Me too,dont see the point of pedals and with the state of my right leg I would only go round in circles anyway. ;D
Mrs Bitz has just won one of these things and reckons its worth around 650 squids. :o :-/

I was buying the first ones in 1973, chose the Honda over the Fizzie cos in had indicators, turned out is was very slightly slower than the fizzie, still talking 50 mph though. happy days...... ;D ;D ;D ;D

Yeah!!!! SS50's were hondas, AP50's Suzukis, Fizzies were Yammies, 4 gears, all down. Just comparing Daz. 8-)

In fact i think Yamaha were the first to bring out a geared bike with pedals (FS1E) but the very first ones were gold in colour & badged Yamaha SS50. Same as the Fizzie but i'm sure the early ones were'nt actually called FS1E's. Sorry to be pedantic as the SS50 as we know it was a 4 stroke Honda.
    Some one must remember....please!!!! ::)

They look to be a 'top of the range' bike producer.
This might help.
