I nabbed this ped a couple of weeks ago on accident. When I purchased this ped it didn't have the motor on it, the motor mounts were all bent and wiring ripped up... I spent a couple of hours on it yesterday (Saturday 4th) and got it all buttoned up.
Things I did:
Replaced Engine Mount
Replaced Springs and hook
Retrofitted a dellorto
Fixed Wiring
Fitted a taillight cover for the brake light
Added a car horn
I have to say this bike runs pretty awesome & starts very easy..

This was my first Moped. Its a 1978 Puch Maxi MKII
It started life as a Gold Maxi (seen below)
|
Purchased my first moped |
|
After about a week of owning it, I decided to start to work on it.
I stripped the bike down and had it powder coated.
|
Sand blasted and ready for a new color |
Within 1 day i got the frame back and started the rebuild process.
|
Rebuilding the Maxi | |
|
Here's the end result. (kinda)
Since the last update I have added the tank decals, 15mm carb and Hi-Comp head.

I picked up this diamond in the rough for 100 bux, running status was unknown upon purchase.
I got it home fueled it up and turned it over, it started!
1978 Sachs Balboa
After I got it running, I fabricated an air box for it to breath right and sold it for 200 bux.
UPDATE: The Bike has been painted blue, I will post pictures of it soon.
For whatever reason I started looking on craigslist for a Suzuki FA50.. After about 2 mins of searching I found this ad for a blue Suzuki FA50 asking price 125.00.. So I emailed the guy and ended up picking up the bike for 50 BUX.
It's running status was unknown and the guy said it wold need re-wiring, he also mentioned he was gonna turn it into a chopper but ran out of time..(geesh)
THE BIKE LiVES
So far I have invested in cleaning out the carb, also purchased a set of used forks for it as well as a new set of brakes.
Total cost 120.00

My brother purchased this bike as a rolling chassis, slowly I helped him find an A3, the exhaust, coil, carb and tail light.. Finally after almost 2 months we got it running. (Thanks to Shaun @ Myrons Mopeds) he helped us with the fly wheel and points.

2 Months Prior to running |

I picked up this GEM free! Some lady saw me walking with my moped during a carshow in Covina and asked me if I wanted a moped she had sitting in her garage.
