    Buying a Honda Express?

    I'm looking at picking up a honda NC50 anyone have one they would like to sell me? recon it could be just the ticket for summer (and lap time comps at the track).
    Any thoughts, modification suggestions are welcomed.

    I'm, particularly fond of the under seat storage and teh ability to give ya mate a backie.. I can't say i'm too fond of those oggie nobs at the bottom tho... they almost look like pedals

    I suspect however; that, not Even Au, Mr Taylor himself has an upgrade option for this beauty !

    i think the underseat storage is limited to petrol bro
    yes, the stock pegs are a bit of a worry, but this is not about looks eh

    I would definitely put stickers on it. My boy says dinosaur stickers are the shizzle and my girls reckon you will need some sparkly pink tassles for the bar-ends. Don't bling it up too much though, I wouldn't want it to become a target for thieves.

    i am so with Clivoris on this ... the pick tassles would surely put off most thieving bargin hunters

    Buy it, chrome the frame/polish it, get a custom arse hugging seat made up, extend the bars by 12 in to get that apehanger look, and just to be(even more) different, get some higly polished/anodized rear sets to replace the oggy knob pegs.

    Theres just so many posibilities- a world of pimping options await you
