Was the Honda SS50 really the 2nd most popular? In my Fizzy days (when the unrestricted ones were all at least 2 years old), people seemed to go for FS1Es or Suzuki AP50s. FS1Es seemed more numerous, with a smaller number of AP50s (which seemed slightly faster, but more fragile), and very few 4-stroke Hondas. Maybe those of us who counted the days until we could get a bigger bike preferred the more entertaining 2-strokes, whereas sensible commuter-types went 4-stroke. -- TimS00 (talk) 19:28, 30 August 2011 (UTC)

Up Against the Wall, by the Tom Robinson Band
"The FS1-E is referred to in the 1978 song, Up Against the Wall, by the Tom Robinson Band." deleted by me. See WP:TRIVIA and WP:WPACT (WP:WPACT is much too strict and should be ignored, but there is is). The lyric is "Teenage guerrillas on the tarmac/ Fighting in the middle of the road/ Supercharged FS1Es on the asphalt/ The kids are coming in from the cold". All I would ask for is some 3rd party source that meets WP:RS which tells us that this mention matters in some way to somebody. Just being referred to in a song or book or movie isn't encyclopedic. --Dennis Bratland (talk) 19:27, 9 May 2012 (UTC)
