No idea but good luck. That thing is sweet! When its all prime it'll make an awesome cafe racer tomahawk thing. Is it a 110? Or like 50 or 70?

Well I finally found the metal plaque with the details, it was under the gas tank.... Its is a 1992 Jawa Alleycat 50cc 2 stroke moped made in prague, czech, has 3145 miles on it. The wiring is still sort of confusing to me, lots of wires connect to multiple things unlike the modern scooters we have today that have wires for each connection. It uses the same spark plug that lawn mowers use. I think it was stored for a long time and forgotten about because it seems they lost the wire for the ignition coil>spark plug connection and replaced it with another wire that does not quite fit the spark plug or ignition coil. It was raining today so I didn't really mess with it, probably will tomorrow. The only thing it is missing it seems is a seat, but I'm sure I can figure something out for that.

This is one VERY COOL project!!!!!!
I love giving new life to a vehicle.
Not trying to put anyone here down but, this may NOT be the BEST possible forum for advice on a real Moped build..........
As you know this forum is Scooter Heaven.. Mopeds are often a totally different beast.
May I suggest you check out the MOPEDARMY site/forums ? Granted a 1992 is a bit young (for a moped) but JAWA knowledge is commonplace in the ARMY.........JMHO
Again, I'm not trying to disrespect the Dawgs around here, for this specific project, Better information maybe found elsewhere.......
GOOD LUCK and PLEASE keep us updated!!!!!!!!

Looks like an awesome find and a very fun project.
Best advice I can offer is start a notebook and make sketches and take notes. A multimeter will be your friend for a long while.
