1982 Honda CT50JC Motra: In the early 80s (82-83) , Honda offered what they called a “heavy duty” minibike called the Motra for the Japanese domestic market.  Unlike the Z50 or original Monkey, the Motra was designed to be loaded up with gear and ridden just about anywhere you could imagine. A commonly-shared-but-unverified tale says that “Motra” is a combination of Motorcycle-Truck because the Japanese pronunciation for truck is “Torakku” with a silent “o”. The Motra has a distinctively rugged appearance, with angular steel tube and panel framework supporting large racks fore and aft. The utility/military style is emphasized by a lack of decorative chrome, and a solid yellow or green paint scheme for all bodywork and wheels. The Motra's semi-automatic 3-speed gearbox is coupled with a second stage to provide the same 3-speeds with a lower final ratio for low-speed off-road travel in steep terrain. So according to the Honda you can climb slopes of 23 degrees in third gear. The engine block is the same as the blocks under the C50 mini's, passport, etc. There are additional "features" found on the bike indicating that the bike was made to ride in inhospitable areas. Such as the air intake at the height of the seat, adjustable rear shocks to support varying load requirements (see crank on right-side), and the left-hand grip lever serves as center kickstand lock release. This bike also has one of the rarest OEM accessories that were available at the time, a side kickstand. This little monster is also easy on the gas, because of its eco cup and small carb she is terribly efficient (110 Km per liter) or 258 Mpg. With its 5.4-inch-wide tires ideal for beach or forest, in short, the ideal recreational bike Circa 1980's by Honda. The Motra's CT50 designation is a slight exception in Honda nomenclature in that 'CT' does not indicate a mechanical family of bikes. It is distinct from the CT70, which is an ST-series bike for the US and Canadian market, and from the CT50/CT90/CT110 Trail Cubs, which are an offshoot of the Super Cub bikes. The Motra's CT50 designation is a re-use of the Trail Cub CT50 designation from 1968.

The History of Honda's Z50 Mini Trail From 1968-1999

[wetsteve3]

1958 Honda Benly JC58Compared to the Honda JC56 also on display at the National Motorcycle Museum, the newer JC58 employs a leading fork and has turn signals as mandated by Japanese law in 1958. Honda did not officially import their motorcycles to the United States until they set up on Pico Boulevard in Los Angeles in 1959, so this JC58 is probably a “domestic” Japanese model.

Immediately after World War II Soichiro Honda sought to get the Japanese people economical transportation. And Honda wanted to bring his countrymen convenience; Benly translates to “convenience” in Japanese. His first true “motorcycle” was the Model D, for Dream, of 1949, a two-stroke single of 98cc’s that used a semi-automatic two-speed transmission.  It was an advancement over the first Hondas which used a heavy weight bicycle frames and a “clip on” engine. The Model D was followed in 1953 by the first Benly, also the first Honda the factory used in competition. Thus began Honda’s long interest in racing as a means of improving the engineering of their motorcycles.

Looking back, the Dream D was introduced in 1949 and produced through 1951 and is considered to be Honda’s first true motorcycle. It was a 98cc two stroke. it had a  2 speed gearbox with a semi-automatic clutch similar to the much later C100. Mr. Honda had toured the NSU factory and carefully recorded ideas he might be able to employ in his machines. Also like some German and English motorcycles of the time, it still used reverse pivot brake and clutch levers.  A chain primary drives a three-speed rotary* gearbox; Honda always used “unit” engine/transmission construction. 

The Dream E was introduced in 1951 and was Honda’s first four stroke. It was 150cc and had a 3 speed gearbox.  There were several versions of Dream E’s with larger displacements. By this time Honda had an overhead-camshaft model in the range, the Dream SA, then the ME, so the utilitarian J-type Benlys were produced for only a few more years. Considering development and tooling costs, Honda has always had a lot of model options in their lineup, and new designs evolved quickly. Looking back it appears Mr. Honda was not averse to discontinuing a machine he found to be a less than successful design.1958-honda-benly-JC58_1

This interesting JC58 Honda is part of the Jill & John Parham Collection. When you visit the National Motorcycle Museum you can view several 1950’s era Hondas plus everything from early CB750’s, Z50 Mini-Trails and an ATC 90 three-wheeler to a CR250 Elsinore and more

Two Wheelin': Honda Monkey and Super Cub

People tend to forget that it was motorcycles, not cars, that originally brought Honda to America. Their 1960’s “you meet the nicest people on a Honda” add campaign, not only did wonders for them, but for motorcycling in general. We sent Two Wheelin’ Brian Robinson to find out if that still rings true; but as usual, we found him just monkeying around.

“Yes, it’s street legal; and yes you want one. It’s called the Monkey, and along with the Super Cub it’s a 1-2 punch of nostalgia from Honda.

It’s hard not to get emotional when you see this 2019 Honda Monkey. After all, chances are good your first exposure to motorcycling was a Honda Mini Trail that was used to terrorize your neighborhood. 

Yes, it was Honda that brought backyard motorcycling to the masses with the Z50. What we have here is not an exact copy, but the fun and friendly spirit of it lives on in the Monkey. 

And thankfully it’s not a copy, as while 125ccs is not a lot these days, it beats the Mini Trail’s 50; still just a single cylinder of course. 

There’s an additional gear in the transmission as well, now 4 speeds. 

And with nostalgia-seeking adults the intended buyers, not kids; it’s bigger as well. I wouldn’t say it’s perfect for my 6-foot frame, as I do tend to feel like the monkey here, but it works better than I thought it would. 

Top speed is around 60 miles-per-hour, so you’d be wise to avoid the interstates; but it has no problems keeping up with traffic on two lane byways and city streets. 

While we usually save pricing information for the grand finale, it’d be prudent to mention it here. Only to say that you can’t expect much in the way of a sophisticated suspension for a bike that costs $4,000. 

And indeed, if there’s a minor bump in the road, chances are it’ll soak it up; anything more, you’re on your own. Keep your eyes on the road and plan accordingly.  

There is a nice digital gauge display with speedometer and fuel gauge, and LED lighting to reinforce the fact that this Monkey is inspired by the Z50, not a rebirth of it.

But, much like the original Mini Trail, the Honda Monkey is the perfect gateway drug to quickly get you addicted to the thrills and freedom that motorcycling provides. The only problem I had? Fighting the urge to cut through everyone’s backyard on the way home from work every day.   

Now, your chances of actually meeting one of those nice people on a Honda, is much better with this Super Cub 125. It is also inspired by, but not a direct copy of the Super Cub or CA100 that took California by storm in the 60s; while also showing up in Life magazine and Beach Boys songs. 

While it disappeared from our market in the mid-70s, some version of the Super Cub has been sold in other parts of the world ever since. 

Now, it returns here as the C125; featuring the same 125cc single cylinder engine as the Monkey. 

Even more modern than the Monkey, here you get keyless ignition; and a trick clutchless manual 4-speed transmission. 

It feels much different to ride too, thanks to its 17-inch wheels and skinny 90-series tires. 

And Price. It’s even cheaper than the Monkey, starting at just $3,599. 

All told, these are two tiny Hondas that have big appeal, whether you’re old enough to remember the originals or not.
