jdmichat Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdmichat Posted September 4, 2009 Author Share Posted September 4, 2009 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

japyles Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 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 .

DrGMatic Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 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.

awa355 Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 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.
