But the one problem is easily fixed before it causes major damage and big $. Yes I am defending the M with it's factory glitch because it isn't a big deal in my mind. The S-50 with carbs and different pipes is a neat looking bike with the least weight of the 50 series so it should be the most fun to tear around on. The M is also apparently the best handling of the 50's due to it's different forks. Lynda drags hard parts in the twisties now and again as it seems to corner like it is on rails. Any of the 50's are a good bang for the buck while being virtually bullet proof. My choice of the 50's would be the Canadian Special Edition C-50. It is just a bit nicer than the rest of the family.
