Barn Find Trade Deal

Post image
10 Upvotes

I do handyman and construction kind of work and a client has this in his barn. Mentioned to him prior to know about this bike that I was looking for a project and he said he had this moped. He says it’s been there since they bought the house. He was going to give it to me for free but I kind of felt bad since he has a bunch of work done around the property so we settled on a deal, I’ll fix his barn door so it opens and closes like it should (it’s a security door and the top corner won’t clear for some reason so it doesn’t close) and I get to keep this bike.

On the back it looks like it has a license plate but it has 7 digits (I’m in CA so 7 is typical for today’s plates but i thought they had 5-6 back then for motorcycles). Also seems to have functional pedals making it a bicycle, or motorbike. It also has a ā€œplateā€ below the seat saying it’s a bicycle license plate and has the numbers on it, and says it expires Dec. 1984.

If anyone happens to know about these bikes, I’d definitely like to know more about it, such as make/model or year and such. Also, do these usually have a title or something like that for California? It was here since the guy bought the house so I’m not sure how I’d go about getting the title. Would I just get a Bill of Sale from him like usual? Also for starting the bike, it’s just pedal and let go of a clutch or something and it starts right? Looks similar to a motorbike I had and that’s how it started

It’s amazing to me that it’s in such good condition being that’s it’s been abandoned since around 1984 I’m guessing. After sleeping for 42+ years, it’s time to wake it up and bring it back to life

My engine seized a couple weeks ago, i finally got around to tsking the cylinder off and splitting the crankcase and what happened was the big end bearing turned itself into glitter bending the wrist pin in the process

Why is my moped stalling?

2 Upvotes

Hello! I have a 1980 Sachs Prima moped. I have an issue where it likes to stall occasionally whenever I come to a stop (Intersections, stop signs, etc.) and then I have to get it started back up. Im thinking it has to do with the clutch/decomp, because when it stalls, it will behave as if the clutch lever is pulled in (tires very stiff to turn instead of freely turning) and if it stalls like this, I could literally just roll it down the road and start it back up without the lever pulled in. So, I just want to know what I can do to fix this issue. I'm relatively new to mopeds and want to and am willing to learn about them. So if anyone has any ideas, that would be great! I will have pictures to focus on the issue. Thanks!
