It is what it says it is. Its a Honda Mini 50, or a Trail 50. We always called it a Trail 50. I think it was actually called a Z50A or something like that. They were faster than the old minibikes. They has an auto shift like a 3 wheeler. There were several versions of them. there were 50's, 70's and 90's too I believe. The 70's and 90's were actually street legal if my memory serves me correctly.

I'd really remove those links if I were you. You never know who will snatch things from under you.

thanks for the help, what do you guys figure they would be worth? ive wanted to get one to fix up for a while

[Chazz of Blades]

the black one, if it's not spray bombed, and it runs, and looks decent I'd offer him $275, with a max of $300 and that would be a good deal if everything is ok except the seat. I think the back fender might be a bit wrong, but I'd have to see it. From the ad it sounds like the usual carb troubles.

The other one, offer him like $100 and go up from there. Max I'd pay would be about $160.

The first looks like a '73 from the tank sticker, I think Z50AK4 is the model code. All I can say on the second one is it's between 73 and 78. Pre 73's were hard tails and 79 and later had regular bars. They are high dollar little bike with correctly restored. Search "money bike" for more information.
