    Default Kinetic Moped project

    So I bought another project, a Kinetic moped. No idea what year because all year models look the same, so im gonna estimate 1995 because its inspection expired in 1998. Heres some specs:

    Indian made.
    100+ MPG on 3% mix gas
    2-stroke 50cc engine
    1 gear
    .9 gal
    Speeds estimated 35 MPH

    It isnt HORRIBLY bad, but for $50 its fairly decent. Needs a lot of electrical work, body work and carb work. Everything needs worked on before I start school again, as I will need to get to and from my Automotive class so that is about 6 miles a day. Parts are not made and/ or hard to find so a lot of this will be custom made.

    I didnt get an odometer reading.








    Now that I have this and im on a deadline it moved to the top of my list and will be getting the most attention. I will continue to work on my Agway GT 11 when possible but its no longer my top project.

    [UPDATE 6/5]





    The nasty, dirty gas I drained. Gonna get some CLR and let it soak to get the rust out.

    Like I said they all looked the same no matter what year.

    Theres a sticker on it so it may need inspected but you dont need to register it since its not an official motorcycle.

    So im changing my guess that its an 05-05 to 95 cause the inspection sticker expired 6/6/98. Im not getting it inspected anyways cause it wouldnt pass, but if im only doing 6 miles a day it doesnt matter.

    I actually have to keep checking how I spell it cause I always want to spell Kinect lol.

    Looks like I may be doing this as a fun project and not a serious one. I am nearing $200 in parts on the whim that it MIGHT work.
