Posted September 2, 200915 yr Hi ! I try to find a heat shield for my "new" bike... It's a CT1 (serial number CT1-300705 but first immatriculation in France in 1974 ?...) Anyway, further questions : -Where can I find an heat shield (some on ebay got 2 points at the rear, mine's got only one) -the seat looks strange...is it stock? If there's somme specialists...all informations about my bike are welcome !!! Many thanks!!!!! JD
September 4, 200915 yr well. i googled the part number and got nothing. bikebandit has nothing. ebay has nothing. northwest vintage cycles has nothing. are you near a bike salvage yard? i'd head on over. ftr - 248-14718-30-00
September 4, 200915 yr Author I've found some answers on e french forum! It's a european Ct1 from 1973 (front indicator on the handlebar). The difference with the US model is the seat wich is longer and the muffler wich is longer too ! Here's the two models to compare: European (mine): US (Yann 31): Unfortunaly...I prefer the US mode l

September 19, 200915 yr HI all. May be a stupid quetion but, I bought a CT 175 not sure the year, aparently got some parts from a CT1 but there are parts form ct2 and Ct3. The engine come all in parts. The head of the engine got 2 spark plugs, Is that normal for a 2 stroke bike? Should it has only 1 spark plug as it has only one piston? Try to work my head around.. Thanks . John Pyles

September 12, 201113 yr Jidmichat, What's stumping you may be the fact that, although your frame is stmped "CT-1", what you have there is a "CT-3". So, the 248-14718-30-00 won't fit, it's for '69-'71 AT1/CT1. The part number you need is 314-14718-30-00. Lots of the parts are inter-changable between the AT1/CT1 and the AT3/CT3, and actually, between the whole AT1/AT2AT3/CT1/CT2/CT3 family but not the exhaust. On another note, your exhaust is the same as the US model, fitting the AT2/AT3/CT2/CT3, it just has a longer silencer on it, (is it a factory part?). Her's the best OEM parts web site, if you search a part and click on it, it'll show you what other bikes it will fit: http://www.boats.net...ycle/parts.html By the way, I'm searching for a '69-71 European AT1, non-electric start.
September 13, 201113 yr I bought a CT1 175 new back in 1971. In NZ, they were only sold in the red colour, The DT2 250 was the Yellow/gold as was the 125. $242 NZ back then , It was a damn good alround bike. The first of many sold, that I should've kept.
