The Suzuki Motor Co. was established in 1909 by Michio Suzuki to produce machinery for the cotton industry. An initial diversification into 4-wheeled transport was curtailed by WW2, but after the war Japan had a need for cheap reliable transport so Suzuki, like a lot of others around the world, began to produce clip-on engines for pushbikes. These proved to be an immediate success and soon they were making full motorcycles and by the early 60s were second only to Honda in number of two-wheelers manufactured. The FZ50 was Suzuki's first fully automatic moped with a two-speed auto gearbox, leading link forks and alloy spoked wheels providing a lightweight moped that could be ridden by car licence holders and 16-year-olds.

This 1980 FZ50, being offered at no reserve, has been part of a private collection for a number of years, but is now being moved-on to make way for other projects. Not run for a while, it will need recommissioning, but once up and running it will make an ideal retro paddock bike or a lightweight moped to carry around in a motorhome. The bike comes supplied with a new old stock leg shield and a current V5C.
