Re: Does anyone else own a Honda NS 50?

Beautiful, GK... How do you find all these low mileage NS's? ;) Let it be known guys, that I'm looking for an UPPER Honda Optional radiator fairing, and a LOWER if possible. I finally finished my NS-1 wheel / fork & caliper / disc spacing. I have the front brake setup complete, and rear brake ca...

Re: Does anyone else own a Honda NS 50?

EEK!!

The more closely I look at it, that bike DOES appear to have a Japanese pipe on it... I spy a spring mounted flange at the head, and a bolted-on silencer... Possibly a K2TEC chamber.

Did anyone else notice the headlight??

This is looking like one nice JDM NS50F... !

Re: Does anyone else own a Honda NS 50?

Just thought is pass this along... http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/viewitem?itemId=110945997972&index=2&nav=SEARCH&nid=72721633284 This is a Metrakit 75cc kit for the NS50 / NSR50 engine. It's price tag says $299. Definitely not a bad deal... Metrakit makes some very, very nice bores. I'v...

Re: Does anyone else own a Honda NS 50?

-I forgot to mention; the pipe on the bike is stock. -Japanese NS50F's came with a aluminum "sleeve" over the silencer portion of the exhaust. Looks aftermarket, but it's a stocker. ;)

Again, this is an incredible deal... 70mph 'drafting' on the highway... Must be a good running NS!

Re: Does anyone else own a Honda NS 50?

Good find, GKinTN; yep, that's the earliest year Japanese version NS50F. Actually looks great for his 1000$ asking price... But then he says won't take offers lower than 500$. Someone could easily take this home for 800$... :) Here's the pic link: http://www.mopedarmy.com/forums/read.php?2,3191364,3...

Re: is bear alive????

+2 on hoping he is just hibernating... I too hope he is ok. I had thought he was on sabbatical.

Bear-dude really knows his stuff, and then some. Bear especially knows 2 strokes... and "factory" facts.

Re: Does anyone else own a Honda NS 50?

Here's something that you don't see everyday; a used NS50F fuel tank on eBay that *appears* to be pretty clean on the inside. Definitely could use a media blasting, prime and repaint, but if you could get it for a good price, totally worth it. I think I just talked myself into bidding... :nervous: <...

Re: Does anyone else own a Honda NS 50?

Hey Nick, Yes sir, welcome dude... We're getting quite a few "NS Heads" here! One concern; are you getting the complete NSR fork assembly? I ask because the NSR 50 forks are 30mm, and the NS50 forks are 29mm. 1mm does not seem like a lot, but the tubes definitely won't work with the NS tri...

Re: Does anyone else own a Honda NS 50?

38 days, huh. I'm too tired to get motivated to "NS-wrench" tonight. After working on scooters all day, I installed a factory HD gear-indicator on my Dad's new 2013 Harley Tri-Glide trike... Man, talk about a machine; his Tri-Glide is quite simply, amazing. GPS, insane stereo, leather, bla...

Re: '87 Aero 50 Mild Performance Resto

Wow! Black frame... I really like that! Great work so far man; I'm looking forward to following your build. The parts you have on order will definitely help your acceleration and top speed.

Motormike; you didn't know about Yahoo japan Auctions? Dam... I was thinking for sure ya did; or I would have mentioned that long ago... Here is the problem: Japanese sellers simply will NOT ship out of Japan. :( You have to go thru someone in Japan, or a shop that will ship to the USA. I get 99% of...
