Hey all, first time here.
Never ridden a moped but am so fascinated with them and think they are super cool. I think i have a chance to buy a 87 Motomarina Sebring for a grand. One owner, has titles, 315 original miles on a Morini M1 engine. Apparently everything works, super clean. Any tips or words of encouragement? Is this a good deal? Excited to get into this.
Very nice ride.
Try to get it down to $700-800.
It's a quality bike, in a rare color..for a first moped that is a great find!
That is very pretty.
The motomarina sebring is one of the few american mopeds that i'd like to own. Always try to talk the price down, but a 1000 doesnt seem unreasonable these days.
Black is the least rare color of MM Sebrings. Here in NJ it's a $600 bike.
I see your profile says you are west coast? 1000 is within the range of the coastal pricing from what I have seen, but it doesn't hurt to ask for a lower price. A Morini M1 is an awesome engine and Sebrings are a strong bike. From the photo it looks in pretty good condition. All my bikes are Morini powered and they haven't let me down yet. :D Go for it.
1k seems expensive, but good mopeds can command such a price these days, being titled is huge too. If you can afford it, go for it, a great machine.
Sweet bike!!! Scoop it up.
Just like what everyone is saying, 1k isn't bad and be prepared to pay that, but trying to talk them down a little couldn't hurt.
That seller is selling a couple mopeds, they've been on craigslist for months down here in San Diego. Definitely talk them down.
I've got an 1980 M02 powered Sebring. Was my first moped and still one of my favorites. I paid 640-680 for it, had sat indoors for probably 25 years. Lot more M1 engines floating around which is always a plus. I don't know what bikes around there go for usually, but it's not a super rare color from what I know about the bikes. If it was the red one, then maybe.
nice mirror
It's a really nice bike. It's hard to find bikes with that low mileage. I've got a 79 Sears free spirit that is sell for 800. It has under 300 miles. I also have that maxi you emailed me about.

Can I quote you on that price when I snatch that white one off Rob? Lol
Did you get it? What happened? I need closure.
