Honda Zoomer
Looking like nothing more than a seat and handlebars attached to a pair
of wheels, the new Zoomer’s stark minimalist design conceals a host
of technological advances that make it a quick and dependable runabout.
However, its ‘bare-bones’ construction just begs to be customised
to your own taste. Just see some examples at www.zoomerzine.co.uk.
Honda Zoomer Features
The Zoomer follows the Honda quest for economical, low-impact daily
transportation. Featuring a highly advanced, new liquid-cooled PGM-FI
(Programmed Fuel-Injection) 4-valve 4-stroke engine that sets a new standard
for environmental compatibility, the new Zoomer lives up to its name with
sprightly performance.
Beneath its remarkably comfortable contoured pad of a seat, the Zoomer
features a wide-open area above a moulded plastic pan designed to carry
just about anything that will fit in the space between the rails of its
seat sub-frame. Strategically positioned bungee hooks facilitate tying
down and securing whatever is being taken along.
Engine Features:
Lightweight 50cc 4-stroke 4-valve SOHC liquid-cooled single-cylinder engine
provides ample power for in-town riding fun.
• Innovative new PGM-FI system is the smallest Honda makes, and
the most advanced system ever developed for this displacement class, offering
responsive performance, top fuel economy, and the lowest emissions ever.
• Maintenance-free fully electronic ignition system combines with
the Zoomer’s advanced fuel injection to ensure easy starts and dependable
operation.

brushless ACG (alternator) in an innovative development that eliminates
the need for, and weight of, a separate starter motor, for startups that
are quick, reliable, and remarkably quiet.

ignition timing, alternator regulator, ACG starter, electromagnetic fuel
pump and programmed automatic idling system’s air intake control
valve.
