Folding Scooter – 1968 Minimo Joky

In Germany, Less than 5k, Scooter by AbhiLeave a Comment

The Minimo Joky is a rare folding scooter with a frame made out of aluminum. Because it weighed 60 pounds, it was apparently quite popular with yacht and glider owners – the former would get around the harbor and the latter would use it to get to a phone after landing. They’re nearly impossible to find in the US and are even somewhat rare in its home market of Germany.

The 48cc two-stroke ILO motor produced about 1.7 horsepower and was capable of propelling the scoot to about 18 miles per hour. This example was imported by a previous owner in 1985, and the seller has had it for the last 4 years. He or she runs it once a year and it’s said to be in good running shape. It has a rebuilt carb, and a few new parts – tires, tubes, and chain.
