Remember ’em well. Nicely finished with as you said HUUUUGE mirrors. And as for the SS50….. Well it was my first road legal bike and it taught me a lot about engines. I could strip one down blindfolded back then as they weren’t the most reliable of beasts. It was a 5 speed and it was pretty quick when it went. Still think the FS1E was the better of the 50’s from that era. Exhaust didn’t burn your leg either! Look forward to hearing about the moped’s progress Cookeye.
