This... Is... (no longer) SPARTA! ! ! ! ! ! (new peds)
This is....
The bike is trashed, i mean, its falling apart. So i decided to help it out...
I also found these also bolts on the frame that allowed me to take the frame apart. Very Helpful for fitting it in a tiny car.
(i cant believe it fit. }
..and back home...
Details - 197? Sparta. With a Sachs 504 motor.
The guy i bought it from said it has been sitting in the back of his shed for 7 years. When we pulled it out, i noticed a major problem right off the bat...
No spark Plug...
He said the person he got it from took it all apart and didnt know what he was doing. so it just kinda got pieced it together. This guy bought it, then never touched it.
The motor is beyond seized. This is going to be a mess to fix. I have the cylinder soaking in PB blaster right now.

Not a clue. if i can get it running, im going to keep it. If the motor is *, im going to sell the frame to a friend for a crazy project he has planed.
Im not sure what im going to do yet. It all depends on what i can do with the motor.
oh and come on, everyone wants a rat ped they can beat around on.

I am not a mechanic, nor do I play one on TV. Actually my advice is probably worth slightly less than what you pay to view it.
well, as much as i love to do that, there is a few reason i cant.
the biggest one, Money.
Its the reason my tomos has not been upgraded any more. Do to the falling economy the job i should be working at right now got delayed. Its been delayed so many times now i dont now if its ever going to happen. Now im just looking for anything i can find.
