Default XR50 Motard From Japan Question?Help!!!!

I live in Japan and I am looking at getting a honda xr50 or xr100 Motard, they are only sold here in japan and are street legal as a scooter. I want to get one but I am wondering what and from where I will be able to get engine parts from, as I am leaveing to move to AZ soon. Does that engine come in another honda bike? also what are the rules in AZ about sooters, is it 50cc and below or 100cc? Here are a few pics of a Japanese guy here that works in the building next to me, his xr50 is pimp. Here is somemore info http://www.supermotoracer.com/....html

I've been looking around and I can get a 2005 50cc for about 1500, fully street legal.

Here the 100cc is known as the XR series(Japan is the Ape). I can not be 100% sure it is the same motor, but I would be willing to bet that it is the exact same power plant...

That engine is water cooled, the XR is air cooled.


I figure that with the money it will take to get a 50 up to par to ride I could have bought a xr50 Motard from Japan for cheaper, its already set-up for a full size adult to ride as far as the shocks, handle bars, and frame goes.

hey that xr50 looks like the crf80f engine. shipped here to states. that 100 enigine though is a liquid cooled unicam design. no match for his motard. hondas smallest crf model with that engine now is the crf150r. http://xr50.com/crf50xr50.html that is what we get. the bikes here have cylnder coming out the front of crankcase.
