Hey guys! Not new to bikes, I've been riding for 40 years. All the way from MX bikes to Goldwings, but I've never had a scooter. Recently got out of the big bikes and my garage seemed kinda lonely so I picked up an old ratty Suzuki AE50 to play around with, maybe even get my son interested in two wheelers! The bike has definitely seen better days! Lol, but it seems to run great so I think it will be a good platform for a fixer upper. Parts seem kinda iffy on these models, so I'll probably be retrofitting ebay stuff to replace broken signals and such. Lol, impressed with the output of the little two stroke, moves my fat arse better than I thought it would! So, glad to be here and looking up info on everything scooter related, thanks for letting me join! TLDR version: Old fat guy buys beat up 50cc two stroke, Hi!

Welcome to the forum. Fun is not always proportional to displacement.

Welcome to the forum. Fun is not always proportional to displacement. Thanks! Took it out for a little rip this morning. Cripes it's loud! Lol, I think someone was messing with the exhaust before, maybe tried to take the baffle out. Might have to look into that or I'll have the whole town organizing a lynch mob and coming after me!
