Re: Honda Aero 50 1986 Restoration in the Philippines
Ok. So I opened the cylinder head to check for carbon buildup. Discovered there are three gaskets installed separating the cylinder from the cylinder head. I don't get it. Should there be just one? These may be used as spacer so the piston does not hit the plug but upon closer inspection, one gasket...

Re: '87 Aero 50 Mild Performance Resto
Greetings: True enough the parts are harder to find, but I don't agree that a Big-Block AF05 must run hot. The right parts - Malossi or Polini, LeoVince and a manifold/big carb conversion along with gears and tuning can make it reliable and pretty fast. There's more Satisfaction hunting down rare p...

Honda Aero 50 1986 Restoration in the Philippines
I live in the Philippines. I am not into motorcycles. I grew up into thinking that going more than 40mph on a 2-wheeler is dangerous and anything bigger than a 50cc moped could be deadly.
