WTB a used 50cc gasser (Bought one)

I think Gator has one for sale..not sure about cheap though...

The last time I looked at RCU marketplace there were 2 or 3 used bme 50's and a DA 50 for sale. Have you looked there?

Yea I saw em but if Im going to pay with 50-100 bucks or so of a new one.....why not buy new? I always kind of figured a used engine should have a used engine price. While Im on the rant I see a lot of saito engines over there that are used.....that I can buy cheaper from my LHS..on the other hand he gives me a good price kinda a volume discount maybe? :lol:

I dont know of too many people that are going to take much over a 100 dollar loss on a 50 size very good condition motor. They last almost forever. There is a bme 50 almost new on there now for 440 no muffler. IMO if you could get it for 425 that would be a good deal but you could allways make a 400 dollar offer and see if he takes it. I have bought 3 bme's used over the last few years. The best deal was an almost new 50 with pitts muffler and TT spinner for 425 and I almost feel like I stole it from him but you cant be in a hurry to get a deal like that

I've noticed some high prices on used 50 cc gassers too. Makes you wonder what the life expectantcy is on these things. Possibly in a few years we may see some really good deals on these? (based on the assumption that they are long lived)

Whadddaya think?

........

I was looking at these much like I would a smaller glow engine.....Maybe thats my problem.....I was kinda hoping I could find something like a Brison at a fairly cheap price since ppl dont seem to care as much for them as say a DA....I have a friend that runs them though an loves them.
To bad a G62 is such a hunk....I coulda bought a G62 an a US41 for 175 bucks a while back. :wink: Wish now I woulda but didnt have the extra cash at the time.
