I doubt that a honda 50 would bolt in. The mounts look all different.

lol 2 stroke huh hmmm whats everyone think should i go for it? or let it rust up to dust.

d0n · 03-01-2007, 04:34 PM

IMO $200 is a lot for a junkyard find.

Can you get a coil for it to make sure it runs?

Im guessing this is the right one

xr100man · 03-01-2007, 05:07 PM

sounds like a lost cause to mee once done you will have a ton of $ in it.

SHADE · 03-01-2007, 05:09 PM

ya i think if i get ill dump a good amount of money into it but it might be fun bike to ride.. wounder if i could race it at vegas =]

C_Thut · 03-01-2007, 06:59 PM

personally if i had the money i would get it, ive ridden one and theyre tons of fun.

SHADE · 03-01-2007, 07:46 PM

are they fast at all? 75cc 2 stroke seems like alot of power.

The 26incher · 03-01-2007, 09:43 PM

I would buy that thing in a heart beat for $200!

slickz50r · 03-01-2007, 09:54 PM

I rode one on several occasions.
Compared to a 6v z50 or a 6v ct70
it is a rocket.
The power band even makes the front
tire get a little light.
I'd buy it!!!
It's different that is important to some.

drizz · 03-01-2007, 10:40 PM

yup, I say get it as long as you understand that it'll be a tough project...

RAZZO · 03-01-2007, 11:07 PM

Smokey little bastards! Had a couple of them a few years ago. Couldn't give them away! Finally did. Yep, faster than a Z50 but so is a CR80. Parts are Extremely hard to come by. If you invest alot in it, plan on keeping it. I have only seen pristine examples bring O.K. $ at meets. Like drizz said "tough project".

SHADE · 03-02-2007, 10:42 AM

IM going to go there today and take some pics and post them up and then you guys can tell me what i should do.
