It's a moped, it was on my porch when I got home tonight, Very..uh....interesting looking bike to say the least.......Anyone know anything about them? It's too dark to really go out and look at it, I dunno if it runs or not.......guess I'll add that to my projects list with the pocket bike and the dune buggy :/

Haha. I found one at a yard sale last year and actually had to PAY 5 bucks for it. Damn.



It wasn't running at the time, but a little cleaning and tinkering with the carby got it running pretty good. She'll fly--23 mph on the top end.



Just make sure the fuel feed is good and the main jet isn't clogged with crap. Also, there's probably a screen in the banjo bolt fitting on the carby. It probably needs cleaning.
