Honda P50

Motorcycles and Powered Two- and Three-Wheelers

The Honda P50, known as the P25 in some markets, was introduced in June 1966 and was the last motor-wheel moped design by Honda and probably by any other large manufacturer. It has a step-through frame made from steel pressings, leading-link front suspension, plastic fenders and a chainguard, with the fuel tank above the rear fender. The key distinguishing feature is the 49 cc engine, located at the extreme lower left rear of the frame with all of the driveline components housed within the large hub of the rear wheel. The engine is also a four-stroke, which was unusual when almost all pedal-equipped mopeds used simpler two-strokes, because Soichiro Honda disliked the sharp noise of two-strokes, and it means oil does not have to be mixed with the gasoline at every fill-up.
