Ah!!! the memories come flooding back. £5 got you enough petrol for the week, even though you lived on the bike. Fiting expansion chambers, Removing the air filter box and fitting a K&N filter (See pic), larger front sprockets and hacking bits out of the ports with a black and decker drill with a milling bit fitted and all so you could hit 40mph.. buttrock.gif buttrock.gif buttrock.gif


I'd need to paint it white or blue though.. How much is it Zombie.. I payed £150 for mine in 1984, if I remember correctly.. That was second hand, obviously..

£21 at the mo but i suspect a bidding war on this one so guess that it may break £23.50 before auction end.

You must have done a good job on your bike BD the only time I rode an MB 50 I thought the brakes were seized,they weren't, MT 50's were even worse. CB 50'S looked better but weren't all that popular. I used to lust after my mate's brothers Honda SS50'S they had a 4 speed and a 5 speed. The 5 speed could hit 50 on a good day I loved that bike, sadly it was written off by being hit by another bike.Guess who was riding the other bike. verysad.gif
The insurance money paid for Phil to get his first car so he wasn't mad at me for too long.

Its going through the roof! £67 at the last look! For a sought after classic!

Honey I shrunk the engine!

£77 and climbing. It's in Southampton though, which is too far for me. My son is 16 later this year and I would have bought it for him if it was cheap, then fixed it up over the summer.

Brings happy memories to me aswell one of the fukwit couriers in my company had one he was a nice lad but we'd take the piss sumthin rotten one day whilst 8 of us were parked up in hanover sq in london he come's tearing into the sq sqeaks to a halt an we say last in m8 u buy the Teas so after a 10 min arguement he finally agrees as he wonders off muttering somebody has a bright idea .

We pick up his little bike and lodge it on top of 2 telephone kiosks .A few mins later he returns with the Teas and we start to drink tying desperatley not to fall over laughing.

The Stupid b'stard finally cottons on that his Bike isn't anywhere to be seen .first place he looks is in the park in the midle of the square finally he emerges from the park looks up an see's his bike at that point were all on the floor pissin ourselves laughin grin.gif

we did get his bike down................................................eventually and he didn't have to pay for the Teas either i mean arn't we kind cool2.gif

I've got fond memories because it was my first bike but I also know somebody who put an H100 engine in one. They just about slot straight in. He scared the pants of a few 125 riders, who thought it was a standard MB. cool2.gif
