UltraWomble Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 One of the dentists I work with suggested that I have Buyers Tourettes given that I am currently trawling eBay / Gumtree / Preloved and various forums for a cheap moped to do the coast to coast run on. I suppose I might have, given i have bought 4 PTW's in the last 5 months, and now want another. If anyone knows of a cheapish moped ( cosmetically can be an utter hound, but needs to run OK) please support me and point me in the direction of it.... Its a recognised medical affliction ( well the dentist thinks it is and thats good enough for me). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Six-cylinder Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 I tried to buy a moped for Shitfest but they are lots of money, I give up and bought a broken one so I can at least dream about: When I get me moped out on the road I'm gonna ride, ride, ride! When I get me moped out on the road I'm gonna ride, ride, ride! When I get me moped out on the road Ain't nobody gonna tell me where to go. No!

panhard65 Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 Step this way I am collecting some prime French peds next week. All Motoconforts from the 50's. I am told they all turn over and fingers crossed will go without too much trouble. I have a buyer interested in the blue one. I am after a couple of hundred each if they are any good but open to offers. Six-cylinder, Faker and UltraWomble 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UltraWomble Posted June 10, 2016 Author Share Posted June 10, 2016 This looks bonkershttp://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Honda-50-moped-/182166104425?hash=item2a69f22969:g:N8EAAOSwnFZXWsHF Started out life as a Honda Vision Met In. Panhard, that bike looks interesting, but as I say its the "running" bit that worries me. The rest of it isnt too much of an issue as it would either get stripped & painted yellow, or lime green - I still cant make my mind up yet what I fancy. Possibly the green....

UltraWomble Posted July 5, 2016 Author Share Posted July 5, 2016 Still in the market for a sub £400 bike. Can someone clarify the daylight MOT rule thing for me - does it only apply to bikes registered before 1986 or any bike? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazoli Posted July 5, 2016 Share Posted July 5, 2016 There is no such thing as a daylight mot, all a bike needs is a numberplate with a reflector stuck to it and a horn (which must emit a continuous tone), a brake light is also advisable (for safety if anything but it's not compulsory), if lights are fitted they must work. I have mot'd a couple of track bikes and lack of lights is just an advisory. UltraWomble 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UltraWomble Posted July 5, 2016 Author Share Posted July 5, 2016 Just got my eye on a couple of shitheaps on ebay which would be fine if the lights and indicators were just binned off.Would only commute to / from work anyway in the hours of daylight if I did use it sans lights.
