I'm pretty sure that's a CG50 not CY50 which would mean it has the vertical motor. I'd get better pics and a model number.

Duh, I wrote the wrong one. It is vertical. I meant to say vertical. Derp moment.

I ended up buying it. It is missing the mirrors and the horn. I'll look up some aftermarket parts to see what I can get. It is fast. I know the speedometer maxes out at 30, but I must have been going 45. I'll check it better later. Drove two hours for it. I hope, but think it was totally worth it.

It was also missing the kick stand. I purchased a kick stand and the horn. I'm looking for some aftermarket mirrors. I'm pretty sure the threads are normal threads and not backwards ones. 8mm? I'm not sure.

the guy I bought it from found it in some guy's barn on craigslist and traded an RC car for it. He's a professional mechanic and purchased (all brand new) some things it was missing...like a rear tire, the torque spring, drive belt. then he painted the purple jog plastics black to give it a red and black look. He also swapped out the air filter with an aftermarket one and gave me the old one...so now I'm going to sell a stock jog air filter (CG50) to whomever needs it. Also, he jetted the carb and did something to the jug. He put in synthetic oil in it as well.
