Suzuki had totally dominated the 50cc Grand Prix racing scene for most of the 1960's, so it was no surprise that they would build a 50cc road going bike. The AS-50 would be more comfortable to ride than one of the 50cc Grand Prix bikes!
I came across your blog through Jesse Bowers' "JustACarGuy" blogspot. I look forward to working my way through all of the posts and making comments. I am especially interested in the tools - my recently deceased father worked in wood for his entire life and kept in his garage all of his original tools when he was an apprentice back in the early 1950's.
The girl has bigger cylinders!

Thanks for the comment! I do enjoy Jesse's blog. We have almost 8000 posts now so it will take a while. Enjoy!
