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!

Stocking filler suggestion: 3

Fri, 10 Dec 2010

Before going out on my high-powered motorcycle I always like to make sure that I'm wearing clean boxers with good elastic. Having once been admitted to A&E in a tatty pair of shreddies that weren't only on inside out (improved mileage) but were also on back to front (got dressed in the dark) and - if that wasn't already embarrassing enough - the elastic in the waistband had gone, too. Deep shame.To avoid any similar thunder-pant faux-pas, Red Torpedo have decided to run a Christmas offer so that everyone can get a pair of funky Crawford pants in a tin to put in their stocking as well as a "pick your own" brand new PRIMO quality t-shirt all for £25 - a festive saving of ten, whole English pounds.

MotoGP to Hold Official Test in Argentina; South American Nation Returning to Calendar for 2014

Thu, 11 Apr 2013

Dorna Sports announced there will be a MotoGP test at Argentina’s Circuito Internacional Termas de Rio Hondo in July to allow teams to prepare for the track’s expected addition to the 2014 MotoGP calendar. Argentina was actually supposed to join the MotoGP tour this season, but the round was scrapped because of a dispute between the country and Spain after the Argentine government seized control of a Repsol subsidiary. Repsol is, of course, a prominent sponsor of several teams including Honda‘s factory team.

2012 Honda Gold Wing Tour: Day 2

Wed, 18 May 2011

Yesterday we told you about a cool ride we’d be taking on the revised 2012 Honda Gold Wing. Our journey began in Lorton, Virginia and included a long stretch of the famous Blue Ridge Parkway. For those who have never visited the BRP, you’re missing a truly fantastic road, rising and falling among gentle mountains packed with foliage.
