Two Honda CB50R’s: One 0 Mile, One Built To Race
The munchkin bikes continue to appear for sale. Here are two more that are looking for new homes. These things are growing on me and while looking around the web I came across HRC’s webpage for the bike. Here is some tech talk on the engine:
the Dream 50 engine assembled with camshafts, valve springs, piston, designed exclusively for the Dream 50 race kits, and low-friction cam chains, crankshaft, and light-weight AC generator which are newly designed for the Dream 50R. The carburetor and air funnels are designed exclusively for competition use, all of which contribute to developing 51.4kw (7ps) at 13500rpm. The transmission comes equipped with 6-speed close-ratio gears.
Maybe best of all there is a little race kit for the bike. Highlights include a kit CDI and hand bent exhaust pipe. Check all of it out on HRC’s website.
Here is what the seller has to say on the 0 mile bike:
For sale is a one of a kind hard to find 2004 honda CB50R limited production. this is new never started and it’s been kept in my showroom since the day i GOT it from the dealer. this is A collector’s edition. Probably fun to ride With! but for sure enjoying to look at. it looks awesome in the picture as you can see and it is way better looking in person. i really hate to sell this awesome bike but it was a long thinking and decision which i have to make….so finally here! there you have it! i’m ready to pass it on. this bike does not have a single scratch. it is in mint excellent perfect showroom condition. if you have any question or needs some more info about this bike, pls feel free to ask any questions and i will answer them as quick and as prompt as possible… thanks for looking! Goodluck!
The seller is asking $6,500 for the bike. The bikes had a MSRP of $5,500 back in 2004. Even with 0 miles on the odometer my guess is the bike might not get many bites at that price. .
Now maybe a 0 mile bike isn’t your cup of tea and you are looking to stretch your little CB50R’s legs. Well maybe this is the one for you. Of all things, this one is prepared for Bonneville.
Check it out:
Prepared for Bonneville a Honda CB50 (the Honda factory clone), new engine modified for record attempt, partial streamlined bodywork, surely a potential record holder in it’s class, not for street use, repeat, not for street use. Will not ship, you must pick up, bike has only been started at engine builders.
This one is intriguing to me. The fun factor goes up knowing it has had a little engine work. The owner does not state any mileage and is asking $5,500. It might be worth a call and maybe is a way into the Bonneville record books! Or just a slow trip across a hot, dry lake bed. Check this Dream 50 out here.
