That's great dude! Sounds like a strong Puch! So that's an honest 57 miles; you can't beat that...
Looks like you have a very complete plan and a nice start! Super choice on the MLM pipe, Devin makes some amazing creations. I've got some buddy's that he has made custom pipes for, that are out of this world... Both in looks AND performance. His shop where MLM pipes are made is in Indiana, if I remember correctly.
GREAT choice of wheels; I've never been a big fan of the "snowflakes," but the limited wheels you chose are my favorite moped wheels.
Most definitely keep us posted on your build. Be sure to take lots of pics!
Thanks for sharing, man - j

Did anyone here pick up this Honda NS50 that was in the Knoxville craigslist over the weekend? I saw the ad on day two but the bike was sold and the ad is now gone. All the original side cover and tank stickers were pulled, but it had the optional motor shrouds, and looked in decent shape and complete. Had a plate so it might have had a title. Anyway, it was listed as "first $650 takes it" and it sold fast. Looks like someone got a deal!

Well dudes, I did it again... Sidetracked from my "buy-wheels-next" focus and bought a really freaking rare / oop, racing part. As well, the seller
knew this was a rare part...
Pics up in a few days,

There was also a quite nice looking one on the Chicago Craigslist about 5 days back. A little over 2k miles all original, looked very clean but with one small tank dent, this one still had the colorful stickers intact. Listed at $1000 now apparently sold. I did call on it, but never got a reply perhaps a buyer was already in the works.
Thanks Mike for the heads up about this one now on ebay. Might get expensive but keepin' an eye on it, we'll talk about your travels up that way... Check out the other bikes the same person has listed, many cools bikes I especially dig the black Honda Super 90. The guy has several very very low mileage bikes listed. Also just found another ebay ad with a small collection of 4 bikes including an MB5, black Gyro, CT70 and CT90.
Pretty odd how many of these have been turning up lately, considering over the years I've seen looooong stretches with none in sight...

@ Mr. MotorMike;
So.... Ive been extremely busy the past week with working at the shop in the daytime, and working with the Humane Society Songbird Rescue and Rehab all the other minutes of the day (and night!) so I have not had time to install the newest part that arrived... I promise I will take pics soon!
So what did I buy?
A
BURIAL Mega Blaze Chamber. (expansion chamber exhaust system...).
So what makes this pipe so special?
-First, BURIAL chambers are incredible in both construction quality, and the all out
POWER they make.
-BURIAL Japan didnt make many pipes for the NSR50 - NS50F/R. A friend in Japan told me that they were too expensive to produce, and had an insanely high retail price.
-This pipe has a "Big Bike" look. -Instead of having the small outlet pipe that connects the chamber to the silencer, this pipe has a much larger pipe that connects to a BIG (or "Mega") silencer. This exhaust system has a real "Japanese" look to it... I love the BURIAL "Mega Blaze" badge on the silencer.
- This BURIAL NS - NSR pipe is far and few, even in Japan...
I will post up some pictures tonight!
Later dudes, jon
