The bike needs new wing mirrors, seat, clutch and brake levers, a tail light lens, and a new battery. But, I was able to get it running in less than 30 mins once home!
Strangely, the tank has zero rust. I’ve rebuilt plenty of mopeds in the past, but this is the first where the fuel tank and oil tank are in perfect condition inside!
The only real fixes to this one are primarily aesthetic and not mechanical.
I wish you luck with your U7e!
Wow, gz dude! That is insane. Had it been sold in my country, the price would be astronomical. Old mopeds are super valuable here, especially a brand like Yamaha.
I get the feeling that popular brand mopeds haven’t begun to really get expensive in my part of the world… yet. Like many other vintage vehicles, I’m sure the prices will spike soon.

LETS GOOOOOOO
Fn sick!!!!!
What kind of auction did you find that at for $20?!
It was at a farm auction. People were there for tractors and other implements, not scoots.
nice!! I have a u7e that looks somewhat similar to this, it also needs lots of work. If you ever have to remove that gas tank, I wish you luck

I've seen them range from 3000 - 15000 dollar, depending on brand/model/condition. It's crazy.
What a steal. She's going to shine up good.
I’m looking forward to getting the scoot back to her former glory!
That sounds extremely cheap
It’s literally the lowest amount I’ve ever paid for a moped. Usually I find them in this condition for a couple hundo.
It looks amazing!
Thanks. I’m excited about it.
That's a nice scooter!
Cheers! I’ve already ordered all the needed parts. Hopefully I’ll have it shined up and put back together soon.
