@ German Honda ST50 DAX

Hi! I am writing to let you know how happy I am with the help you provided in restoring my 1972 Honda ST 50. I will try to make a long story short so here it is. We were in Germany with the military in 1972 and this was my first bike (I was 14). It is a German model so not common in the U.S. It is basically a trail 70 with a smaller engine (50cc is street legal in Germany with out a regular MC license). It was in storage for nearly 25 years but time took its toll. You had the new tires, chain & sprokets, battery, foot pegs & hand grips. You took the time to help me get the unusual over-size front headlight bucket which was broken on my bike. Most importantly I got a new carburator from you which made the bike run just like new! Ironically I spent a total of $325 to restore it which was almost exactly what I paid for the bike new in 1972! Well the paint & chrome is still faded but it runs and rides like new. I have attached a two pics! Thanks again DRATV,

P.S

I have included a wiring diagram for this bike just in case some other German Honda 50 owner needs help with the wiring. It is in German but it is easy to find word translation on the internet. Similar to CT 70 but differences in lighting.
