Here she is! Still putting some pieces back on. I squirted some premix in the Carb a second ago and it fired up like its brand new. I think that's pretty decent considering its been sitting outside in freezing temps all night and today hasn't been much warmer.

Here's the spare frame. Minus some stuff. Engine turns beautifully by hand. Already messing around with some different handlebars. And a sneak peek at my naked se50 project in the back.

Yeah MB5s are awesome.

Just in the past year or so performance parts have been coming to America.

Check out treatland.tv and you can get errtang.

Also I needs me some parts for one of my MB5s.

If you have a spare stator and or tachometer cable holler at me so I can buy them

LOL you mean my top floor studio apartment. Lucky my landlord hasn't had to come in yet. He wouldn't be too impressed with my "workspace"

I have no other place to keep them. I just picked up a garelli VIP so I'm quickly running out of space. I'm going to be getting rid of both my scooters soon so I can focus more on my other rides.

Tate,

Im thinking the MB5 / NS50 / NSR shared the same stator.

If so, I have a spare one. Are you sure you have a bad stator?

If you want to see pics, shoot me an email at TE37scag@aol.com
