Looks like it to me. That thing is a serious score at $50.

Cotter pin cranks = A and B model if I am not mistaken. They switched to 1 pc later

did you get the original wheels too?
76 Mongeese
Very nice. Wouldn't that be a '75?...the year with seat strut holes and 3 piece. Eventhough they're not being used.

Sorry to hear that. However, I did pick this up and another bicycle he had. Sorry for this. I had emailed him last week on it.

I was just too lazy to buy it, and I am working in that city.

Well here is everything I got from the guy today.






Looks right at home. I also have an Orange B Model as well.

Another one I got a few month's back. A Camel Bike.

You could have got it for 40 I bet.
Moosegoose Nick
I probably could of, but I was willing to pay him his price. Why try to screw someone out of money if you are willing to pay the asking price? The kid looked like he could of really used the money.

Sheesh, it's $50, give the guy a break, lolol.
Mark 'Gonzo' Summers
Nope, it looks to me like a Honda Moto-Bike...

Very cool, that was my dream bike when I was 10, never did get one. A year later I got a Webco, with a regular seat, that at the time I hated cause it looked like a ten speed bike seat and not moto. Took a lot of talking from my Dad to convince me that a lighter seat would be faster. Big time $50 score.

I was kidding.

The moto bike in the first pic is a B model. You can tell by the the extended shock area to bolt on the longer seat struts. The other moto bike is a C model with the 1 piece crank. Very cool score you got there.

I traded my Yamaha for a Schwinn Sting. Still have the Sting but at the same time wished I'd kept the Yamaha.
