Bajaj Chetak
2 Attachment(s)
I have a 2004 Bejaj Chetak that has been sitting in the garage for 10 years.
As part of the long overdue project of clearing and organizing the garage, I hauled it out over the weekend. Battery dead, fuel tank probably full of turpentine. Spark plug is fouled but otherwise fine. Some scratches, a couple minor dents. http://ecomodder.com/forum/attachmen...1&d=1522204364 http://ecomodder.com/forum/attachmen...1&d=1522204388 What should I do with it if I fail to sell it? Part it out? Convert it to electric? Scrap it? |
I didn't even remember there was any Chetak with a battery. Most of the ones that had been exported to Uruguay in the '90s had only a magneto.

I would get it running, fun transportation for the summertime :thumbup:
Is it 2 or 4 stroke? |
IIRC they're all 2-stroke. Well, I assume it would be a little harder to compensate the weight bias if Bajaj started offering a 4-stroke on those, due to the added weight of a valvetrain.

After work, in the last light yesterday, I cleaned the spark plug with carb cleaner, steel wool, and a steel brush. Took apart handlebar switch that is not sending a signal to the left directional (it seems). Cleaned it, too. But no improvement in turn signal. Right signal works normally after cleaning--it even has a beeping noise to go with the blinking. Careful taking apart an Indian-made switch... I got a littkle more "apartness" than I expected. |

Hybrid with a canopy would be cool.

There is a market for those. I have noticed that in the last couple years old vespa scooters and similar vehicles have become desirable. You will have it running in no time. Also, is it the 4 speed one scoot?
As for your turn signals, check the ground wires to the bulbs, they become rusty. Gil |
