Just picked it up this afternoon from Mission Motorcycles in Daly City. The service was awesome and it was a very simple transaction. I got a better price even than Honda of Milpitas. They also stocked the Fast 50 bar, clamp, throttle, skid plate, and shifter lever, all of which I picked up. Can't wait to put on the bar and ride it.

Thanks Rich. Tried to wheelie it in 2nd, but doesn't seem like enough power to get the front up. Maybe the higher bar will help. I tried revving it up in 2nd and close/open throttle quickly, but nothing happened.

Per friend's suggestion, I think I better remove all the bodywork before I dump it. Streetfighter look.

once you break it in. it will get a little more power. if you put a
pipe on it, there will be a big difference.
when i'm in 1st and shift to 2nd it just comes right up.:teeth :teeth

What's the best pipe that's not super loud? (so can do night time hooliganism without neighbor calling cops)

congrats! they are way fun little bikes and sounds like you got the deal. I'm still going in circles re: bar choice but if they got the goods in stock that helps alot!

TCG exhaust mod is to just remove the spark arrestor. then when you need stealth or safety just put it back on. three bolts, no biggie. if you must have bling there are hollow end caps on ebay for... $55!?! :rolleyes me personally I like the ghetto look of the stock can de-restricted :) just painted the end flat black and saving fiddy-five bucks.

a K&N air filter kit comes with filter, pre-filter and a bigger jet. then go one step colder plug to a NGK CR7HSA for hi rpm running. with a de-restricted exhaust as above, call that stage 1. there are uni pod filters you can fit too if you don't like the K&N gauze type. you might be able to shim the needle too? but I don't know anything about that yet or if this carb even has a needle :p

yeah. way fun :cowboy

Mission Motorcycles had a fully tricked out Fast50 bike with every F50 components on it, so I was able to see how my fit was. The bar/clamp felt much better than the stock; now I just gotta get around to doing my bike swap.
