Honda MT50

The honda mt50, a legendary bike ok i havent it for long but its very good, I have a big one exhaust and that has improved the speed. when we first bought it we had problems with the carb but that wasnt due to the fact that honda are unreliable infact my father fixed it in no time. The bike handles gorgeously, its nippy (but being a 50cc nothing like a 250 two stroke crosser) but every day i ride it it just amazes me. I think that being restricted as much as it is, is a pain in the jacksee. but the handling of this beast is lovely brakes are fab, forks are fab, its just hard to find performance parts but when you find some parts, get it before they vanish the only option is a H100A dont get the s doesnt fit. but the honda is brillant and is extremly reliable , treat her right and she will treat u right too.

i have honda mt50 1981 starts first kick cant ask for more

I have a 1980 Honda MT50 and it still starts up first kick every time. Never misses a beat. A great learners bike and lots of fun to ride.

Its a Honda - what more can I say.

My Honda MT50 Offroad Bike does 60 mph with big borekit. Great fun, good looking bike! Would recommend!

When the Honda MT50 first came out it was probably the best 50cc around. I got mine for my 16 birthday about a year ago. My brother had had one a year before me and it was extremely reliable. For some reason mine wasn't the same, it cut out in the rain, on good days it only did about 40mph with a bore kit installed, every time I put a new piston in it it got scratched up straight away and the electrics were extremely poor - the lights hardly ever worked and when they did they hardly lit up the road. Parts weren't too hard to find but it was easier for me because I had my brothers old one to use for spares. I've spoken to people about the MT50 and heard that about 1 in 5 MT50's had dodgy electrics. If you do buy one get rid of it as soon as it starts to get on your nerves because the chances are its the one in five.
