Greetings:

Mooks, you are the King of the Kobblers!
Details on that Motard? Isn't the pipe big for 50cc, or do RPMs make up for the low-volume Aus-puffs?

several years ago i bought two of these from my close friends salvage yard with the intention of making one good one from the two. well...
that didn't pan out. one had fire and NO compression and the other had compression but i could not find spark. after much swapping of parts i gave up. so the pair sat behind the garage.

this one appeared at a convenience store and after some long term haggling i brought it home. ($60.00)-the previous owner was at a loss for any details of it's "nova" so it was a grab bag.
well after swapping out everything i had tween the 3 i had a runner in the latest buy.
i ran around on it for a minute and then it sorta sat there- til last Saturday night.
over several beers it woke up Sunday a.m. to pretty much what you see here.
pipe works pretty well for a guy with only a clue.
