They are identical to the motohispania (?) rx50 (same engine, body work, wheels, brakes, basically everything ). So just look for reviews on them and it should give you a good idea.

i own the same bike, and having alot of trouble with it , still, ive heard alot of good stuff about them, (peugeot XR6 man)i think its just me...........
off the peugeot site road reviews:
"Yes, it’s a moped. But no, it’s not ‘just’ a moped. Peugeot’s new XR-6 is as much a pure sports bike as any CBR or GSX-R – it’s just a bit smaller, that’s all. And a bit slower, obviously, but not as slow as you might think"
"Once out of town and onto some country lanes, it easily got itself up to an indicated 50mph, and it could hold that up hill and down thanks to fairly low gearing. Too low in fact – on the flat it was easy to rev it another couple of thousand past the ten grand redline and way off the top of the 50mph speedo, which doesn’t bode well for reliability in the hands of speed crazed sixteeners – taller gearing would be better."
sadly, my Xr6 does about 15 mph flat out uphill......i bet the shop messed about with it before they gave it me "i brought it brand new".

they are a nice looking bike especially in red and silver. i saw one today infact at the dealer but with a price of 2 and a half grand its too expensive in my eyes to spend on a 50cc which u may only use for a year. There is no way you could ride a restricted geared 50 though you would have to be illegal and derestrict it if you were 16. If you are 17 you might as wel buy a 125 for the same price.

i seen one of these and i thought "wow that looks amazing"

[Wave2k]

if i was you i would get a cheapass Offroader 50cc
there about the same speed as an rs50, XR6
cost £1.50 to FIX if u stack
and can go offroad for more fun

Do a search here on BCF - there was another member who was about to get one, so perhaps he could help you out.

Have to agree with jimbo there.

I've watched 50cc racing - amazing stuff!

hey! cheers jimbo!, was kinda getting fed up of people dissing my bike (not saying anyone on here is.......i mean, people i know back in reality ) just because its 50cc, i know exactly what to tell em next time they take the mickey....lol.
whats the word the experienced bikers call my type?? is it "scooter boys?" or what??.
spose it makes them feel better to tease the newcomers to biking huh?.
ohh...sooooo looking forward to flips reply

[Jack2004]

Talk to a peugeot bike dealer, my friend inquired about one, turned out very expensive, about £3'800 all together.

[Flip]

50cc racing? See that in my high street all the time

Didn't know that actually happened...sounds dull..

(someone post a link for this, I've never heard of this)

And yes it would take skill to get 100mph out a 50cc ped engine

Got no problem with learners on 50's at all! Just saying don't compare them with 600 + thats all. Don't believe the hype. Salesmen will say anything as will manufacures. Their trying to sell bikes/peds.

Chill for f*cks sake...

I know there refering to position, attitude etc but please it's a 50cc!

If you like them, buy one. But I would get something cheap because you'll soon out grow it and possibly drop it. Buy what you want, it's your call and everyone starts somewhere. Even people with blades started with 50's etc. Follow your heart, dude

Never mentioned speed or bhp Jimbo, but 7bhp...steady on. (although they do weigh f*ck all) Do you work for Pug or what? :l ol:

Penis jokes, ahh I'm 15 again. One more thing...grow up Jimbo. Zzzzzz

Got to go, the lawn mower TT is on...

[jimbo]

Ahem ahem <<taps mike>> attention down the back!

[Flip]

I wasn't trying to spoil the enjoyment or put down a new biker. I'm simply saying that to me it seems extreme to compare a learner bike to a 'big' bike. That is all!

I have no experience of 50cc bikes. My NSR125 seemed sporty at the time. Handled great, sporty position but riding a gixxer then riding the NSR again was strange! Very strange
The sport feeling just wasn't there! That's all I'm saying.


Does this sound like putting people off? (I actually quite like the look of the pug)

[jimbo]

Aw, all is forgiven
So who's up for some C50 racing then?

https://racingcub.8k.com/racingcub3.jpg

or the raw silliness of British 50cc endurance racing?

@ Jimbo

You are also forgiven

[Reano]

the person who quoted it was me, and i know you wasn't insulting me or anything, i was reffering to many other kids i know back in the big cruel world. lol.

[Peugeot XR6 Man...]

Good morning... Reano has good taste (thanks for the mention ) in 50cc bikes, no it isn't a gixxer, it wont pull off the lights like a gixxer, it wont go faster than a gixers first gear, but if I can get my knee down on a 50 regularily and just go mad on corners, and have surprised big bikers (still left me tho ) and just generally makes any 16 year old feel like a dog with two dicks, then surely it is as easily as sporty as a Gixer, because sport has nothing to do with engines at all, its about fun. Fox hunting is sporting, thats the only reason they do it. they dont say that a learner on a little horse is not as sporting as a pro on a big horse.. do they?

Anyway Reano, stay cool, and don't do what i just did...

Head to the workshop and stop bumping 5 year old threads. .

You'll get a lot more help about mechanical things in The Workshop forum than New Bikers.
