MOPED ARMY

Not familliar with this software ;-)

easy to work on mopeds. if you know bikes and you know cars and your friend knows motorcycles you wont have too hard of a time figuring it out. looks like youre going to be ok since you havent cheaped out i can tell as youre cleaning the gas tank which saves a world of trouble. that engine kitted will give you so much torque and speed its not funny. a friend dan sabat (also a khz) threw a reed valve athena kit on that bike and it flew without even being portmatched.

the rims tend to peel so id get it painted or powdercoated along with the bike. i dunno what youre going for but you can do anything from making it a stock cruiser or a souped up speed demon but that bike will be easy to find parts and mopedarmy is definitely the primary source of your future knowlege in mopeds

Yeah, I'm not into cheaping out on projects, and this done right will probably be 10X cheaper than my cars.

I'm painting all of the parts of the bike that I'm keeping, including the wheels. I'm going to paint them an awesome slightly darker gold with metal flakes, He actually had it leftover from some wheels he painted.

The frame will be black with clearcoat.

I'd like to put slightly taller chrome handlebars and possibly a slightly longer fork (I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not)

I don't want to modify the engine on this one yet as it will be my first moped, I'd like to rebuild the engine though. If I can do a slight performance upgrade that won't overly alter reliability I'd do it.

Can I buy reproduction decals for this anywhere?

Thanks for the help thus far guys..

Ok, shall we start a part's list??

Coil with wire, front brake cable, speedo cable, front brake handle, starting clutch lever, side covers, spark plug, in line fule filter. looks pretty good though

and FYI the brake on the mags are differeent than the spoked wheels.

50plus, the 5 stars have the same brakes as the spokes, if i'm not mistaken. Its the snowflakes that are different.

The za50(2 speed motor) is not the best motor in the world to kit.
