Description
The EZ-Snow was one of the most unique variants of Honda’s Super Cub. This winter version was unveiled at the Tokyo Motor Show in October 1991 and based off the EZ-9 which Americans may know as the EZ90. The mythical EZ-Snow replaced the wheels with a steerable ski in the front and a rubber caterpillar track in the back. Depending on who you listen to, either none were officially built, Honda created some kits, or Honda made about 250-300 examples that were only sold in Japan in ’92 and ’93.
No matter which story is true, one fact is that the snow bike was never officially offered in the US, and they’re very difficult to find.
The base bike was designed to make motorcycling more user-friendly, which is why all of the mechanicals were hidden inside futuristic plastic bodywork. It was equipped with both kick and electric starts, as well as an automatic transmission that requires no clutch. A little storage cubby in the front of the bike (where the “EZ-9” logo is) added some functionality, while tricks like making the swingarm the rear suspension helped save weight.
