About this listen

 In the mid 1970s, and for just a short window in time, outrageously quick 50cc sports mopeds were the delight of many a lucky sixteen year old . In Sixteener Special S. P. Muir regales us with memories of his own experience as a novice biker on one of the best of the mopeds on the market. He tells of how in his first year on two wheels he went from a hopeless and dangerously inexperienced novice rider to a competent motorcyclist ready to step up to something more powerful.

Like the majority of sixteen-year-olds at the time, his steed of choice was a Yamaha FS1E - the legendary Fizzy. Often hunting in packs, this little flyer made the perfect machine for the novice to cut their teeth on.

So settle back in your armchair and find out what it was like to live with a sports moped - or go misty eyed with nostalgia as Muir evokes some fond memories of your own.
A great read for bikers young and old to discover - or rediscover - what it was like to own and ride one of these iconic little beasts.

For the few short years it lasted, the age of the sixteener special really was a unique and magical era in the history of motorcycling. Motorcycle
