Probably the best looking QT I’ve seen

Wonderful two stroke engine ...i love 2t...their noise and scent of mix ...my mind remember

[peterscottodonnell]

This is the best chunky looking Yamaha Hopper I've seen .

These are 6 volt but there is a 12 volt line coming off the charge system! So on mine i was able to run a big rectangle headlight on it. Look for that unconnected wire coming from the charge coils. And you got it baby!

Must be really satisfying seeing it all go back together. You've done an amazing job on it, It reminds me of the Royal Navy adverts going from doing up a bike to working on a helicopter .

[AlanCooney]

Darren, you have created something quite unique!!! Perhaps you could call this a labour of love?? It's fascinated me to see your patience and attention to detail - makes great viewing!!!

[stephencains]

Cracking job Darren, pleasure to see this project come together with an amazing result.

[dayneditiont.]

Awesome job! It's been a pleasure watching this. 😊

[rodmorton]

Great content, really enjoyed this thanks 👍

[IceeyReaper]

love the build what head light is that id love to get one if you have the purchase info thanks again

[eliotsell]

Very nice build. I have a 1979 that I have refurbished. Where did you get the in frame grommets for the cable routing? I cant find any and mine disintegrated long ago.

[cmac]

Nice one Darren, looks mint. I’m now bidding on a Honda NC 50, what a great little project. I love what you did to it and it reminds me of my youth in 90s! Could you bore these out bigger than a 60? As long as I can get 40 out of it will be fine to nip to gym and back and cruise down to Hayling Island.

Defininitly a great restore, but i was wondering how to properly take off the brake light indicators attached to the brake...

[RobRandom]

looking the biz mate, , , take the stand off and bend the last bit out to clear the tyre edge :) use a vice but might need a touch up if the powder coat cracks.

[ricardoermocilla]

Nice Job!!! Bought Ma50M 1986 few days back but not sure about the tyre conversion, could you tell me the equivalent size for front and rear tyres, looks amazing with those knobblies!!! Thanks

[paulcurry]

I did similar with a little RS125, I sold it to go towards my T6 tho👍🏻

[miguelpagansr]

Very nice build indeed, the regulator that you installed is that for the lights or the charging system? Can’t wait to see the test ride video.

[joeyball]

Where did you get your adjustable shock?

[penfoldsadventures]

Hi mate the difference is night and day grand job! Has been fun watching you strip and rebuild.
Also do you know how to wire up my heated seats i got switchs but think I need a kufatec loom?
Looking forward to your next project.

[Mechanicaltinkerer]

Do you have a link to that rear shock?
