    thats awesome. As to why yammy didnt do it right the first time, they were too busy making pianos.
    Then I could get a Kb Tshirt, move to Timaru and become a full time crossdressing faggot

    Yup, normally a 49cc disc-valve two-stroke.

    I reckon the guy that built it was inspired by the Kenny Roberts TZ750 flat-tracker.

    that brings back memories, my first bike was a blue version of that, with the 50 engine though. seized it once through my lack of knowledge with 2 strokes, put a big bore kit and micron on, all my mates dads had bought them new rd 50s and otherwise up to date exotica, i made do with my fizzy and still kept up, although really longed for a rd 50 my parents had the money but are just the tightest people in the world, and still are
