Well yesterday was the day my Grandpa said I can take this beast and do whatever I want :D
I love antique stuff and this piece of Soviet gold is invaluable - it is very rare these days.
Now it looks like a heap of scrap, might not even work anymore because it was staying for many years outside - it was grown into the ground, I had to use a hammer with a shovel and a lot of power to get it out. I'll have to take a look when it's warmer and not so windy, but I suspect that I'll have to replace almost every part in it, might even have to replace the motor too, but I'm up for it :D
Read about it more here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Riga_(moped) (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Riga_(moped))
When I'll start repairing it I'll write everything on my blog. It should be soon :P
And here are pictures of my thing:

Your link is busted, the ) isn't in the tag
Nice moped. I like the look of it, it looks more like a motorcycle than a moped. I hope you get it working

Thanks for the notice on the link :P
I'll get crackin' on this baby when the weather gets warmer. Now I'm just freezing my hands because I have to work outside :D

Looks cool. I'm trying to imagine you riding on this thing.

Nice find.
I remember how me and my friends used to ride one of those all three together at once. But that was long time ago... back in my hillbilly days.
