50cc bikes..fs1e,dt50, ss50
 

Anyone see any of these about or even own one ? i had most of them years ago mostly the FS1E ( fizzy ) and wouldnt mind getting another as project but on ebay they go for silly prices..

I had the ss50, the best thing was you could fit the c70 barrel, piston and head onto it, made it eat FS1E's for breakfast:thumbsup:

my first bike was the ss50 but the my unrestricted fs1e did 65mph and 55mph with 2 on it :D

My first bike was an fs1e back in '86 micron pipe and ported by my friend who is a mechanic.did 74mph i loved it! Good luck finding one.

Did you see the James May programme a few years back, where there was a mith that you could tune a fizzy to do over 60mph. With a team of mechanics with him they could only manage just over 40mph!

did you not read my post above Daz..mine did 65mph :lol:

FS1E in purple VBB 192N

took it home from were bought in Dad's car boot :woot:, Austin Cambridge 66 CWX

mine was on the site but can't see it

First bike I had was an AR50 :D
Oh the memories!

Same here :D a green mean machine.Them were the days

A mate of mine bought a brand new one in 1989, put a 90cc bore kit on it, lasted about 50 miles til the bottom end sounded like a bag of nuts and bolts. Went like a ethopian with a dinner ticket being chased by a lion tho.
And the lucky bugger got a new engine fitted through warranty.

2-strokes are so much more fun!
Had a TS50X as well that was bored out to an 80ish lol

The days of popping down to the local back street engineers for a bore and hone lol

I had the head skimmed on mine it was like a rocket.:D

My first ride was a TZR125. I rode a GP125 a year or too ago. Funny to think the big bore on my bike now was an extra 100cc

Same here TZR 125 blue with power value kit. Loads of fun

main comp for the fizzy was the Suzuki AP 50

DT50M...old skool twin shock!!

there is a fs1e for sale locally, dont know how much for though. my first bike was a ts50, total heap o shite. got a yam rs100 at the same time which i did up and modified heavily while riding the ts, the 100 would scare most 125's, powerband at 7000 made it quite hard to ride but serious fun, instant wheelie in second and did over 90mph

Nice list of bikes there, my first road bike was a Aprillia AF1 Replica 125, it had an Arrow pipe and carbon reeds etc

I thought I was a gp legend on the roads!

I race a TZR 250 in the Yamaha past Masters, 2nd season this year! Bring on The first round at Oulton in April!!

Mark you will have to let us know when your racing at Brands

Yes for sure, I'm there on May 16/17, full gp circuit!!

I rode the gp circuit last year, it's mental but really good fun!

I'll let you know the dates, we visit brands 3/4 times during a season.

Check out Bemsee website, it's a good day out with some really quick lads on the 1000 and 600's, fairly cheap entry fee too compared the BSB etc.

Our websites pretty cool with some good pics etc

it's www.ypmrc.co.uk

back on track, and not Brands Hatch etc ;)

ones to die for back in the 70's

were they Gilera, Malagutti & a Ginetta ???

seem to remember a black & gold ped but can't put a name to it :confused:

looking for pictures though

1st bike ar50 13bhp big bore kit ae80 head (higher compresion)nikon race pipe ,no battery,kikstart, indicators,mirrors or any thing else it didnt nead to pass the mot or run lost so much weight off it i could carry it lol got nicked by un marked cop car doing 76mph

when i was 16 i was stuck riding my ss50 to work but i raced an 86 YZ250 but by the time i hit 18 i had a RD350LC :D loved that bike til it nearly killed me, the motor lives on in a hovercraft

350 lc wepon on 2 wheels much beter if you put the engine in a rg 250 gamma frame tho

The ultimate 2 stroke weapon is to put a rg500 gamma engine into a rg250 chassis, proper old skool gp bike! The fat americans go mad for them, but not as much as jellied doughnuts.

Does any one remember the Performance Bikes mag with the blue/white RGV250 home made thingy??

I had a 350LC, fecking awesome hooligans bike, loved it so much but had loads of problems with the oil pump :( I wonder if people still race the LC's?

I have a mag from last year which has a cagiva 125 with a 350 ypvs motor in it, rg 250 forks and loads of other mods. The block had some yagiva stickers made for it, from a distance it looked like vagina :woot:

You got a scanner Daz? lol

Nope, but if its any help its in the jan 2009 edition of performance bikes. I remember it well cos i was reading it while my wife was in labour.:thumbsup:

I had the older RD250 not the lc and a X7 man that was ace..now i'm on a 50cc ped :blush:

In the YPM it's mainly 2ma Tzr 250, but we have about 6 RD350's and one of these was champion in 09 but they are tricky to ride as the handling is a bit strange? We also have a few LC and one TDR!

You all forgot the fastest stock one, Fantic Motor, GT6 on road Caballero off road, that would hit 50 without any tuning, my mate did carry a toolkit and spare crank in his backpack though:thumbsup:
I was always a 4 stroker, so S550 no pedals and a nifty 90 head and barrel, plus a Dunstall power pipe ran under motor to stop passenger burning legs, it did me a 12 mile each way commute for a year no worries at speed.
Then a Honda CD175, the BSA replica with rubber and chrome tank panels and a bathtub rear mudguard, replaced with a Yamaha YDS7 250 with Amal 32 carbs, twin leading front drum did nose wheelies, and would lift the front in 5th all day long, those were the days.

I'm riding this at the minute it does do 45mph :lol:
