I had a C50 when I was 13-14. I remember I used to take it down to some waste land to ride it and my parents came down one day.
My Mum wanted to have a go so I started to explain the crack with the centrifugal clutch and gear change.
No sooner had I started my Dad piped up and said " She was riding bikes before you were born son"
Thoroughly reprimanded and feeling slightly foolish I let her get on with it.
She revved it hard then banged it into gear and yes you've guessed it.
The front wheel came up while she hung off the back pulling the throttle back as she did and crashed it into some stinging nettles.
I wanted to laugh but I daren't until I knew she wasn't hurt.
I've averaged 39.2 mpg on my MT10......... Yes I'm a sad Foccer too.
