Anchors away!
Re: Anchors away!

400€ for a puch that has 0€ in valuable parts left? If so, i'm going to ship garbage to Switzerland.
Re: Anchors away!
Well, maybe not 400, but you can sell a good frame for 200 sometimes, this was sold a couple of months ago for 350: https://www.tutti.ch/de/vi/aargau/zurzach/fahrzeuge/motorradzubehoer/puch-maxi-s-7502-rahmen/24564129
EDIT: why useless? you could still probably use the Frame, fork,
Swingarm, Hubs, Light, Whole Handlebar and Accesory.
BTW. Puch X30 2 Speed Manual Bikes cost 2500+ in good Condition here, and for some reason there are actualy people paying this much. Obviously there still are a couple of cheap ones. (edited)

All those things are rusty, i wouldn't pay a euro for rusty puch parts when i can get non rusty parts for a few euro's.
I would love a puch X30, 2500 is a bit steep but i'm shure a good X30 would get you at least a 1000€ here.
Re: Anchors away!
Well, a restored maxi goes for at least 2'000 here, if you realy wan't to make money, import classic Kreidler's, the Duch took a lot of the RS Models from here and they now cost 5k upward's sometimes.
Re: Anchors away!
Yeah we did import a lot of Kreidlers from Switzerland, a real RS is worth somewhere between 2000 and 3000 euro's.
A fully original maxi isnt worth more than 500/700€ here, there's just way too many of them.
It's surprising people pay that much in Switzerland with all the restrictions, but salary's are higher there so it might just be that.
Re: Anchors away!
There s a Boom in Moped Prices, it's just insane to me that anyone would pay this much for a Moped, i am probably never going to buy one for those Prices, my Hercules was 420, my Red Maxi was 500, my other Hercules was 100, an other Hercules i bought and still have laying around was 220 and my black maxi was a Gift.
Re: Anchors away!
Yeah moped prices have gone through the roof here too, it's nearly impossible to find a running Puch for under 200€ these days while when i first started looking for a moped almost no Puch cost more than 200€. I paid 40€ for my first maxi and the most expensive one i ever bought was 120€ i believe.
The most i ever paid for a moped was 800€ for a Kreidler, but i sold it for more than a 1000.
Re: Anchors away!
At least the guy pulled it out of the field and put it on craigslist, another 10 yrs and the frame would be rotted through, if it isn't already.
Re: Anchors away!
Tbh, if i could get that bike like that for that money i would probably buy it, lower it to the ground, put new Tires and a taillight on it, slap a Supermaxi Engine under it and would just roll with it like that, hope someone does exactly that to it, evel would reuse the Seat.
Re: Anchors away!
I got a way better usable maxi mkll frame with ok decals that just sits outside for the past few years getting bird crapped on along with my van fender and rim (need to get a cat again) that you can have for free, just cross the Atlantic and come and get it
Re: Anchors away!
Another real looker. I really love the engine.
Re: Anchors away!
It's got sweet sweet controls and my nickname is Dan so the headlight is custom for me.
I should huh?
