80something Honda QR50

This one belongs to my little lad. By the time he out grows it little sis should be about the right size, she's already sitting on the front of my TY round the trail park.

Unsure of the year of this one, not needed any parts as yet. Top end is a little rattly though maybe it was always like that. The QR shares it's motor with the good old Honda Melody moped, nice and reliable plus basic and easy to fix.

It's got a limiter on the throttle which he is ready to have wound out a bit now as his throttle control is coming on a treat. These hold strong money to this day and are still regarded as one of the best starter bikes by many.

Puddle was a bit deeper than expected, dam that low slung airbox


Super cool, rocking the right number too

Brings back memories for me too! I had a little red crosser when i was about 7. Think it was malaguti? or maybe a LEM. But anyways went out one day to a little kids "track/field day" tried swapping my bike for this kids kawasaki 60cc. He was up for it, but of course his dad wasnt!!

So many people started out on these QR'S. I've been hearing all day today about people having these as there first bike and how no body has a bad word to say of them.

Here's a vid of the boy down at the docks today.
