50cc Chinese Scooter project – as is (SOLD)
$200.00 Original price was: $200.00.$160.00Current price is: $160.00.
Motor runs well when the scooter is started BUT the wires are all screwed up so it needs to be jump started. We replaced the battery, keyed ignition switch, and starter solenoid but we are moped mechanics, not scooter mechanics, so we never got it right. We have all of the plastic pieces as well to include with the sale. Good for parts, restore, or custom build. Our loss, your gain.
No warranty on as is mopeds.
All vehicles purchased online will be held at our flagship store on Michigan Avenue.
Pick up appointments can be made through the Facebook scheduler.
National shipping can be arranged through U-Ship at the buyer’s expense. We expect it to be $200-$300 depending on location.

Description
About selling “as is” project mopeds in 2020:
Detroit Moped Works has always felt confident profiting from our wonderful work, selling refurbished or rebuilt mopeds that we could stand behind and sell with a warranty.
As a matter of principle, Detroit Moped Works has always been opposed to “flipping” mopeds, or making money off of selling non-running mopeds, project mopeds, parts mopeds, and/or “as is” mopeds.
That said, due to what the media refers to as “these strange times” we are not able to get bikes built for sale this season. Further, we are repeatedly seeing “as is” mopeds selling on the peer to peer market for 2-3 times what we consider “Normal Market Rate.” For these two reasons we have decided to get some projects out of our shop and in the hands of folks who can hopefully get more bikes on the road.
Most of these mopeds will be priced above what we consider “normal market rate,’ but below the high prices we are seeing as the “new normal.” In the time honored tradition of “flipping,” we will be giving the most brief description possible, not promising anything of the individual vehicles, but promising you that you will have a wonderful time working on and learning about your new toy motorcycle! Or maybe it just sits as wonderful decor in your Man Cave or She Shed. Once you buy it, it is out of our hands and yours to enjoy!
Prices are firm / sales are final / bikes are as is.
Pick up appointments can be made through the Facebook scheduler.
