Simson S50
A beautifully restored and rebuilt UK model Simson S50 B1 from a very good home where it has had a nut and bolt refurbishment and complete professional re-spray top-to-bottom. Classic Bike Workshop couldn’t resist having a look for the source of a little top-end rattle and replaced the small-end bearing and base gasket and it is super-quiet now. In fact the engine internals passed close examination and we can confirm that the bottom end is perfect and the piston/bore similarly serviceable. As you can hear in the video all is well mechanically and as you can see it is a beautiful period machine from 1978 when these models were actually very competitive in the hotly-contested moped performance stakes. Complete with new soft panniers; we left the frames on but they are easily removed if you want that absolutely standard model look.
