Nice looking Magna there, brings back memories of me taking my uncle's out for a spin on occasion back in the days.

I had a 78 Z50 and think I had an 80 or 81 as well. They were bullet proof for sure

I'm currently restoring a '71 Honda CL70.

The 50cc and 70cc engines are still pretty much the same to this day. Usually bigger valves and 12v source now but they're the same. LOL Uses a piston smaller than my little girly hand, chain driven cam, hydraulic cam chain tensioner, oil pump (not sure on 50cc). Nothing to them really, so it needs a rebuild then simple tools can get the job done. The only special tool I've bought so far is a flywheel puller.
