True Grits 50cc Fun Run- Who's gonna be there?

The event is set for October 27 at Two wheels of Suches in Georgia. I believe the pack heads out at 1:30 PM, but the website said to try to be there by 11 AM(only participants?).

Information is available on this website: True Grits 50cc Fun Run

Find the green box and click on the link for 2018 information.


I'm sure going! I'll bring my little screamer and tape off the '2' in '250'. A CBR 50R. That would be fun! Hoping to see a dream 50 at the event, and one with more than 0 miles at that.

CBR is out of action, it slowly died like it had in the past with fuel starvation issues from a kinked fuel line. The exhaust smells like fuel, and the bike will sort of run, but obviously not on all cylinders. It has intermittently run on all vs some cylinders at startup for a while. Guess it’s time to figure it out!

Thankfully I have a spare (less) cool bike for the ride tomorrow.

Well, it was cold and wet, but people still went! Didn't get to see a dream 50 there unfortunately. My dad also wanted us to leave early cause it was "too cold", so we didn’t get to see the clown show head out. I need to just get him to take his 800 on trips like this so he has his heated grips.

I could put off getting a dream 50 if I could get one of these! This would be a Honda XL75. It only has 4 speeds, but the newer 5 speed XR80 engine should swap right in there. That would be fun! They were even sold here too! Owner said he got his for $550 IIRC, CHEAP!


Custom twin cylinder Honda NS50


Likely one of the original 1960’s era Honda dreams. Didn’t see any obvious markings saying displacement.


Here is what the NS50 is supposed to look like


Cute little NSR50. The thing’s proportions are just comical! It is as if someone stuck fairings on a Grom with a straight face. It had 12” wheels just like the Grom too.


My 250 revs higher. Heck, my 400 revs higher! The red speed lines on the dash starting at 30 mph is pretty comical too.



Oh, and I saw a FURRY there!!? That would have to be the first time I have seen a furry in the wild, and at a motorcycle event of all places? No pics of furry dude, cause I’m a chicken.

It wasn't Balto was it? That'd be a long trip to GA.

Nah, unless Balto is a fat guy in his 50's and has a fursuit head that looks like this:



^Not actual picture^

The guy just had a head and tail on.
