Description
1986 Honda Z50RD Frame no. ZH2AB0200GS1701087 With the launch of the Z100 in 1961, Honda created the class of machine known as 'monkey bikes', so called because of their diminutive stature. In 1967 Honda updated the concept, launching the Z50 (also known as the Z50M) which used a de-tuned version of the overhead-camshaft engine of the recently introduced C50 step-thru. In most other respects this new 'Monkey' remained essentially unchanged, retaining the original's rigid frame, un-sprung fork, folding handlebars and seat, and 5' diameter wheels. A telescopic front fork and 8' diameter wheels appeared on later versions (the Z50A was the first monkey bike with front suspension). For the 1986 Christmas season Honda came out with the extremely rare, all chrome, Christmas-Special Z50RD. The Christmas Special is a limited-edition model that was produced for one year only and was distributed in pairs to top Honda US dealerships. The RD is based on the Z50R, and all Christmas Special examples feature a chrome-plated finish with red, white, and blue graphics. An exciting opportunity for 'monkey' enthusiasts. This Z50RD will require recommissioning. Footnotes: Sold on Bill of Sale Lot to be sold without reserve.
