It has a Sachs Saxonette engine, a 50cc fan-cooled engine, producing a whopping 1,5 horses. It's paired with a 2 speed automatic gearbox, that just refuses to shift properly sometimes, especially when cold. It has a top speed of 30km/h!
The blinkers didn't have any relay stock on these, so you had to keep turning them on and off manually. Same story with the windshield wiper (missing on mine), you had to turn it back and forth with a small lever above the windshield. Unless you paid extra for the "deluxe" version, which had an electric windshield wiper, a reverse gear and an electric starter (mine is pull start).
The rear wheel has almost 0 weight over it, so as soon as the snow comes down, it just starts sliding around all over the road. No suspension in the rear either, the swing-arm is just mounted on rubber bushings. The front suspension is just two fat rubber bands. There are no bump-stops, if you bottom out, your front tires just rub the fenders.
The brakes are 130mm cable operated diskbrakes all around. They really suck, especially mine, because they are far from straight.
The cab opens up forward to let you in and out, and the handle bars are therefore connected with a thick cable. These are known to wear out, mine is really shit, but there are no new ones being made.
The chassis is steel, but the cab is fibreglass. It vibrates like crazy when driving, and makes a horrible noise. Hearing protection is a must.
Mine is not 100% stock, and the things I have swapped out are: Engine, I put in a sachs 50/3LS, 3 speed manual with about 5 wild horsepower. (drove it with the stock engine for about a year though). The exhaust is also swapped out for a bigger one, 32mm instead of the stock 28. The underglow is not stock. I also added a small plate with an ignition lock and three switches to control my underglow in the cab. I'm thinking about upgrading the brakes to hydraulic too, but that has yet to happen.
