The Green Puch

By Nick Lepera · Puch Maxi · 1977

Added · Updated

Started off as a 1hp maxi with an E50, skinny spokes and metallic red paint. Now it is an over restored piece of art, with a 93 original mile ZA50 that I case bored to fit a 74cc Gila kit, replaced seals, pucks, TOP rod kit, and L17 bearing just so I could re-shim the crank, then polished to a chrome like finish. EBR inverted forks, custom made wiring harness using several oem Puch harnesses. There is not a screw or bolt that went on this bike that has not been polished! Painted Land Rover Kent green metallic with PPG'S Global paint system.
