Motomec, "closed Mondays...". -that says it all... The shop I still "live and learn" at has always been closed Mondays. Im 32 years old now, and have been hanging out at this shop since I was 8 years old. The past 5 years I've worked here full time. Freaking AWESOME read, dude- m...

Ok... Might as well let ya know what wheels I chose since pics will be next week when new exhaust chamber arrives... (it took me 5 months to make up my mind; but really and easy choice...) 1996 Honda NS-1 wheels. :love: :love: :love: -50cc, front & rear disc. Restored them better-than-new... Vol...

I forgot to post a "progress update..." Lots of progress lately; I now have an awesome stopping-system up front. I have used all HRC NSR50 parts, with the exception of a specially-made Spiegler front brake hose and hardware, and a 220mm Sunstar Japan disc rotor, which should be here in a c...

...Great reading as always guys; the NS50F thread here is the best and is really growing. Thanks for posting your stories, motomec. I remember reading your story about how you would find scooters that had been abandoned by students at the end of the semester. It was years ago that I had stumbled acr...

Jamz that's AWESOME, dude! I had a Rupp Roadster when I was 12... I would have loved to go to the mini-bike show! One of these years I plan to restore a vintage minibike.. But that comes AFTER I first find and restore a vintage McCulloch powered 1970's Kart! Ive always loved the karts of the 70's. I...

Hey motomech, I read your NS50 article a very long time ago; really good stuff dude; the fact that you went to the dealer and bought a new NS50F is really cool! -I'm 32 now, and can remember going to the Honda dealer and seeing the NS50F in 1990 and thinking it was such a cool bike. -great to have y...

Wow- :shock: :shock: :love: That would be my favorite Gyro model... Right down to the Neptune Blue color. You did VERY well on that purchase, Bruce. Finding a Gyro in that shape is really rare these days! "Resident" forum member "motormike" is our Gyro authority, racer, and exper...

Honda Thailand has been around for years... One of the most sought-after Honda Monkey engines, the "Honda Nice 110" (no longer in prod) was / is THE engine to have. A close Thai buddy made a few calls for me back in 04, and a couple thousand "golds" later... A brand NEW Honda Nic...

After getting side-tracked, tempted by other shiny & anodized parts from Japan, and numerous other rarities, my NS is finally getting her "proper pair of rollers." i.e. MY NS's WHEELS are HERE...HOORAY! . :smile: I know i owe you dudes some pictures, but dam... We have been so busy lat...

Congrats, GK! Im so freaking happy for ya dude; :mrgreen: Thursday is the day!! -NO one understands the whole "NS50F-love" :love: until they ride one. (not even MB5 owners...). The NS is an absolute blast to ride, because you are always shifting thru the gears and actually riding. Despite ...

Hey Jamz, Dam dude... Sorry bro; seemed like it would have been designed for the most common flange in existence. :sad: Shoot me an email with the total you paid for it, And I will buy it from you for the $ ya have in it. I don't know if I'll ever find anything to use it on, but if all else fails I'...

Now that's a BEAUTIFUL specimen, GKinTN! Absolutely stunning; you can tell it has a great home!

-thanks for sharing! -j

Hmm... If GKinTN rides a red MB with a black Hoemoet Pipe, I remember seeing him. There was a ton of MB's there, and a lot of NS's as well. Definitely a fun ride, despite the rain last year! I like to start at the back of the group with the moped guys, and see how many I can pass. Well; it will be a...

Haha!! Thats funny, Mike! I thought you had seen what I had posted up... :smile: ...and you (and everyone else) MUST go to True Grits 50cc fun run this year, at the end of October. just google "True Grits 50cc Fun Run 2012." It would be fun to ride our NS's together @ the Fun Run... in Suc...
