I have owned the DA50, the BME 50, the ZDZ 50 and a 3W60. By far the easiest engine to operate was the BME 50.

Zenoah doesn't have a 50cc, do they? I think Zenoahs must be good since they have been around a long time. I voted for my Brison (2.4) though, just out of hope and opinion. I hope the Brison will be the most trouble free gasser I will ever own. So far it has been. It hasn't caused me a bit of trouble sitting on my workbench.

I assume that "Fuchi" is really "Fuji" -- They do have an interesting product.

I'd like to see RCU Magazine to a head-to-head of the 50cc gas singles. Mark, what do you think??

I don't understand it. When I tuned in there had been 564 hits on this post with only 45 votes.

I still voted for the Brisons, though. Have three of them, 2 of the 3.2's and a 6.4. Great engines! Also have an older 4.2 Sachs. That one's not so good.

Judging by the votes so far, I'm glad I bought a Brison for my first gasser!

Its amazing to me. That all the people that brag about their DA-50's aren't chiming in about how good it is. I am in the same debate as well. Looking to buy a 50CC over the winter and can't descide between, DA, Brisson, ZDZ, BME

m.gramling :

I think that the key words that buchtes used in the first post are the most meaningful.

" TROUBLE FREE "

It may not be as light as the lightest (not that its heavy), as strong as the most powerfull (not that its weak), but for the most bang for the buck and dead on reliability my vote goes to Brison. Plus, if you happen to need it, dang good service.
