Yep, bought a new (to me) ride.

Not too sure what I'm gonna do with it quite yet........but it should be a fun project.


Pictures to follow.












Aint she a bute?






Woo hoo! A 1978 Motron Sprint with a Motori Minarelli V1 motor! Talk about a screamer!

Actually its in real good condition......except it does not run. I'm gonna do some work and see if I can get it goin again.

So, what do you think?

Hmm. Wonder if you could strap a Blast motor under there?

Not sure what to do with it? Here's an idea (from an earlier post by me):

Ride the hell out of it. I'm sure it get's really good gas mileage. If you start searching the web there are a lot of moped and scooter sites that have overbore kits and performance parts. I have a 1990 Honda NS50F and it's fun trying to pump more power out of it.

I'm looking forward to the project. It will be fun if nothing else. I will keep you posted on the outcome.

I dont know how much I will end up riding it, but it would make a fun pit bike.

ring ding ding ding! Actually, kinda neat. Looks far better than the one I saw the other day. Had a gal that was 300lbs plus riding it, and the silencer had been removed from the expansion chamber. Poor bike was SCREAMING but only going about 15mph! I really need to start carrying a digcam!
