I just got a Cimmati red city bike.  Looking at the pictures it looks like a Cimatti Basket Genova. Are there people interest in buying this model.  I believe is from 1962.

............
Here are the pictures of a Cimatti I have.  Do you think  a person would be interest in buying this item or how can I make functionable?

Thank you for any information you can provide for me,

Mildred Berberena
Eastpointe, MI USA

You'll need to take it to a bikeshop to get it running, I expect, but there is quite likely very little wrong with it as it appears to be in fine condition. Yes, you would have no trouble selling it, but I cannot put a value on it.

The page of classic motorcycle price resources at http://www.cybermotorcycle.com/valuations may prove informative.

Cimatti Boy Racer
Does anyone have any knowledge of what I believe was called the "Boy Racer"? In the early 1970's I purchased one in Oklahoma City. It was 50cc with dual exhausts, 19mm delorto carb, clip on style handlebars and went 50 to 60 mph.

Fuel Mixture
1977 Cimatti 50cc City Bike
Anyone know what the fuel mix ratio is on these 2-cycle bikes?
Conneaut, OH USA

Modern Minarelli engines use a 50:1 mixture, according to http://www.scooter-freaks.nl/persoscoots/viewperso.php?id=4448
Earlier models almost certainly use a higher ratio - I would guess that a 25:1 ratio would be a good starting point, and you could certainly go leaner with a synthetic oil.

June 4, 2001
I was reading a old posting on the Website. At that time you had a problem with it acting like it was running while pedaling it.  If you haven't already fixed it, there is a starting clutch on the handle bar. It sound like it might be engaged. Try a linkage adjustment to begin with.  I am interested in buying old Cimatti City Bikes. Please email me if you know anyone has one to sell. michaelphx at earthlink.net

I have a 1977 Cimatti City Bike which still runs like a charm.  The only significant problem is the rusting fuel tank, which raises hell with the carburetor. I'm about to try one of those KREEM repair kits to see if the problem goes away.  I also have the original owner's manual, although it's not very helpful.  I have scanned it and have it in electronic form.  If anyone wants a copy, just send me an email and I'll be happy to share it.  --  liebs at concentric.net

I bought a brand new red Cimatti city bike in Santa Cruz, CA in 1978, right at the beginning of the moped craze. Tricked it out with the aux. gas tank that made it look more like a real motor bike. I had test driven many bikes and thought the Cimatti had the best combo of price, looks and reliability. Heavy as hell, though. It rode much better then a Puch, had hardly any vibration. I rode that thing into the ground, had lots of fun.  It finally conked out after 2800 miles or so. I Left it parked in a crawl space under a house in Santa Barbara in 1983, it may still be there.  It was a great bike, wish I still had it.  --  E Payton, Goleta CA  --  espayton at impulse.net

January 16, 2000
I was young when we got a Cimatti but I still learned to ride on it.  My uncle who was in the Merchant Marines brought back several bikes from over seas new in the boxes, some Cimatti 50's that were cool they had twin pipes!  and ours the Cimatti 100 two stroke single street bike.  Looking back the bike did pretty well considering we had to make our own parts or go with out it.  I know I rode it many miles without any oil in the lower end due to the clutch slipping and it never did have a trans problem!

I killed the bike learning how to work on it when I really didn't know what I was doing, and also making trails in the back 40 and riding MX on a streetbike.

When this bike was new it was a sharp looking bike deep burgundy and white. Now that I've grown up I own and operate a motorcycle shop and it all started on a Cimatti.

No special info here just came across your site and wanted to post about the good times I had.
