Hey man that is a great looking bike. I need your help. I was just given that same exact bike by a friend of mine and he said i could have it if i could get it to work.

The problem is it wont run, do you need the battery in it for it to start? If not what is the battery used for? Let me know, thanks

[vintageyellow71]

Thanks for asking. The Btry is for the blinkers and headlight. It has a magneto for spark. You need to pull the carb off and clean it all out, the tank needs cleaning also. It's not to hard to get running. You may have already done it.

I would get if for sure. You can fix these things really easy. Thats not a bad price.

My 1980 Vespa Grande would have that for lunch! Just kidding, your moped looks great-- The going green, I don't know, there is probably a lot of junk coming out of that tailpipe, regardless of how well it is tuned up.

[vintageyellow71]

your right. It does put out some crap that's for sure
