The Honda CHF50 was known by many names across the world depending on the market: Jazz, Crea, Scoopy, and in the US – Metropolitan. The US first got it in 2002 and it’s been a popular option that’s still offered today.
Honda calls it “the European-style scooter engineered to embody American practicality,” with a 4.9 horsepower 50cc that returned over 90 miles per gallon. Wet weight was just 176 pounds.
Manufactured in February of 2006, this example is VIN: JH2AF60036K402900.
The odometer shows 1,539 miles.
Our friend Kevin Erion was given this as part of a package of scooters by Honda to use as pit bikes during AMA racing. It was last used in this capacity in 2011.
