    Hey there... I don't have a motorbike but I do have a 50cc 4stroke Honda Zoomer. It's a great little bike. A group of us bought them 8ish years ago for the craic.. anyway I always wanted to swap the engine to something bigger 125cc -200cc as its really slow.(40mph Max) Supposedly it's easily done if you know your way around a bike... it's really popular in the UK Japan and US. Is there anyone out there in the bike trade that can get their hands on the parts or doner bike and might be willing to take this on even as a nixer??? I've dried stored it over the years and bring it out for a spin a few days each summer..

    Cool bike.
    Not sure about the engine swap but I'd love to mod one of them.
    Have your friends still got theirs?
    Any for sale,no?

    That's my zoomer in the pic... lots of mods just need bigger engine... one of the lads has one forsale but it's a project bike and needs bits... but you would get it cheap...

    No it's not running.. all parts can be be got from Honda . I think it needs a fuel pump.

    That's a nice tidy job you've made of it.
    You don't have any pic of your mates one,I suppose?
