    both bikes would be ok.it really comes down to preference,a four or a twin?both are short stroke,(meaning high revving)four strokes.top speeds about the same,real world handing also.economy i believe is similar too on both.spares shouldn't be an issue as plenty of both have been sold.

    restrictors on a kawasaki ar50?

    i believe that the ar50 like other 50cc of that era,were built restricted for certain markets,just like the mt/mb 50 Honda's.it Sounds to me that you've basically turned your ar50,into an ar80 so apart from changing the gearing and exhaust,i think that's about it
