Honda Other description

Up for your consideration is a 1969 K1 Candy Ruby Red MiniTrail Z50A in excellent unrestored original condition.

Frame: Z50A-151647
Engine: Z50AE-151275

This is an Arizona bike that has been in storage a long time.  I found it here in Tucson, AZ.  I put oil and gas in it and it fired right up.  It runs great, shifts great, does not smoke or leak.  It’s a very nice Z50.  This is my favorite year for the Z50.  The 1969 K1 Z50 is the second model iteration and has the small fender in the rear, lights and a battery, no right side foot brake lever and is still the classic “hard-tail.”  They have the cleanest lines and are super cute.

This is about as nice as you can expect to find in unrestored condition for a Z50.  This is everything I look for in a minitrail.  It’s a silver tag bike which is neat.  The big number 8’s on the fasteners, the correct and original split-seam seat, Nitto Tires, straight handlebars, original ignition key, correct tail light lens, and everything in place and working.  The battery is currently out and will be included with the sale. It was removed for storage and I have not re-installed it.  

The appearance is excellent for an unrestored minitrail.  It has zero corrosion on the chrome.  There is no pitting anywhere on the bike.   It has very light surface hazing on the aluminum on the engine but I would consider all the metal surfaces in excellent condition for an original bike.  This is proof it has been in a dry climate.  I don’t usually see CT’s or Z50’s this clean.

I know shipping is a concern for many people.  I have a motorcycle shipper that I can put you in contact with.  He has coordinated shipping for me a number of times at reasonable prices.  Some patience on timing is required depending on where you live.  The bikes are shipped complete with a motorcycle transporter and arrive COD.

Please reply with any questions and I will contact you as soon as possible.

Thanks for your interest!

FIM to Revise WSBK Homologation Requirements

Fri, 17 Jan 2014

The International Motorcycling Federation is considering modifying its homologation requirements for the World Superbike Championship following Bimota‘s somewhat surprising plans to re-enter the series. Under current regulations, manufacturers must produce a minimum number of motorcycles for it to be eligible to compete in the production-based WSBK championship. The official regulations currently require a minimum of 125 units produced for an initial homologation inspection, 500 units produced by June 30 of the current year, 1,000 units by the end of the current year and 2,000 units by the end of the following year.

Tue, 15 May 2012

Remember the Honda U3-X? Unveiled in 2009, the U3-X was Honda‘s personal mobility device concept, essentially a self-balancing electronic unicycle that can move in any direction by simply leaning. Honda has created an updated version it calls the UNI-CUB.
