The Honda Z50A is a small motorcycle with a 49 cc (3.0 cu in) single-cylinder four-stroke overhead cam engine and a semi-automatic transmission. It was made by Honda from 1968 to 1978 and it was the second generation of the Z50 series of minibikes.[1]

The 1968-1971 Z50As were known as the "Hard Tail" because of their lack of rear shock absorbers.[1] 1968 was also called a K0,[1] a 1969-1970 is called a K1[1] and a 1970-71 are referred to as K2s.[1] Rear shock absorbers were added to the Z50A in 1972 and it was referred to as a K3.[1]
