Dac, its a 1996 Kinetic, i dont know much about it... but a neighbor came by and said it was a good moped :?

What do you guys reckon I should ask for it? It needs work (pipe, pedal, keys, etc...), but i live in a college town, with moped friendly streets, and year round riding...

My house is old... Like turn of the century...It used to be a dirt floor with concrete strips where the car tires would roll, over the years we filled in the spaces. We also took down a center divider wall, and replaced it with a header and support columns..

Yeah I was gunna ask about the weird concrete flooring as well. Nice cleanup man. It sounds like a no-brainer, but clean your work space after ever little project you do, and you will be SOOOOO much more productive.

Problem I just found out is that the ex owner destroyed the starter so I need a new one of those too.
