Can't wait to hear more on your MB-5. Please keep us posted on your work with it. I need to hear more about NS50's and MB-5's to get this stupid Grom idea out of my head.

Hey ghost...that MB5 was strictly a flip-bike.
I sold it to a member of the Swoop Jockeys in Atlanta.
He has since gotten into running order and is ripping around Georgia.
My recent actions have resulted in purchasing a NEW Sym Wolf Classic 150...
I am very happy with the Sym, and I have 2 years/24,000 miles to put it to the test.
Still sad about having to leave behind the NS50 based on comfort, but I think I have made a good choice.

Here is a pretty nice NS50 on eBay. It has all of the optional fairings, and the tachometer.

Here is another. Stupid price, but stupid condition. Seems if I was looking for a perfect one I'd call the number. Clean!

Hi guys, been a while but wanted to let you all know I picked this one up and it's in good hands!

Very cool. We will have to ride soon!

2 NS 50s on craigslist portland Oregon in the last 2 days

Well I have not yet pulled that VIN number, sorry motormike...........

On the other hand, I bought another NS50 which already has the upgrades I have waiting for my stock NS50, such as the Charmo 65 kit, and a proma Pipe. It also has some 18" mags from an AR80 as well as the forks + disc breaks. It;s exciting to ride, but I need to do more tuning to the 24mm OKO carb. I guess this could have been stolen too, as it came from GA where no one gives two of anything for a title. lol

This will be my experimental bike before I break into the fresh kit and new pipe. I think I am going to dive deep into carb tuning to wrangle this beast.

Feel free to smirk and laugh, but I hope to do the ton on this thing. It's got the right wheels and gears, I might need some custom sprockets, and a bit of gumption. Who knows...........

Ha, that is exactly it! It's a firecracker! Did you put the pipe/kit/oko carb on there? It's odd that the cylinder says charmo and 49cc?

This isn't the stolen bike is it?

theres some interesting go fast bits available in japan for these.Some really cool looking pipes too.

Hey Shifty-Fifty Dudes!!

Long time no speak! I've been so, so busy in "Bird-World" - it's been such a busy summer with rehabbing songbirds I've had very little time to ride my NS at all. Glad to see that the thread is still up and going...

I just saw paulpauly7's post about Japanese pipes, and it reminded me to post something I've been meaning to post forever now.

** I wanted to give you guys first "dibs" on my spare RS LIP'S R-13 Chamber pipe.**

-I had bought it last year just because I love the way the 2 chamber Lip's pipes look- but with my Stage 2 Lip's bore, I definitely need to stick with the chamber that's made for the bore; the R-13 does not flow enough to support my 63cc... I was planning on keeping it in case I found another NS50F, but lately I barely have time to start my bike, let alone ride -another- NS.

The R-13 is MADE to work with the STOCK 50cc cylinder, or light bore up kits. Lip's prides themselves in the R-13 being a direct BOLT-ON, with only a spark plug change being needed to use the pipe. "No carb jetting needed."

Anyways, the pipe has been mounted once and idled for a whopping 5 minutes. It sounds incredible as all Lip's pipes do. It was on so briefly, I never even installed the mounting hardware.

I am asking $250 plus shipping, FIRM. I have over $340 in the pipe with shipping from Japan.

If anyone is interested, please email me DIRECTLY at TE37scag@aol.com and I will send ya pics.
There's only 1 other Lip's pipe in the USA, and it's on my NS!!

Later guys, hope all is well with everyone!

* R-13 exhaust sold to NS rider Shane in WA! *

Thanks man! -jc

Hey guys! Just purchased my own NS50 today. It seems to be running without a battery.... I was wondering if any of you with one could post a picture of your battery setup. Thanks!
