seriously, the orange shocks appear to be Boge Mulholland Gas Interpart's and the exhaust looks to be a Bassani but yup..could be DG as I've nor enough experience with MR50's ;)

 :D Ha,yeah yer right Doc,not even I've seen those bikes for a while.The red one up the end hasn't seen sun for a long time,shes a shed dweller.
I only meant to download the DG MR50 info,to see if anyone had seen that before,not me whole photo bucket account.
Lucky I haven't had the time to upload rude pics onto photo bucket yet! :o



                                                   Cheers,Mark.

Pipe looks like my DG.

Remember seeing those DG MR50's in American Motocross Action or Dirt Bike magazines in the 70's. There was also an article of an MR with an Elsinore 125 motor in it. Anyone remember that?

I vividly remember at CD5 KB had a picture of an MR50 he has hanging on his wall at home, it is THE coolest little MR50 Elsinore I'd ever seen and KB if you read this, can we see it again please 8)

Well some one is laughing for $ 250 with pipe and head ,finding parts is feast or famine but that half the fun isn't it.Im using mullhollands from a rm50 for mine.Any one know of a hot up carby for them our a spare std one for sale.The DG look is certainly aggresive,although i hope they braced the frame back bone to stop it folding out.Although KBs mr at cd4 was simply stunning in the flesh it looked like it was done by the factory.Hope to use mine as pit bike at cd7.
