Suzuki PV50 EPO

I have tried to put some Suzuki PV50 EPO info on this page. I would be grateful of any contributions — sales brochures, magazine ads, magazine articles, pictures, specs, facts, corrections etc. Please scan the material in JPEG format (large enough that all the details are visible) and send them to me. Please tell me the source and the publication date if possible. If you send me pictures of your own bike, please follow these instructions.

I do not know that much of the model. I have found it much easier to find information about the Finnish version of the PV50; it was introduced to the Finnish market in 1981, under the name Solifer-Suzuki. All I can put on this page is the pictures and facts I have found on some Japanese sites. I think the 50 cc mini bike was introduced to the Japanese home market in 1979.
