Additional photos of this Honda are available here for your perusal.
The regular EZ-9 (known as the EZ-90 Cub in the US) is already interesting enough with the 2-stroke motor, enclosed bodywork, and swingarm that doubled as the rear suspension. But this JDM version has an aftermarket street legal kit and it’s adorned in a Rothmans livery that matches the iconic replica paint job that Honda applied to the NSR250!
The previous owner had two examples of the EZ-9 with scratched and faded bodywork, so he had them both painted in the Rothmans scheme you see here. We’ve acquired both, and this is the one you want because of the aftermarket street kit (headlight, mirror, turn signals, etc). It was imported from Japan with paperwork that makes it street legal in the US (in all states except California due to the Japanese 11 digit VIN). It’s currently titled in Arizona.
The Cub has a recent carb cleaning and a new battery. Mechanically, everything works except the low beam. Cosmetically, there are some scratches on the right swingarm but otherwise it’s a delightful pit bike that will get you attention everywhere you go – especially when you honk the adorable horn (listen to the horn in the video above)!
Even if you don’t already have a Rothmans NSR250 in your garage, how can you say no to this?
