Wristpin 400 #37 Posted February 18, 2018 Looking very smart. Interested in the "bumper bar" around the carb. I don't recollect seeing one on any of the very few machines that came our way. I wonder if the carbs were prone to damage if the machine was tipped back to change the rotors etc. 1 pmackellow reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pmackellow 2,738 #38 Posted February 26, 2018 Had a day off work today, that was handy as I could battle through the snow to deepest Middlesex to pick up another Gemini. This one will be kept as a rotavator to make a matching pair with the barrow unit Starts first pull so no issues there It also has the elusive belt cover decal so I will be sending that off to Titch for some copies for both machines Here's some photos... 3 Cub Cadet, Alan and HeadExam reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
