 . Thanks for putting up the difference between French and Indian models. Since yours is a CBU from France, is it called a Mobylette? I am looking for information regarding the various models of Suvega in India and what were the differences. Could you please check with your contacts from ex-MI regarding the same. Also check with them for pictures of original Suvegas so I can compare with mine and restore accordingly. Also, what are those fittings on your front wheel (near hub)? Are they original too?Please post more pics after she is back from movie-shooting  | |

Mobylette had a "twin down lane pipe" chassis & inverted handle levers Sure, I'll post more info regarding our SUVEGA s, but not from our ex-MI s  , Most of them are misleading at times.reason: will pm to u if u r so particular !!! Ho! those small lights fitted to the front wheel axle--- Chinese stuff!!, just to add pep, since the light reflectors glow in pecock green, which goes with the color scheme. | |

Its not sportif, this one is Kinetic Safari. Sportif was manufactured by m/s Chammundi Mopeds , Tumkur in technical collabration with legendry PEGOUT of France. Think you mistook this Safari for an Sportif, because both of these mopeds had "Sheet metal fabricared Spokes" | |

But an ex- Mopeds India technician, told that it was known as " Suvega GL or Suvega Gold Line" Think this one either just before Suvega Samrat or after it. Look at the rear rigid suspension!! Any one with more historical details on this " Tirupathi Gold L...." Last edited by Rehaan : 9th April 2009 at 14:28. Reason: Once again, please DO NOT post in all bold text. | |
