 Re: 2CV motorcycle
Oh look at the colour of the chassis  wasnt someone asking why their Dyane chassis was Blue celeste but the car wasnt. perhaps the factory had a bucket that needed used up.

 Re: 2CV motorcycle
I think one of the brake drums is pressed against the rear wheel, and drives it like a roller. The other drum is locked up. Don't know why anyone ever shows this picture when they're talking about this... :S

 Re: 2CV motorcycle
