Honda PC 50 - non runner

 HONDA PC 50 -non runner

I know. How can this be a non-runner?

I have 2 of these. This one was bought as a non runner for spares. but I did it up a bit as you can see because it was in recoverable condition. I can’t help it! I didn't get it running first!

The handlebar stem and rims are painted. You could get them re-chromed but I don’t think it’s worth it.

No speedo but OK to MoT as it doesn’t do more than thirty mph. (so I’ve been told).

Front mudguard has a split near the top anchor point (see pic).

I thought the exhaust was OK cleaned up. New exhausts are for sale elsewhere if you want to improve this further.

I put new foam in the seat and stripped/painted the base. It’s the original cover which is good and perfectly serviceable. Again. you can get a new cover if you want.

The (new) paint has crazed a bit on the left hand side of the main frame for some reason (see pic). all other paint is fine.

I also put new stickers on it as you can see from the pictures.

I have applied for a V5 and had confirmation that DVLA are dealing with it so I should have the V5 by close of auction. I will update the listing appropriately.

 Re: Non – runner.

I thought with fresh fuel it would start. It didn’t. I found there was no spark so I fitted a new plug. Still no good. I am no mechanic and so do not delve into the internal workings. A mate checked it over and it’s producing power. but it’s not getting to the points (and therefore the plug) for some reason. We haven’t tried to get the dynamo out. we just tested for output by rotating it. The loom (and coil/condenser or whatever) is OK because it ran when I put the engine out of the other one into this frame. That’s as much as I can tell you.

As I have another (better) one. I have decided to sell it as it is and let someone else fathom it out.

You might know what’s wrong with it and be able to fix it. Or you might already have a tatty one with a good engine so you could just put the good engine in this frame - whatever. I just need the space in my shed back!

 It’s sold as seen. not running. Any questions. just ask. Collection only and cash on collection.
