Smile Ec 50 / Sm 50

Hi Jeff, the motor in the Gassa is the pre 2000 Derbi unit, the first thing i noticed is no hydraulic clutch, it does make me wonder why they would of done that ( save money?), I have ridden the snot out of my wifes Ec 50 & the clutch is only now showing signs of wearing after 6 years so I wouldn't think it would be reliability issues.
The head on that motor looks identical to the Gassa so that would explain why the Malossi part nos are the same for both units.
The $300.00 us would be pretty close to what I paid for my one(converted to NEW ZEALAND dollars).
