MB5 honda, i've always wanted one of these little bikes

M1GP 24-hour race article linky

 

Hehe had a few of them in my youth because they met the engine displacement of a moped in nj. Only when I was 16 and couldnt keep the thing at the posted speed limits was the loophole discovered. My luck I get cop that knew what an mb5 was and laughed at my pedal footpegs while impounding it.

 

That's awesome!!

 

ari and zach have a killer video page.

oh...you can beat him.

 

Another bike I wish I would have kept.

 

Walker.....I think it was Tony who was saying he had like 5 at one time.

 

You could say I had a few. It was a great bike for zipping around town when I lived in Savannah.

 

i had a loaner to race at loudon at one point in time. jolly moto pipe. carb. some porting. bent, stamped wheels. it was fun, but slow as crap. on a short track, like the one those guys raced on....be a blast. but a big uphill sorta kills the fun.

it would wheelie like no tomorrow though.

there had to be 5 ot 6 that used to show up regularly up there to race. they make a crappy racebike. the frame sucks for doing anything to it.

tex is supposedly been putting one together for like qp years. hes lacing early rs 125 wheels up for it or something.

 

Here a nice one for sale http://stlouis.craigslist.org/mcy/3858099166.html
2K seems way high

 

that one in St Louis is super pristine....but even so, 2K is just crazy talk!

i got two of them for $400.......and one was built and track ready. bought a third (turnkey track ready) for $500.

i sold one of them a year ago....and now just have the two.

if tanner ever finishes my tank and seat, i'll probably bring at least one to NJMP for a pitbike this August.

the spoked RS125 wheels (i have two sets), are a long term project as I need to get calipers and rotors....then also figure out how to mount them, etc.

i'll run a vic camp fairing on the one, and a TSS Bultaco fairing on the other.

i want to keep the wiring stock so I can run lights and make it streetable too.

fun little bikes....they should be sweet when finished.

 

had 2 two of these little critters.
one cherry red original and one that got a cr60 piston swap.
both were slugs.it was almost a joke. shift shift shift...etc.and still you were going no where in a hurry.cute bike.NS50 anyone?
