European and Other Bikes / Restoring Terrot!
« on: August 16, 2017, 08:31:34 PM »
Hi all, it s been a while!

I first posted last year when hubby bought a Terrot Etds to restore. There is progress, albeit slow  ;)
Parts have been restored, replaced and painted. Ive included a pic of just some of the parts.

Most has now been done but were still far from being finished ! We have however, run into a bit of a problem with the return spring of the selection plate. The problem we have is we don't know where or what the top of the spring hooks, hook onto ? All the pictures I have found, they don't ! They have just been bent over? The gear box was in pretty good condition when we opened the casing, other than a good clean up. 

The spring in question was as it is in the photo.

Thanks so much for any help with the spring

My apologies for the picture being the wrong way round. It was the right way up when I added it!

European and Other Bikes / Restoring a Terrot 1955 !!
« on: October 16, 2016, 09:07:44 PM »
Hi everyone, ive just joined hoping to get some help and advice on restoring a Terrot 125  1955. We bought it about a week ago and had it shipped from France.
My partner has restored cars and bikes before but we thought this would be a challenge, and its living up to it !! Whilst waiting ( impatiently ;-) ) for the email to activate joining here I did read through JoeJoyce 's post on the Terrot 1953 and got some good info from that. But we were hoping to get a bit of advice on a couple of things. Parts are a bit of a problem and the seat, Dunlop rubber needs help !!

We are so looking forward to restoring this pretty little bike, but we would love to get a little help.
I will try and put a picture on, but just in case I struggle, I will keep trying.

Thank you for reading :-)
