PostPosted: 18:32 - 23 Jan 2011    Post subject: Recommend Me a 50cc Reply with quote

I've been set about with the task of finding my brother a 50cc for when he turns 16 in a month or so.

He says he likes the look of the DNA 50 and doesn't want the typical ped. So I'm just looking for some advice on what other good 50's to look out for.

Cheers.

I've always figured if I were 16 again I'd probably get a DT50.

And maybe pop the DT80 engine in Smile

Depends if he wants to go geared or not. I'm 16 next months and i've just got me a Gilera DNA 50 and its mint. i love it.

If he wants to go auto and not have a ped shape. Got DNA Smile

Those Rieju's look amazing for a first bike. Was thinking of an RS50 but they can be quite pricey.

He wasn't looking for a geared bike but he might change his mind once I show him some of these.

Probably too much for what he's thinking, but its about to have a full service and has full service history, had it since new, I love her, but I have a Hornet in the making Laughing

If you're not near the south coast no point even talking, unless you wanna travel.
