Hi there !

any idea of which of model it is ?
Or post a pic...


Yes, djb. Motobecane was french before turning to MBK (in association with Yamaha), the Motobecane brand still exists in the US.
No more France related, I guess it's just the style of the name that sounds exotic to them US guys.

Looks like a repainted 1983 MX102, drop me a line if you wanna get rid of the wheels and tyres.
Not really sought after even in farnce as the original parts and decals are quite impossible to find.
