March 26, 201016 yr they work very good with the original Amal carb, in Spain in fact only Amal is elegible for the Pre72 category.so just for information what other classes and categorys do they have ? Blue (very tough route): Experts Green: Divided into Pre80 and Twinshock (Post 80 bikes) Yellow (easy): Divided into Pre72 and Clasicos (post 72 bikes) Pre bikes with prweparations go to Twinshock or Clasicos. Concentric carburetters only admited in the national and regional champs.
March 26, 201016 yr Not sure what you mean here, but yes, the Kit Campeon offered as an aftermarket update for the M49 was a one piece tank/seat unit as fitted to the later M80, as per Greeves' post. It didn't have a tank vent like the M49, the vent was in the filler cap.What I meant is that Paul's bike is a standard M49 with the correct M49 tank and seperate seat unit. From the first picture you can't see the tank vent as it's on the other side, so the colour scheme and the fact that the filler cap has a breather makes it look like an M80 (or Kit Campeon) tank with the seat unit cut off. You're right, of course. That paint scheme was throwing me way off.
May 25, 201313 yr Thought I would post a photo of my Model 49 now that I have restored it. P.S. she now pulls a chair/sidecar.
August 14, 201313 yr Thought I would show you the latest picture of my Model 49, now that she has gone slim line (Kit campeon spec) Brand new tank unit by Shed Works, all the rest from ebay and Bultaco UK. P.S big rear sprocket,as she pulls a chair!
August 15, 201313 yr Nice work,it looks great! That model is one of the best looking bikes ever built.
August 15, 201313 yr Hi Paul, the taco is looking great now. Where abouts do you ride, as i am fresh back into riding on an old Montesa and am in Suffolk and would be looking to do some easy-in trials later in the year, maybe next year. regards Dave
