I miss my RS

[mikeyg]

I still miss my rs 50. It was a fantastic little bike. It was the silver/grey 2002 GP-1 model which I bought from the dealer. Stock it did about 63 mph, which was not quite enough for me to feel safe. So I spent alot of cash and modified it with a Top Performance big bore top end, Del Orto big bore carb kit, carbon fiber reeds and cage, full arrow pipe/silencer, barnett racing clutch, jet kit, and then I re-geared it using taller gearing with sprocket specialists 14t front and 42t rear alloy sprockets. The bike would then push close to 90mph if you tucked down. But I do miss the sound of the two stroke motor and it sure got alot of looks, comments and questions from nearly everyone who saw it. It also had the looks of a true racebike. I had to sell it to get another bike as I couldn't keep both. Unfortunatley, according to the dealer, they are not importing them anymore which is a shame.
