Next page : Eddie McDonnell’s notes on the handling of his V50 Phasar followed by Monty’s reply
Previous page : Monty’s V50 Phasar Return to Monty’s index page
Eddie’s was bought as a roofed mini Quasar, in yellow, photo shows modifications envisaged at the time
With special thanks to his wife for all the years she never saw him while he slaved over a hot soldering iron and hack saw in the garage !

As bought, with roof removed |
|
Body work off to show frame, notice totally different front end from Monty’s V50, this uses dual shocks and steering head is not in the petrol tank, petrol tank goes above rear wheel. |
|
As first rebuilt by Eddie, no rear fairing. Pictured with VT 500 outside Monty’s house at an FF gathering. |
|
Second rebuild, now with rear body work and pillion seat.
On holiday in the Isle of Man |
|
Trial use of full rear body work, not pursued |
