"This moped was purchased fully renovated from a collector in the Netherlands and has been part of the current owner’s collection for the past eight years."

Description

Testi Motorcycles was based in Bologna and began manufacturing 49 cc lightweight machines in 1949. In addition to these small-displacement models, the company also produced lightweight motorcycles, mopeds, and mini-scooters.

Testi models were also built under licence in France by Gitane and marketed as Gitane-Testi. In Sweden, they were sold by the Standard concern under its own brand name, while in Germany the historic Horex name was revived to market a range of stylish and eye-catching Testi-Horex models.

This particular bike spent its early life in the Netherlands, where it was fully renovated over ten years ago. It was purchased by the current owner eight years ago and added to his moped collection. Since then, it has only been lightly used and has mostly been kept in storage. The moped will be delivered fully serviced and ready to ride.

Overall, the bike presents in excellent condition throughout. The only deviation from standard is the fitment of a smaller seat; a larger seat that wraps over the tank was more standard.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    All mechanical components are in excellent condition. The bike was not started during the photo session, as it has not been run for several years, but it will be fully reviewed and serviced prior to delivery. The only noted imperfections are two small, older scratches on the engine cover. It is also fitted with its original chrome hand pump, and the speedometer is in MPH rather than KPH.

  • Interior condition:

    Good rubber handgrips and foot pegs, complemented by a nice seat.

  • Exterior condition:

    A super cool-looking moped finished in its original silver paintwork with orange accents, showing no signs of dents, damage, or rust — a condition that is equally reflected in the paintwork. All chrome details, including the wheels and spring trim, are bright and shiny throughout.

  • General condition:

    Beautifully designed with a mini café-racer style, this moped oozes charm and character. Riding it, you’ll feel like the king of the road — and when not in use, it would look just as good displayed in an office or living room.

Auction information

General information about the condition of the vehicles .
  • At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
  • During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
Important to know before placing your bids!
  • Once you have called in an item and the reservation price is reached we want you to deposit the entire purchase amount into our client funds account before retrieval can take place.
  • When you need to retrieve a called in object we want you to examine it carefully. If you consider that the item does not match our description you do not need to complete the purchase. In this case the deposited purchase sum and the entry fee are refunded.
  • If you do not examine the item on the spot the call charge will be debited, but you do not have to complete the deal.
  • If you make the entire purchase exclusively at a distance you have 14 days to cancel, but must return the item at your own expense.
  • Your shipping costs and other costs are not reimbursed when the right of withdrawal is exercised. Swedish court applies.
  • For items that have not been collected within 14 days storage costs may be charged.
