Nice work on the Suzuki, just a suggestion but on a lengthy project like this consider preparing adequate work space so you don’t have to prematurely wear out your back and knees working on the damn ground…..the 50 year old you will appreciate it-
Similar to mine, the rear tire just need to be “trued” basically some spokes may be loose and need to be tightened, the rim may be slightly out of alignment also. Local shop should be able to sort that out no problem 😊
Good job. I just picked up a beat up Fa50, it runs decently I just need to repair the cosmetics. How fast does yours go? Mine tops out at 20mph. Im hoping it could hit 30mph
I'm in Tacoma near point defiance. I have an fa 50 and 2 yamaha qt50's, one is like new, it won an award a few weeks ago. Get in touch an we'll do a loop around 5 mile drive point defiance. Lots of places to ride here. I'm registered and legal to own my lane.
Hey I'm in Auburn and working on getting an fa50 running right now But a restored Honda Express last year and fell in love with it but unfortunately it got it got stolen. Right now I'm working on getting this running hopefully by summer but I'm pretty inexperienced as I said never had any scooter or anything before the Honda and could use some guidance haha
Also was wondering if you knew where to get any wheels locally although wheels and tubes I found online seem pretty spendy is that standard price though? About 100 bucks? They are odd size I'm noticing lol
I had one. Of these when I was 15 and loved that thing went every where. Lots of good memories.
I love this kind of video!

Dude I just bought this exact same bike. Thank u I am not a genuse when it comes to restoring.
You never got it put back together? How come you don't show it at the end and instead show a pre-paint bike?
I just did a new paint job on my FA50. Took all the old paint off. Boy was that a pain.
Hello friend good video, do you have the electrical diagram of that motorcycle? greetings from Venezuela South America
My rear tire kinda wobbles when it's on kick stand. Is that normal? Lol

Oh man, I really wanted to hear that 2 stroke sound clip at the end:(
The transmission in this thing is a nightmare to reassemble from zero.

Much respect putting that back together. So often we take things apart and then get lost in the reassembly. How many days did this take?
i am searching for a front basket, where do you think i can find it.
Porque no sale chispa a la bujía de mi fa 50 es modelo 1982 le agradezco algún comentario saludos
cool
Sweet FA50! I’ve got two of them and live in the Mukilteo area. If you know some other people with them we should get a meet going haha
That would be awesome. Know any good spots to go? We have a QT50 that needs some restoration, but that does sound like a blast
@@pnwproject4653 I do not, these things are so hard to get around being so slow haha

I got the same one. Same color. Thought I could do it but heck no. I'm in michigan usa.

Your doing it all wrong! It needs to be sand blasted, then it should be powder coated.
