Hello folks!

Thought i'd poke my nose in as i have starteda new project and will require some info at points i'm sure!

I acquired a '76 V50 last year from a friend of my father-in-law. At the time i was building up a '76 CB125 and a teardrop trailer, so the little Yammy got left to wait it's turn.

Since then (oct 2013) the little Honda got stolen and torched (which wasn't ideal), we had a baby, bought a car (Triumph Toledo), sold the car, bought an '88 CB125 and moved house. The newer Honda had an engine rebuild due to lies from the previous owner (not ideal), but i am now free to start the little V50!!

So...

Here i am! I'll be posting in the classic section for obvious reasons, so please be kind, i am quite capable with a spanner and a Haynes, but the intricacies of a semi-auto 2 stroke will i'm sure require some help at points!

So hello and thank you in advance.

Yeah, not too many parts on ebay! It is complete, so shouldn't be a problem, just make sure i look after the engine!

It's ratty as hell, but i'm happy to keep it that way, it's just for a bit of fun, slow fun!
