As a current owner and restorer of an FZ50 (kind of a brother to FA50), I would keep that bike for parts and find another one that’s complete to fix up. A few good recommendations here, but the supply of Suzuki parts is not as good as a bunch of sources make it look. The retailers get their stock mostly from Suzuki and a lot of parts are no longer available from Suzuki. Partzilla.com is fairly reliable—check to see if they actually HAVE the parts, not just list them—two different things. There is some crossover between the Suzukis, but some big differences too. Ads here on MA work well, but hard to say if people have what you need. My guess is the market where you are is easy to determine—watch FB Marketplace for nopeds. I think it’s rare to see a noped sell for over $700. Here in FL, they are scooters and need titles, so check into that too. I have some spares that might help if you decide to fix this bike, though—a carburetor for FA50 that won’t fit an FZ50
