Oh yeh!
Funk it up, baby!
90zz's of pure, unadulterated slowness. Coming to a gutter far far away from pretty much everyone.

Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut that connects the handle bars to the saddle.

Looking good Will. Maybe a bit too much of a handful for me - I only had a C50.

.... nobody could ever accuse you of trying to corner the market in specific models - now could they?!

Needs some work then - even a C50 is faster than that

I've heard of a 110cc top end kit for these beauties. With that and some stickers applied, the baffles removed...get ready for 50mph !
Have some of that you Italian sports bike pilots

Yeh, had a feeling something wasn't quite right. Will have a mooch at the weekend.
As for go-faster add ons.. One step ahead!

My 40k mile example had a top end somewhere in the 50s depending on the length of the road and your patience. But it was blue, like I said the faster colour.

I regularly had our old C50 up to 50 ..... but we did live at the top of a hill and the wind often blew the right way.
It could live with my mate's FS1E (which he had from new)

Top choice for reliability ! When I was a teenager, I was given one for painting a picture for my girlfriends mum. We we're living in Germany, as my dad was in the RAF and we were stationed there, so we eventually bought it back to the UK, shoved it in a garage and did nowt with it for years. Then we pulled it out one day, filled it with petrol and it started first time, flippin awesome !
My dad then crashed it into the hedge, 2 wheels not his thing, but he could fly a V bomber, so I forgive him

I decided to do a text checker on my last cub 90.
It was stolen in 2009. Never recovered. Shame as it was a minter with 6000 miles on it when I sold it.
Thieving scum!!!!!!!!!!!
