Honda 50... but it's actually 49cc's

I've had people tell me at the track that you can get big bore kits for it to make a 70cc and 100cc out of it. Plus all other types of gizmo's like cams and what not for it... but it's gonna stay stock.

It does look like something out of a circus act when you see a 250lb+ guy riding around on it... ever see a pocket bike (mini-sportbike)? They are like half the size of what's pictured, now those are a riot to see in action! In the NX catalog there's a Suzuki GSX-R mini with a nitrous kit on it.

I've never seen any mini bikes. If u can dig up a pic for me, that would be great.

49cc? lmao...my dads chain saw has a bigger engine...

....seriously....

ultraflo · 09-03-2002, 12:16 AM

I wouldn't doubt it dude! The Z50 has a top speed of approx. 40 mph... maybe I should talk someone into letting me make a pass on the minibike? See what kinda ET and mph it puts down... any guesses?

I'll post a pic of what I was talking about earlier, the pocket bike with nitrous...

I've got a 85 Honda Foretrax 250 atv. I've rolled, jumped, drove that thing like crazy, and it's still running great.

I don't like their cars at all, but my next atv is gonna be another Honda.

The Deuce · 09-04-2002, 05:55 PM

I ride a VFR750 Honda, and I'm convinced its the best sportbike ever. Now if Ford made one, I'd give it a fair shot.

The cars I am not a fan of, but their bikes are great. Learned to ride on one, and may never ride anything else, well maybe a Harley.

i used to have an old 89 honda elite e 50 moped, that thing was so slow that when i raced old people on bicycles i'd get my *** whooped, from start to finish, i just wanted to put some racing fuel in it so baaad, but never did and just sold it... the end

How many other of u own a honda product? I have a Honda 3-wheeler.

WTF are you talking about?

Just because Hondas make non-performance cars that aren't quick from the factory, doesn't mean they suck. They are extremely well made, high quality and reliable. Actually, if you have the money to do it, those little crapboxes also do respond to heavy modifications (although they still sound like a tin can

) Honda also make sickeningly fast motorcycles.

So, Honda doesn't really "suck" in any area. In fact, I think the only thing that sucks in this thread is the lynch mob ignorance toward any automobile made overseas. Just because some lame kids ruin their reliable econobox with ricer stuff doesn't mean the entire brand/model sucks.

The only thing worse than a ricer is a blind "import-phobe".

I was gonna say the same thing but here lately every time I get into a friendly debate it goes horribly wrong some how

My Honda CRX has been good to me, it isnt fast but is is reliable as hell and that is why I bought a Honda.

JMO,
