Actually they're cheap. I think I paid 249.00 for it. It might be a cheap knock off but tons of fun. Went by a CBR one day, I thought he was going to go off the road laughing. Had the helmet and leather on...too funny.

I bought because I couldn't afford what I have now at the time. Planned on racing it but never got around to it. Maybe one day it would be a good pit bike for track days!

oh man, i had a "pitbike" an orion i think. and if i could only say one thing about them, THEY SUCK! make shure you have a warrenty or sompething. the street bike's dont seem to be to bad but the dirtbike knockoffs...... the exhaust fell off (while riding) the stator rusted up, it ate sparkplugs like a fat kid eats cake, not to mention its hard as hell to find jap knockoff plugs, the brake pads seemd to be made of chalk and the clutch was almost non existant. it never really engauged, if you put it in gear and tried to stop, even with the clutch fully engauged it'd still pul you along at 2-3mph. i ended up junking it[:@] but until i did that it was a fun lil' bike. and i did plenty of stoppies on it. and wheelies. and burnouts. and jumps. and doughnuts, and you get the idea

^^^^ lol..
yeah. those knockoffs are total sh'tboxes. i saw a dude get a BRAND NEW 125.. ride it for 1 mile, and it lost a sprocket bolt, the other 3 were loose, it was burning oil.. i had to adjust the clutch on it..
man, what crap.
couldn't even clutch a 2nd or 3rd gear sitdown on it. had to bounce and clutch second....

i love my fiddy tho. rock solid. besides, for stuntin little bikes, you can't find anything for anything other than a honda anyway.. i can't complain.. i got my XR-50 for $400. with BBR big bars and shocks already on it..
made a steel brake lever perch and wound a stator for it, ported and polished the head, did rings, polished the case, put pegs on the swingarm.. its a beast now.

yeah ive had my share of hondas, xr70,xr80 xr250 xl650 and im looking at an xr100 as a f**k around bike.
as far as 50's go... i love my 50sx its so damn high for such a lil' bike, it goes into the air like nuthin and the power to weight ratio makes for some sweet doughnuts and wheelies
