Where can I buy parts for mine? Thinking about restoring mine from 25 years ago, I believe mine is a 1993 or 1994.

I need a new set of forks, and to rebuild the engine and tranny.

I rode that thing for 10 years, changed the oil probably 3 times. (dumbass i know)

Have the same bike for my daughter, regular training wheels hook right up to it or did you have to play with them to get it right?

Nice! My dad has a 68 he bought a couple years ago. He had one when he was 13.

These are a generic set that I got from my Honda dealer. Seem to work great...for him. Awkward to ride as an adult that knows how to ride.

My 1982 z50jz does enjoy a run to the bottle shop and back still makes me smile every time I rode it

A buddy of mine had one. Around 1977-78 I think. First motorcycle I ever rode. His older brother had a Trail 90 and we would cruise around the dirt roads playing CHIPS.
