Hey Ronnie G...I spoke to you at the Grits, but didn't realize who I was talking to...lol
Tough luck about the failure.
At least you didn't go out Saturday morning and break your collar bone like the dude who camped by my cabin.

I've tried to load some pix of the Grits 2020, but they just won't fit and I don't have the software to down-size.
Had a blast as usual. A bit wet, but not a rain-out by any means. My Jog doesn't appreciate being punished for 65 miles, and gets really slow by 30 miles or so. Those hills get really tall and long.

Photo in Nashville with 3 of my fellow NS50f owners.
We have 8 total here known to me and I have planned an event for June 18-19 in 2021.
Hope to gather as many NS50's as possible for some spirited riding on the Natchez Trace.

Your presence would be enjoyed, to be sure. We rode today a little, mostly because it was very warm. In the 70's I think.

It was chilly and very breezy yesterday, but at least it was sunny, so I took the NS50F for a ride out Fort Island Trail. I posted a video of the ride here:

If you enjoy the video, please give it a "like" and subscribe to the channel. Most of my other videos are about Honda Super Cubs and SYM Symbas, but I'll be working through the Honda scooter fleet over the next few months.. I think the next one will be on the NX50.

Very nicely done Vaughn.
The quality is outstanding.
Glad you got the NS out for an airing.
Flat Florida terrain is, you must admit, less than thrilling... :hi:

I promised pics forever ago, so here they are! ~I have been SO busy with rehabbing songbirds, along with taking care of our OWN (pet) birds, I haven't had time to post my newest mod pics. I will let the pics speak for themselves; there are quite a few new modifications in the pictures. My new pipe is an RS Lip's "Dedicated B-Type, Private" chamber built for my Stage 2 bore. This chamber is simply amazing. I have never seen a chamber that can do what this chamber does, in terms of torque, response, and all out power. RS Lips's also notes that using a chamber specifically designed for the bore specs greatly increases the bore's reliability, due to reduced exhaust gas temps, optimized exhaust pressure, and proper synchronization of ignition timing.

I am actually at a point that I am very, very happy with my NS50F. I thought the day would never come.

Next plan of attack:

ANOTHER NS50F build, but this build will be an exclusive RS LIP'S theme, using their "50cc SUPER" (direct port) bore... Actually, a complete RS LIP'S engine build, & bright RS LIP'S graphics. Wheels will be NS50R type. Hopefully this new project will be completed in a couple years! :nervous:

Enjoy the pics; I used my digital cam this time so hopefully better quality.
Later guys, jon

Heres mine, I guess the "Honda" stickers are not correct, however who ever done them did a very good job. Need a fairing and rad cover.
