Fuel Type: Gas


The JCPenney Pinto was a moped imported for sale in the JCPenney catalog from the Austrian manufacturer Kromag, with a Puch E50 engine. The Pinto was the top of the line for the JCPenney moped models (the Swinger being the lower-cost model). All Pintos have a chromed tank, a 40mph speedometer, and stainless steel fenders.  The standard Pinto was available in red or yellow. All models featured decals on the tank stating the model name, and a sticker on the flywheel indicating the horsepower rating.  Dimensions are length 66.9, width 27.1654, height 40.15748, weight 103.617. Owners of the Pinto will find the Puch repair manual from '80/'81 to have matching engine, wiring, carburetor, and timing settings information. Fans of the Pinto applaud that it is "solid and lightweight." Like all American Puch mopeds, they were available in 1, 1.5, and 2hp ratings.  This was a 1.5hs (25mph) moped to start - BUT WHO CARES ABOUT THAT – THIS MOPED HAD A COMPLETE ENGINE OVERHAUL AND NOW HITS 40MPH SO YOU CAN USE IT ON REAL ROADS! Per the parts list below, this bike has undergone a complete rebuild so the motor now features a needle bearing racing crank shaft (ByeBye Brass Bushing), aftermarket cylinder with much larger ports (So Much More Air Flow!), high compression head, 15mm carburetor and intake (up from the stock 12mm), 24mm performance exhaust (from 19mm stock), and a CDI electronic ignition (No More Stupid Points!)   Along with the engine overhaul, this ped has a slew of new parts from new safe modern tires, new cables, grips, pedals, etc.  This bike will be tons of fun for years to come!
