100$ City Bike that I missed once on Craigslist, popped up later at a Motor City Riot Moped Monday for 100$ sold a few junk parts I had with me and bought this gem for 15$ out of my pocket! The kid mentioned that he thought it had some 50ish cc kit but he didnt know, so I brought it home, had a 55cc Autisa Kit/15 Amal/square port 15mm Puch Sha Intake. Cleaned her up re-built the bottom end added a Puch Techno Circuit (made the bracket with metal cut out of a 1950's stove side panel) jetted in the cold hardwired it up using the high/low beam switch for a kill. The seat was fun as well, whoever had it before me cut off the seat post, but it came with some longish seat and as I had nothing into it I decided to use it. Bought a door hinge from Homedepot and welded it to what was left of the post, the rest to the longish seat then made a little catch just above the tank so it wouldn't wiggle, but still rock forward to expose the tank. Switched out the stock 16in spokes for 17in Sachs snowflakes, re-geared to 10x39 with blue springs!
