Wanted: C50

Post by Norm » Wed Sep 13, 2017 11:12 am

Posting for a friend looking to get into Cubs - he's looking for a C50, preferably a round light, 12 volt version (1982/83 C50LAC etc.).

Up to £1000 depending on condition (ideally he needs one "ready to ride" - no major work, welding, etc.)

I have a completely refurbed 0% rot one.

Its in dark metallic grey 2 pack. 1983 c50lac. Needs a little finishing but not a great deal.

Original engine plus a c90 electric start or lifan 110. Pm if pics required.

Thanks - could you post/PM a pic? I've got a feeling that he's looking for an original-looking one in red or blue, but you never know...

As an idea.

Have plastics etc. Wheels rebuilt. Open to negotiation to keep these as they're lovely. Exhaust not included.

Has never been ridden on the road since the work done. All bolts etc zinc plated, small parts powdercoated, new seat cover, new M45's, Passport rack etc etc.

I can dig it out, it's been covered up in the shed for the last few years.

As I suspected, he wants an original-looking bike - thanks anyway.

No worries. Not 100% sure if I want to sell it anyway! Trying to justify 3 cubs and two other bikes. :mrgreen:
