Crap from the Italian airplane factory.
Rebadged Bennelli or Gerrelli.
The Honda Mini Trail 50 was better.
I could not afford one of those back then,the paper route did not pay enough!Had to settle for a Bird mini bike.

I hada blue one in 1972. It was 80cc, would go 50 miles an hour. It was 5 speed AMF harley Davidson. I was 13. The only problem was no one to ride with. The cost was between 6 and 7 Hundred Dollars. I been looking for a picture of that bike for 2 years. Thanks for finding it for me.

When I was a kid we had trail 70's QA 50's then SL 125's No 2 stroke HD crapola.If I was gonna get a 2 stroke back then,WAIT I did,it was a Kaw.
My family couldn't afford anything store bought but I was happy my dad made me a home made motor scooter with a Briggs Stratten engine. I thought I had died and gone to heaven.
