of Mr 50cc tuning I took it on my own head and rang Rex Caunt, very helpfull indeedy and a new Puch maxi piston arrived on saturday morning and within an hour I was running on all one cylinder again sweet as a nut.
No misfire, no ticking over problems definatly no funny noises and a Popsi rider pulling a good 60+mph again.

Piston is an Athena piston single ring sames as the dead one. (not a good piccy I am afraid but its all I have on file)
Says Athena FS1 on the invoice however it deffo said Puch Maxi on the box.
For the benifit of Flika its an A piston and there is a difference in the piston ports between the A & B I am told!
See you sunday Mark quite a few of us coming along for a ride now including the Skung who is gracing me with his precence all weekend.

Try running this piston in for at least 100 miles this time

I am! I havent been over 40 yet and only pulled one wheelie and that was accidental.
It sound so much different we are all out for a long one Sunday so I will see how it behaves itself.

I am going to bring one of my bikes out here I've decided as I'm bored with sweating my bollox off in a smelly rental car
