Also know as malaguti, have one since 98 for the kids but plenty of adults enjoyed playing around as well and had to weld frame like yours, well done

[@johndocbikerestorations831]

Good to hear you had fun with it. Also to know I can search for Malaguti for spares. Thanks for the info

Hiya buddy, now that’s a bike I’d love to see done. Some of the parts are the same as the Barron 50cc I did early one in the year.

[@johndocbikerestorations831]

Cheers Monkey, that is helpful to know. I will get back on to it in the new year. Sending my best

[@monkeyroo8740]

@@johndocbikerestorations831 looking forward to that one. All the best to you too buddy

Hi John Great video. I just bought a ST50 and will be putting a C90 engine in it. Loved your video on the Dax. Can I ask what rear shocks you have on the Dax?

[@johndocbikerestorations831]

Hi Alan, great conversation, think you will like it. The shocks are from a Honda CG125, they are a bit stiffer but feel pretty good.

Cool little thing ! My brother had a Polini minimoto bike that looked like a little Ducati . It was tiny but it was wicked fast and sounded like a proper little racebike .

[@johndocbikerestorations831]

I have seen those, they look amazing

I have one been in the family for 50 years. Was my brothers when he was a kid was mine as a kid now my son is riding it

[@johndocbikerestorations831]

That is so good to hear, a bike giving joy to many generations.

When do you plan on finishing it how often are you gonna upload about the build

[@johndocbikerestorations831]

I will get on with now and upload when I can, the next step is to visit the spoke guy after the holidays!

Interesting little bike John, who knows maybe a viewer in the States has an exhaust they're willing to sell. I hear what you're saying about projects, I've several on the go but it's overwhelming.

[@johndocbikerestorations831]

Thanks Darren, yea I hope one turns up for it, its being patient eh.

[@marksoltvedt5746]

These bikes were made by Italjet in Italy for Indian so that should broaden your parts search

[@johndocbikerestorations831]

Thanks, it's back on the back burner at moment!
