Just a quickie, are the rs50 and rs125 only dissimilar in the engine department? Because i've been lusting after an rs50 for as long as i can remember, and i'm trying to settle on a bike that i can save up for. Thing is, i only want the 50 if i can use all the aftermarket rearsets, monoshocks and such on it.
And before anyone asks why i want the 50 over the 125, it's because i dont need the speeds the 125 gives, i'm happy at 65, or even 60, cause i live for the twisties and the rs bikes have a top notch chassis and ride quality (just wear earplugs lol!)

Hi

Pretty much nothing in common between the 50 and 125. And you are not going to get a true 65 out of an RS50 without a fair bit of effort.

All the best
