31rx7 Posted August 16, 2008 Report Share Posted August 16, 2008 1982 Honda Urban Express (model NU50). I bought this bike off of eBay last year to use as a pit bike at the race track. It has served me well and is dead reliable for this purpose. It kick starts every time, even after sitting for months. I used it last winter in a snow storm to go around the neighborhood to find a lost dog! In any case, it is a two stroke, oil injection 50cc bike. Transmission is a two speed automatic. It has front and rear suspension, and tires are good. Top speed is about 30 mph. It is ideal for putting around the camp site, farm, or race track. I do have a clear title for it, and the bike can be licensed. However, the lighting on the bike does not work properly and would need to be repaired to do so. The other issues with it are: - Rear fender not installed (I have two that go with the bike) - Oil light comes on indicating oil tank is empty. However, the oil injection does work so the sensor in the oil tank needs replaced (there's one on eBay now for $9 or so). - Carb needs tuned or rebuilt as the bike sputters and misses at higher speeds. However, since I just used it at the race track, it didn't matter to me. I have no pictures at the moment but should be able to post some tomorrow. There is one on eBay at the moment if you search on "Honda Urban Express". Thanks for looking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

street pilot Posted August 20, 2008 Report Share Posted August 20, 2008 Did I say "We're Dealin'!" Does that mean OBO? What's the deal with the lights, do they work when the throttle is pegged? I have a friend who has been looking for one of these, I sent him the info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a friend who has been looking for one of these, I sent him the info. The turn signals have a mind of thier own. Sometimes they work, sometimes not. The rear brake light is on all the time. The headlight does not work. Basically, the wiring for the lights needs checked. There is likely a short somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
