dalesmanjon Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 My name is Jon and I live in Belfast. Have had a Daleman for abour 20 years now, and use it regularly. Info is really hard to find on parts etc, and there seem to be a great variation on models. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dalesmanjon Posted February 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 (edited) Welcome! So it's a Puch 125 is it? Thanks. It is indeed. Are you familiar with them at all? This one was bought new by my uncle about 1971 ish. Then I got it years ago, and I`ve been using it regularly. I find the gearing a bit high, never seem to get into third. Was wondering if there were any different sprockets available to alter the gearing. Edited February 4, 2010 by dalesmanjon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dalesmanjon Posted February 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 Welcome aboard, Jon. Have any pictures of that ole Puch? Thanks. Yes I have loads of pics, but it seems nearly impossable to post them here without a lot of work. Got some nice ones last weekend, riding in a local lead mine in the snow. Do you have much knowledge of the dalesman? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big john Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 (edited) My first bike was a 1969 four speed 125cc Puch Dalesman, ex-ISDT bike of Ernie Page. I posted some info on threads on here before in the twinmshock or classic pages. Big John Edited February 5, 2010 by Big John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a 6 speed .I was reading your older posts from last year, and saw a link to flickr. There is a pic of my bike on that. Its in ianashdowns photo stream under other dalesmans. The very last photo caller "Dalesman Trials." It looks a bit better now, and is used regularly. In fact I will be out on it tomorrow morning. So far as I know it is all origional except for the mud guards. The exhaust downpipe has been replaced because it got flattened on a rock one day. The one on it now is the same shape as the origional, but its from a VW Beetle. The seat has been re covered and I just got new levers for it today. I`d love to post a few pics, but its a days work on here. Edited February 5, 2010 by dalesmanjon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
