ok so this is the deal on my QR50 i gave a guy some old honda parts for his bike when he came and picked them up he seen my fleet of z's and told me that he had one, and that if i wanted it i could have it. this bike looks like the pic above ^^^^^^ but not as good shape. MR 50 ..... it says QR 50 on the tag and in the pic above it even says QR on the seat ........ but if you have more info let me know this bike has not been running in years, the carb was filled with water, gas and cra%...... so i took the carb off and put it in cleaning fluid for two days. cleaned up all the jets and hit them with compressed air and they all turned out good. i have two problems 1. the down pipe that sits in the float boal (not the one for the main ) the smaller one made out of brass is still cloged with cra%, i have tryed every thing : compressed air, heat, smaller wire to try and disloge the crud, even a very small drill bit ( did not effect the size of the passage ) to yelling at it ...... any ideas before i heat it up and take it out of the body of the carb ? 2. #2 problem is that the choke is stuck down with no way to get it up ..... well i have the bike getting spark and i weled / fixed some of the bad spots on the frame. The next step is to get it running before i strip it all and paint it. i think that this bike was only availble in canada and not to the US .... ? this is a honda 50cc two stroke motor / auto with an enclosed drive ... looks like it would be a fun little bike but it would not with hold the betting i give my z ........... i am sure my sisters kid (4) will love it Jon |

| IT is a MR if it is like the picture above
The QR is vary rare to find in the US. It was the sister bike to the Z50 with a more street set up. the front finder is right on the wwheel and not mounted to the bottom of the fork. Most of the QR's are of yellow and green color. hope this helps
