	honda ss50 4 speed manual clutch. soon to be my daily retro, instead of a modern step through. I have cleaned it up as much as poss, without putting new parts on. I had a pair of 2nd hand wheels as the old ones were shot. so here it it with 38 years of patina. all ready for the mot. then before I sell my step through, i,ll fit a 90cc uprade from a c90 that I have. (where the wheels came from).

	just bear in mind if you fit the 90 to that bottom end you need to swap a lot more than just the barrel and piston kiddo.. crank oil pump drive barrel piston cam chain head head studs also it needs to be cub90 not C90 to be a direct swap.. (c90 had points in head and different engine mounts etc also distuinguishable but the fact flywheel cover has three screws) feel free to PM me if you need any other useless advice!

	I know its sold now so may be not relevant but I am genuinely interested to know, How is that classified as a moped ?, I thought mopeds of that age had to be able to be pedalled like this one and I don't see no pedals on yours.

	Volvo back as my main squeeze, more boost and some interior goodies on the way.
