My neighbor has a 1977 batavus mobat and was wondering if i want to buy it, it looks good but has some electrical problems, for example turn signals dont work, brake light doesnt work etc. i already have a streetmate but was wondering if i should buy this off of him for a back up and kind of a project bike but i dont know anything about this specific moped, anyone have any opinions about it and a good asking price for it, thanks

Re: 1977 Mobat
cool looking rare ped. turn signals were not a factory option so take them off.

Brake light???...We don't need no stinking brake lights
Re: 1977 Mobat
Pretty nice bike IMO. If you dont jump on it..i would love to take a drive out and pick that up..
Re: 1977 Mobat
There is a black box for the battery on the tursignal kit for this that goes in the rear frame area. The turnsignal kit on this does not look like the Puch cat eye system. The battery may need to be replaced. The engines sound kind of like an electric motor on the ones that run good.
