Thanks Zippy. Do you know if they were built good or slapped together to make a quick buck
Don't know. Just reading from my reference books. I don't remember having seen anything negative about the Colt.
Hey,JSailor! I have an old Colt II I took the engine*(2-speed Franco-Morini) off of and put on my Motomarina Sebring.Colts had very nice seats(REAL LEATHER),good suspensions and were tough,but just a little plain looking.I liked the top-tank design but they don't compare in looks or carrying capacity to a Sebring or Motobecane Moby.They are quality bikes though.Before I took the engine off mine,I took a VERY long trip(100 miles or more on it)up hill and down,and several other trips and I don't remember having any problems.Also,it had sat for many years and it started right up with a little T.L.C..
