I had an AP50 in 1976 , my first bike , just left school baking hot summer , long hair and spots , my mates had "fizzys" and one had the Honda SS50 which just couldn't keep up with us , halcyon days indeed ..........oh and the music was definitely much better .
My first bike was an AP50 my mate had the A50P the main difference mine was always breaking down. Terrible points. I learned a lot about maintenance in that year. His was restricted mine wasn't. As a result mine was quite fast. I got clocked doing 50mph on flat level road with no wind. It was quicker than all my mates Fizzies.
Does this have AUTOLUBE, ? my 1976 example of an AP50 had its oil tank on / as its RH side panel with a clearly obvious chrome screw cap , ! it had a decal saying "Suzuki CCI " and lower down a rubber grommet with a metal plunger device that you pushed in to keep an eye on the 2 T oil level . I cant see any of that , so is it a work round that is now reliant on pre mix ? Its a fair question because if so its not original and therefore over priced, I would have thought it in your interests to clarify.
@chrishallmotorcycles well apologies for any adverse coments ? its just that if say a purist comes along , he /she they would focus on that straight away. So a fair question would be is any seperate 2 stroke tank obscured elsewhere? or was this model intended to run on premix.
Rubbish, bring out the fizzy 🤣🤣🤣 only old people like me will get that joke.. we used to ride these as teenagers in the 70s, and there was two camps, this and the yamaha fs1 (which i had).. we used to race these to see whos was faster.. good old days.......

I repaired an ap50 for a young lad back in the day.
He'd fitted a nice new long reach plug that got the gap adjusted by the piston.
A very well built bike back in the day but always in the shadows of the rest of the super Peds of the day 😊👍

I bought a new one 1973 got it doing 63 going down hill, crazy kid
They weren't out in 1973
@@bobrogers7004 Not as an A50P but the A50 was earlier than 73, I had one on an L reg as a field bike in the early 80's and it was fairly quick.
Had one of this in 1977.
so beautifull these re the bikes of yrs ago
Thats nice! 👏👍🤙🖖✌🤘👌🍻
They were the restricted ones ? Remember riding one home for a friend, I’d have got there faster pedaling.

Remember those things, so slow compared to the AP
