Successor to Honda's first 50cc two-stroke sports moped, the MB50, the MBX50 was produced in restricted 'Sixteener Special' form for the UK market, with an air-cooled engine producing 2. 5bhp and five speeds in the gearbox, and was the first '50' to incorporate an engine balancer shaft. (Unrestricted models were water-cooled and produced 7. 2bhp).
Purchased by the current private vendor from the Bonhams Winter Online Sale 2023 (Lot 104), they have kept it part of their private collection and have other projects to attend to first, therefore now being sold. Offered for restoration and sold strictly as viewed, the odometer reading is 7, 737 miles and is offered with a current V5C.
£500 - 800
