Moped lad here too, from Shropshire. A P reg Honda SS50 5 speed with drum front brake and orange tank. Went everywhere in 78-79 on it. Had a fizzy years later. At 63 I only have a Honda PC50 and a Fantic Rally 50 as mopeds. Great story, of great days of freedom. Keep buzzing.
Takes me back to 1978! That's when it all began for me! I bought a friend's Casal ss4 . It was a 2 stroke, with the looks of a Honda SS50. Oddball that he bought out of a catalogue. Did 50. Happy days! Everyone else had the AP's & Fizzie's
😂oh the memories 😊we are going through this stage again 🎉all buying old ap suzuki and yam fizzys like we had at 16 and they are more fun than new bikes🎉🎉
KTM Comet Cross here in 1973, bought from the great Pete Hammonds in Cirencester, quite a rare bike back then, another was the Puch MS50 which predated the Puch GP50,s. Then after moped when it was 250's we had S1's / YDS7's / RD250's / Kawasaki A1's, .........still have a 500 triple to this day!
I was 16 had a Honda ss50 1977 model with disc brake did 42 mph in 5th gear. Did Sheffield to Skegness on a full tank of fuel. Think about 80p a gallon. 😅
Great Video mate, I had a Puch moped, it got me through college,I wish I had an AP50 like you or the Fizzy, but I now have a R6 for the summer months :)
I paid £120 for my purple fs1e. JAN 118N. 65cc big bore with a micron. 50 mph on the flat, 4 star by the gallon, £2 to fill up. An old dear turned right into the side of it, got my right foot between the car and rear shock. Passed my test and got an RD500lc. Terrible image quality short of my current scooter on my channel. 1999 HD FXDL.
Had a Puch V50 in 76, in Penwortham near Preston, bloody great. Had 62 motor bikes since and still alive! just.
Fantastic days
Gang of us flying around

Had a yellow FS1E/DX bought new in '76. Good days back then...
They were posh, front disc break and the yellow was very cool, can’t remember seen on in my home town Lowestoft

Two wheels that’s what counts 👍
