Geee...um....thanks for the congrats.

Ya, well I asked about the Huyara, but they weren't giving test drives.   ;D

He learned a really good lesson last night...really make sure it's in NEUTRAL before you start it.
If it flies, floats or f#%&s...rent it.

Oops!  Hopefully it didn't cause him to have a little spill and he's ok.  Even when the neutral light is on, I still pull in the clutch lever when I start mine.

Yup...went for a small unexpected ride....no major injuries  There's no neutral light. And he's too small to hold on to the brake when he gives it a kick start. No clutch either...it's centrifugal unit.

Good to get the first crash out of the way.  :rofl2:

There's going to be lots of them.....

Perfect, it's the evolution of the original Mini Trail Z50.  You can't kill those things.

How many of us abused those poor things when we were kids?  In the '70s it was the first motorized vehicle a lot of us piloted.


We had one that looked a lot like this

Funny I a drove one of these last week at my folks summer house which has a large field inthe back. My brother got it for free for his two boys(11&12 yrs old) so I took it for a spin. I am about 200 lbs and the capacity is about 150LBs but the little thing can go and handled my weight with ease. It runs very smooth and is one solid little bike. No I did not wear my Shriners hat when driving it. I believe it was made in 1978.  Brought back alot of memories when I used to drive my suzuki 75 around the same field when I was young(14).

Great choice on the CRF50.  Not a better 50cc starter bike out there.  And ya, after a couple years if you need to upgrade, you'll probably get the price you paid for it. 

A cousin had a Z50 growing up.  Beat the crap out of it and it wouldn't die.  I remember once I "attempted" to do a catwalk with it.  Wiped out, and the rear fender dug into my leg.  Real hotshot   :rofl2:.  Still have the scar.

Quality is never an accident; it is always the result of high intention, sincere effort, intelligent direction, and skillful execution; it represents the wise choice of many alternatives.
