Honda S50 information
Launched in 1965, this 5.2ps @10250rpm engine used the new overhead cam unit with a 39mm x 41.4mm bore & stroke, this ‘over-square’ design allowing higher revs, to take best advantage of the superior valve control offered by the OHC design.
A lovely looking lightweight, most often finished in bright red, enhanced by the chrome tank side panels
Weighing just 76.5kg this model was good for 55mph, and acceleration to match. As with most small sports Honda’s, rarity has pushed up values, and the relatively low cost of restoration, providing it is carried out to show room fresh standards can be very worthwhile!
