 Là, je sèche. Le moteur ressemble à un Kreidler, mais je le retrouve pas dans mes archives, celui-ci...

Yes I do. They were produced by KTM of Austria for retail through a German department store chain. Since the department store got a special deal in lieu of warranty, the bikes were sold under this bogus brand name, so customers would contact the retailer instead of KTM if something broke. How this thing ended up in the States is beyond me. I would assume a stationed GI took it with him after his ToD in Germany had ended.

 Thank you for information, junkman :)

U.S. Foxi is still mystery.
May be this moped was sold by U.S.importer because it has US regal side-reflector, bigger taillamp
& "Foxi" is registered as vehicle brand in the state's vehicle code...

 Foxi is a brandname used by Sparta Netherlands. It's not KTM, it's not german, it's not austrian. It's dutch. This moped was sold as Sparta Buddy in europe and at least as Foxi GT and Flying Dutchman in the US.
Dutch version:
