Does anyone know what kind of bike this is

[motoxjosh]

all i know is it is a yamaha 50 cc with high and low gear

[oldtimer]

yes, its a yamaha chappy sold in droves in the usa available in 50 and 80cc versions about in the 70s and early 80s,also known as an Lb50 and Lb80

[motoxjosh]

thanks do you no if its the 80 cc and the year it goes about 45 mph so im thinking its the 80cc

[wild foamy]

there should be a number cast into the side of the barrel on the engine, either 49cc or 79cc

[oldtimer]

thanks do you no if its the 80 cc and the year it goes about 45 mph so im thinking its the 80cc

as per the other replie it should show up on the barrel or info from the model number on the frame it wont show 79cc as they were in fact 72cc.

next month in the july issue of classic motorcycle mechanics magazine it will be showing the restoration of a yamaha chappy,this months june shows one bought off e bay. so for a couple of dollars a month you should get plenty of tips good luck with your project.
