Hello all
I've had this '67 Honda P50 for several years now. It is completely original except for the mirrors. It was saved from a city dump in the same shape it's in now. The only thing it needed to make it run was a piece of hose to replace the intake pipe connector. Other than that all I did was check the valve clearance and points which did not need any adjustments. The gas tank and float bowl were clean so I put fresh gas in it and it lit right up. I run around town on it all the time at a hot 25mph.
After a friend of mine saw this blue bike he said "I've got a red one of those in my garage. Do you want it?"I said yes and this is what I got.
It was a lot rougher than the blue one and needed some internal engine work. The drive mechanism on these is a series of three sets of chains and sprockets and the final driven sprocket on this one was stripped.
After I replaced that and did a lot of clean-up it turned out to be a good dependable little bike.
They don't go fast but they are still a lot of fun.
Bob
