Re: Does anyone else own a Honda NS 50?

Post by z50r-ghost »

Before ya post up any parts dude, give them a good cleaning. Ive always found clean and shiny parts sell better on the 'Bay.

For cleaning dirty parts, a bath tub, scrub brush and dish soap comes in handy...

(if "motor-wife" will let you use her tub. ASK FIRST!)

Greetings:

Wise Ghost recommends seeking Spousal Dispensation to use her tub. I've found that goes double for the Dishwasher! :)

eBay Cowl Cover has a bidder @ $49.95...with 8 hours left. I will probably come up with something
to make the compartment useful for much less. One idea that caught my eye @ True Grits is a small toneau cover.
I like it.... :love: ....even though snagging the eBay cover for the offered $35 was preferred...$60 is more than it's worth to me... :urban:

You can see below the bodywork by "Kelloggs" that I rigged for the event. It's still holding up after getting rained on, sat on, and removed for oil-tank filling. Cost: $.50 paint, $.05 tape... :hi:

The saddest part? 471 miles on the clock; males me want to cry someone did that paint "work" to that little NS. And the paint on the pipe... I guess that was for the "TIGHT" effect. I've said duct-tape is "kentucky chrome" so I guess krylon is texas chrome.

Yeah, when I read "cut the cylinder off" I feared the worst; but he's talking about the ignition.

I would "save" her in an instant... But I'm in KY. :(
This would be a killer project, dudes... There's tricks to removing all that krylon...

Happy Holidays for Sunny Southwest Florida.

Awesome Mr. Motormike;

I know you will keep us posted...

Hey, I do have a shiny just like-new headlight assembly... Hmmm...

I hope you pick the NS up; it needs a kind hand working on it. Looks like its had a rough life, and the odo says not any road time... :(

hello everyone, just found this site looking for other NS50F owners. I am looking to sell mine. But Craigslist here is full of lowballers and people who have no clue of what a NS50 is. I have a US NS50F and bought a Black NS50 in Japan and brought back everything but the frame and motor. So mine has the mag wheels with the front disk brake.

Wow wave...

Very nice bike dude- id buy it in an instant if you were closer to KY (I'm just guessing you aren't close..) & if Christmas wasn't last week; I spent so much dude...

For my other "Shifty Fifty" dudes, THIS would be the NS to have. Just look at those wheels!

I also "spy" a CF POSH Super-Battle (silver version) CDI... This is one awesome CDI. Unlike many scooter type CDI's; this one WORKS. It's funny because the Chinese copied the typical "racing" CDI off of this Posh CDI.

Yes sir; I'd love to buy this NS... May I ask what your asking price is?

Later guys, j

....Ohhhh; I just noticed the headlight conversion (probably Daytona brand) and Japanese NS50F version muffler.

I see your cylinder is silver. Did you paint it, or is it aftermarket? If your NS came with a silver cylinder, could you tell me the code on the cylinder? In the US, NS50F has the "GE2" cylinder. There's also a GT4, and a GE8 for this 50cc engine type. All the cylinders have specific differences. Certain ones are MUCH better than others...
