Awsome pics, sounds like you had a great time, congrats. I wish I was small enough to and had a place to ride 50 since it's good practice.

you cant possbily be too big, really...I have friends that are HUGE and they can get on the lil boogers with no problem, they look a lil funny, and they cant go as fast as someone my size but still...its wildly entertaining...
especially when famous last words before getting on are "here, hold my beer"...ah the memories... |

I am 6'1" and about 180. I also have a tall fiddy because I have a longer front end and swingarm.

your about the same build as me looks like... I'm a little taller but about the same weight.
did you mod the 50 yourself or buy it that way? |

it was modded a lot, i changed some stuff but it kept the same dimensions. I had to change front ends because I wanted disc brakes instead of drum. I regeared it for tight parking lot racing, did some cosmetic stuff too.

how much you sink into that? I'd be intrested in getting one... but I'll probably just end up with a dirtbike... unless i endup getting a small house IN the city... then it's 50cc's to anoy the neighbors!
