Pewter/White Metal Motoped Decorative Piece

Anybody something like this before? About 8" tall.
Thanks

 

Never heard the term 'motoped' before. I'd call it a scooter.

The 1960s were their heyday, I think your thing dates from then.

 

How about Moped....

Moped or Motorized Scooter (Class 6D)


A moped is a passenger vehicle having two or three wheels and a maximum speed of 70 km/h, equipped with an electric motor or a motor having a cylinder capacity of not more than 50 cc with an automatic transmission.

Operating a moped or scooter requires a Class 6D licence. Holders of all other classes (other than Class 8) of driver's licence or probationary licence are authorized to operate a moped or scooter.

The holder of a moped or motorized scooter (Class 6D) licence cannot drive any other vehicles.

 

That's a scooter, not a moped. A moped is more bicycle like. If anything it looks most like a Vespa rather than a Lambretta. But not a lot like.

Why they'd make a model that looks foreshortened and with impossible steering geometry is beyond me. It is uncomfortable to look at.

 

yes yes this is a moped....that little pic came with the description because it says ....or motorized scooter......so they just showed an example ..

I apologize for not using a second extra photo like the one above.
In the future .........( or , going forward..) I will be more precise when using photo's from web sites .

Can you ever forgive me ?

 

i guess there is a Motoped......of sorts....

 

Whatever they call that thing it is a motorbike.

Scooter, the body is the frame, moped, lady's bike type frame, motorbike, man's bike type frame.

 

that may be.......but she's got peddles !

 

C'mon Davey....it wouldn't hurt to give it a try !!!
Y'know.....around the town.....loose a few shafts at the occasional zombie.....

 

At the best this wouldn't even be considered " Argument Lite "......it's just the boys goofin around...

 

This looks like something Ive seen at Home goods. I almost bought one about this big that was an airplane,I was going to gift it to a nephew. They were made in india.
