The Raleigh Runabout Super de Luxe model was a version of the Runabout introduced in 1966 which was comprehensively equipped. The original Raleigh Runabout was introduced in 1963 and is a popular bike in the Uk.

Highlights:

- 1969 Raleigh Runabout Super de Luxe in Original Condition

- Has the legshields which are quite solid, and despite a little surface rust in places they are very straight with no horrible bumps or creases

- This model has the electric horn under the seat

- The rear rack was also an extra fitted to this model

- The Veglia speedometer appears all complete. It is an extremely attractive looking extra. I do not know if it works, but Huret ones are available new.

- I have not cleaned the bike it is as I put it in dry storage many years ago, and will require a full overhaul. The engine is solid, but there are plenty of ways of freeing these up, most parts are available and you can even buy pistons, barrels and complete new engines with electronic ignition to fit this model from Classic Moped Spares.

Summary

A Raleigh Runabout de Luxe complete with its horn, speedometer, rack and legshields which is in need of restoration. A rare desirable moped once finished. This bike was in the area filmed by Channel 4's TV Find It Fix It Flog it in 2016 with motorcycle eccentric Henry Cole. Whilst it was not the star of the show, it is a true British Classic Moped.
