YAMAHA FS1E / SS 50 sports moped 1973 barn find

This is a very early Yamaha SS 50 which was the forerunner to the FS1E . Honda already it's own SS50 so the Yamaha was re badged and the FS1E was born . This is a genuine barn find . it was found covered in dust after being stood in a barn for many years until recently found . This popsical purple fizzy is number 455 off the production line making it an early 1973 model . The moped is in very good original shape with only the indicators missing . the tank is very clean inside . I have had it running but I think it needs a new plug . all the gears engage . nbsp;the moped has covered 12681 km's which calculates to 7925 miles . The fizzy is on the DVLA's Nova data base so it will be easy to register the bike at a cost of ?55 and you will be the first UK registered owner . The moped can be collected from PE22 8JD . There is no reserve and no buy it now . Happy bidding but  PLEASE ONLY BID ON THIS MOPED IF YOU HAVE THE FUNDS AND YOU INTEND TO COLLECT THE BIKE . I AM HAPPY TO WORK WITH YOUR OWN COURIER . THE MOPED WILL ONLY BE RELEASED AFTER I HAVE CLEARED FUNDS . I WILL REQUIRE A NON REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT OF ?100 PAID AT THE END OF THE AUCTION . PAID BY BANK TRANSFER OR PAYPAL . THE BALANCE TO BE PAID WITHIN ONE WEEK . I AM FLEXIBLE ON COLLECTION .
