Overview

The Honda NSC 50R is a scooter produced from 2013 to 2016. The 2016 model uses a 49.0 cm³, single-cylinder, four-stroke engine producing 3.5 hp (2.6 kW) and 3.5 Nm of torque at 7,000 rpm; its wet weight is 105.0 kg.

The 760 mm seat height gives riders a relatively low perch, while the 105 kg wet weight helps keep parking-speed maneuvering manageable. Its automatic transmission removes manual gear changes, and fuel consumption of 2.00 liters/100 km pairs with the 5.50-liter tank for a calculated range of about 275 km; the 45.0 km/h top speed suits slower routes. Fuel consumption changed from 1.70 liters/100 km in 2014 to 2.00 liters/100 km in 2015.

Pros and cons

Advantages

Easy parking-speed handling
At 105 kg wet, the scooter is manageable to maneuver at low speeds.
Simple automatic operation
The automatic transmission means there are no manual gear changes to make.
Low fuel use
Consumption of 2.00 liters/100 km gives it a calculated full-tank range of about 275 km.

Things to consider

Limited top speed
The 45.0 km/h top speed confines it to slower routes.
Limited clearance
The 120 mm ground clearance leaves less room when crossing raised obstacles.

Estimated ground reach

Both feet likely flat

You should have a stable stance at a stop, although seat width and suspension setup still matter.
