I like it Drewpy but you know me and my love of mopeds.

It's a Gilera touring I think, as opposed to the trail version with cross braced bar, high front guard and upswept exhaust or the Enduro with its number plates and even higher upswept pipe.

I can see it's not a 'Touring moped' so it looks to be a 'Touring RS'

The seat looks short though? it does have pillion pegs. :unsure:

pick it up saturday, so i can get more info then
