1998 Jingeng Monkey, 49 cc. Registration number TBC. Frame number TBC. Engine number TBC.
Motorcycle genius Soichiro Honda`s original design, the CZ100 `Mini Bike`, still has an enthusiastic following, and an original example are highly collectable. AKA the `Monkey Bike`, by which it was and will be forever known, the first of the line had a 49cc pushrod engine, rigid forks, single seat and 5`` wheels. Soon upgraded to the CZ50M, a sort of de-luxe version, with ohc engine from the step-thru C50 and tartan twin folding seat. Next up was the Z50A which had tele forks, 8`` wheels with knobblies, high level exhaust and you could have a red, blue or yellow colour scheme. That model then morphed into the Z50AK2 which was almost exactly the same and named the `Mini-Trail`. Ironically the Far East motorcycle industry has spent the last four decades cloning Mr Honda`s designs, some official, others not, and there are many copies of the Monkey Bike available on the market today. Indeed the term has become somewhat generic now and can apply to any miniature motorcycle.
This example has hardly been used and is currently on a SORN with DVLA, the mileage is only at 24 miles and it still has the plastic on the seat.
Sold with the V5C and a new MOT.
