I've bought a c50 la-e

Post by bamzooki99 » Sat Dec 17, 2011 12:04 am

Hi all
I've just bought a c50 LA-E for short range commuting around town, the automatic version, B reg 1985 25.000 miles . Runner with MOT , problem with carb which will strip down and see what I can find. Main problem is the haynes manual says in the (not so) small print , 'does not cover LA automatic'. Has anyone got a suggestion where to look for specific info on what isn't covered in the haynes manual.

Aye.. At least one member here has the LA manual (sounds like how to survive in Los Angeles doesn't it !! :lol: )
Frame, cycle parts & top end of engine are the same as the normal C50.. Just the clutch / transmission are totally different.
