This was a $800. craigslist find.I added the exhaust, body work,paint,belts, oil and a tune up.For $1600 its great little scooter.

(Not that I'm biased, of course 8)) Sometime maybe you'll tell us why the painter didn't do the paint job-- but it looks like you did just fine on your own. --Deborah

I went to get it after eight weeks he had the body work finished but no paint. He gave the Blata back and body work for free.I painted it in my shed with a spray can.
