Adrian I had the Honda 50 1966 -65 same, It was exactly like this one, I took the guard off it cause I was dirt riding with it. I was just a young kid at the time, my Dad bought it for me, so I would get experience before moving up and driving on the street. We had miles of trails and hills, gravel roads and creeks to jump over, my Mother hated me having the bike, hey I am fortunate to still be here today. I beat that bike to death and it still kept running. you wouldn't believe the hills I climbed with that bike. I can tell you many stories of my biking days alone, I could write a book. From time to time I might share one or two.
