I can imagine; I never had a small Honda OHC single as a kid (I had a Yamaha MX80, the plug foulinest machine ever and I didn't know what to do about it then; I think the oil injection quadrant must have been set to "mosquito control" or "tactical concealment") but one kid in the neighborhood had a '78 Z50A and two other kids had CT70s. Despite the suspension limitations, their bikes always ran. It made an impression, and when I got a chance to get a Z50 years later it was like being a kid all over again. Still is, really, and I've had the thing for close to 20 years now. Good luck with yours. If you're the kind of person who can appreciate what a Z50 can do, they're really pretty priceless.
