Fuck the massive archive of photos of mopeds hosted on this very site, I want to see those rad pics of super wicked normal ass shit that comes on every moped. Let's get pedal arms, swing arms, throttle controls, brake cables, gas caps, maybe even some M6 bolts and choke levers!
SWEET RAD ASS!
Would plastic valve stem caps be appropriate for this thread?
Boning militia! Show me your dicks!
Jimbo, that would be
perfect.
Matt, I just got erection.

Like I need an excuse to take more pics of my mopeds. Be careful what you wish for, I love taking close-up detail shots of aesthetically interesting bits and pieces.
Glenn, you got spokes, swing arm, stock shocks,, plastic valve stem cap, brake cable and partial pulley all in one shot?! You are like a wizard!
What about that sprocket?
These are custom cafe racer parts.
fail

what mobylette is that? Have more pics?
Yeah, it's a 61 Moby approx. plungeur I have more pix. I don't have the ped anymore.
COOL STORY BRO HERE:
I was given the used car high pressure sales job to buy the moby from a "friend". I wanted it and put my wife and I thru hard times to pay for it. I later resigned myself to selling/trading it and some other stuff for silly shit like rent and food. After I "sold" it, (traded for an Italian Harley) I was then subjected to severe, phony ass kissing, back patting and buddying up by the very same "friend" who eventually got his greasy dickbeaters on the moby as well. Daily phone calls, nightly emails, long stories of riding a similar bike and general but clearly borderline psychopathic pestering have a way of wearing a normal person down. My "friend" weaseled-to-win by going to the guy I did the trade with and shit talking to the guy about how he (the Harley seller) got ripped off in the trade. My "friend" ended up with the moby and the Harley and after all his wistful proclamations about how much he loved the Harley; sold it. I guess it's an "ends justify the means" kinda modern progressive attitude that can allow such an abject squelching of conscience.
Later, that same "friend" warned me about giving up too much info on a '85 Puch Maxi LS deal I was working on. He was concerned someone might scoop it. Deliriously ironic. (edited)
i don't comprehend the need for food, rent, heck, i'll find you another wife if you can find a moby like ours for reasonable.
"not squirreling away more extra money, and insisting it be earmarked ped only money (bills will always be there)"
The moby is allegedly in town still, probably languishing in a shed.
It's been in more guys' hands than a $2 whore.
Edit: Boring minutiae of moby parts: (edited)
1959 Mobylette on Craigslist for $550. Wish I could scrape together enough to scoop this one up.
1330 miles on mine, cosmo.
point is, mobys are fairly common, even the older ones.
but find the rarer av78 et al.
