1976 Honda PC50 Moped
Registration no. GDR 227N
Frame no. 2094501
Engine no. 09120

Built initially with an overhead-camshaft engine but subsequently with an OHV type, Honda's PC50 arrived in 1969. A simple to use, 'twist-'n-go' model with single gear and automatic clutch, the economical PC50 was soon almost as common a sight on UK streets as the ubiquitous C100 Super Cub.

This PC50 was purchased new by her husband for its first lady owner, who never road it! Kept in storage, its registration passing from mother to daughter, the machine has covered a mere 11 miles from new. In July 2016, Dream Machine Motorcycles of Modbury sold the Honda to the current vendor, a well-known West Country dealership where it has since formed part of their collection of 'display motorcycles'. All oils have been drained, and re-commissioning will be required before the machine returns to the road. Offered with the 2016 sales invoice, a V5C and keys.
