@Aussie50 Yeah it's moving, I think the main problem was a really dirty carburetor because it runs a bit better now that i've cleaned it. just needs an air box now.
Disable the oil injector for sure, start pre-mixing with a 40:1 ratio. Don't worry about the air filter. Shit, buy a real exaust too.
That other mechanism is the oil pump, just remove it and use a quater and some jb weld to cover the hole.
also pimp it out with a 70cc Honda DR kit, 21mm Dellorto phbg carb, get a DIO CT 26mm intake, week-ends exaust. just spend like 800 bucks and you'll have a crazy ripper.
Oh, and Id probably pre-mix the gas when you get it running. I wouldn't trust the oil injection pump after sitting that long. Maybe that is just me though!
What a steal. Ive been looking for a moped/noped forever cheap, and NOTHING.
Sounds like a broken throttle cable is what is going on, or its come detached. As for the air filter, if you can't find an original airbox/filter assembly on eBay, just measure the opening and you can get a universal "cone type" air filter that is used on some quads/gopeds...
Make a video on its first start/getting it running, if you can, eight years is a long time!
Man i wish i could come across a score like that to romp around with. If it ran last time it should be an easy fix if all you need to do is clean the fuel system out. Its a great thing that the chain is not exposed like some mopeds. I was going to say that Alex might soil his drawers after seeing that lol.
This brings back alot of memories. I has a shit load of those when I was a kid.
Nice find

nice score :D, Honda's are unbeatable!
is the slide in the carb moving up and down with the throttle cable? it could just be a broken cable.
if its a 2 stroke it may have a automatic oiler on the other side of the carb ( the thing with the lever on it)

Being a Honda, it should have the model year on the chassis sticker in very large numbers.

A proper muffler would not be too hard to find.
These have a rather unique drive system; it's a chain-driven two-speed automatic transmission.
