Bought as my son's first bucket racer. No airbox or oil tank. Standard comstar wheels painted blue as I had a can that matched the original blue. Few additions for kart track use. Engine is oversize but I don't remember exact amount, maybe 1.0mm or 1.5mm. As far as I recall it is not ported. I did cut the exhaust pipe and fitted an expansion chamber but have put the original pipe back in place with a small patch. I have added fork clamps to the top triple clamp to help with front end twisting. Comes with the Honda toolkit.
Stylish little 50 from the mid '70s.

Coming over all sentimental. That said I've been offered my Road RG50 and realised I had too many projects.
That instrument must be from one of you import RGs, never seen a 60kph one before.

Correct. I realized it earlier today. Water temp is a bit of a giveaway. I really just want to move it out of my garage. The price is irrelevant.
