      its a real shame none of the big motorcycle companies want to help out with the renovation . People like yourself are the only reason they're old gems and still around and looking as badass as they do (on a large scale to ) I hope to come to America one day just to visit the kaplan compound in you guys /girls are the reason ive started getting back into motorcross bikes since i had a bad back accident so thank you one love from the south wales uk GOD BLESS AMERICA

      I had an 1978 Honda "monkey" (same bike but that's what they are called in Finland) it automatic clutch. 3 speed. Neutral was lowest and three up. It was my first moped. It was all original and I drove it every day when I had any free time. Super fun for a 10 year old. I sold it few years after owning it for maybe about 50 euros cause I wanted a Suzuki 50cc that I tuned to go fast. The worst sale ever! They sale about 3500€ in Finland now 😏
      You have a classic in your hands! There is a dealer maybe mile away from where I live that has tens of old Honda 50cc's.

    My neighbor at the lake had a 1982 Honda Z50 when we were kids. It was an absolute bullet proof bike. So easy to ride, a little 3 speed automatic that would always start first kick. Tons of good memories. I have never seen or heard of a Christmas Special. No doubt they would be super rare!

      Haha yeah a kid down the street from me had a blue one when I was a kid. It was the greatest thing I in the world. I just learned how to ride a bike, I was really young. I'd stare out my window every day and wait for their garage door to open and I'd hop on my bike and go down there hoping to be able to ride it 😆 My dad finally got me a little minibike that I loved the hell out of.

    Any rider from the early seventies on that doesn't have a story or a place in their heart for the Honda Mini Trail 50 or 70 just wasn't raised right . I asked my Dad for one of these when my cousin got one and got the " we"ll see son " . Which
    meant good luck with that short stuff . Five years later I bought a Suzuki 185 myself but Dad did buy me a helmet and gave me a ride to Derby Town Suzuki in Louisville Kentucky . My little brother got a new a new YZ 80 a few weeks later . But that's another story . The Honda Mini Trail 50 is an awesome little bike and that motor is Hondas number one seller.of all time from what I've heard . PK
