    Tbh the 80ccs are a bit of a rare item in the UK. But unfortunately not a good rare bike. Nothing wrong with them in terms of reliability. There is just no market for them. It can't be ridden by a 16yr old and any1 over 17 would opt for the 125. Also tuning a 50 would make It just as fast. I reckon £375 for a good one because of the reasons above

    Fleabay as you say, gumtree and bike breakers. It is essentially the same as the 50 with a bigger bore so you shouldnt struggle for parts apart from thr piston and cylinder paets maybe

    80s are just a 50 with a bigger cyl. For 50 quid you could sell it and or make it a cheap runaround
