Honda Zoomer AF-58: Japanese SUV scooter (new)

Honda Zoomer is a line of youth scooters from Japan with a very non-trivial design in the style of Mad Max. Mopeds are not designed for off-road travel, long distances and transportation of heavy luggage. More precisely, a scooter can easily drive for a long time, but the driver will quickly get tired. Replacing the seat will correct the situation. Cargo can also be transported, but to do this you will have to modify the fastening system and install a trunk. Fortunately, the design of the moped is “naked” - there is no plastic body kit, access to all components is open. You can tune the Buzzer as you please, changing the appearance and characteristics at your discretion.

Model history

Honda Zummer is produced at the Japanese Kumamoto plant. The developers’ idea was simple: to offer young people a kind of “construction set” – a scooter that can be modified to suit themselves. In fact, only the base was made, without any decorations, although it can be used in this form: even without tuning, the Zoomer is a lively and playful vehicle.

The ancestor of the line was the Honda Zummer 50 AF 58, which was released back in the mid-1990s. The first modification of the scooter was proposed by manufacturers in 2002 - it became the Honda Zoomer NPS50. The model turned out to be incredibly popular not only in Asia, but also in the USA, Canada, and Europe - it was able to remove Fuji Rabbit and Mitsubishi Silver Pigeon from the leadership pedestal. In the CIS countries, Buzzers appeared later - around 2007.

Appearance

The main difference between the Honda Zoomer and other scooters is its design and non-standard frame design. At first glance, you will notice that the scooter is almost completely free of plastic panels and fairings.

The almost “naked” frame allows you to operate the zoomer in the most difficult conditions without fear of damaging it. However, there are places where plastic parts still remain. They bury the battery and electronics from external conditions, which are located under the steering wheel. Another distinctive detail of the “Zoomer” is the double round headlights, headlights and completely empty space under the seat, under which not only a standard helmet can be placed, but also a long load. As for the engine compartment, it is securely hidden from prying eyes with a plastic cover. Also a noticeable element of the scooter are its unusually large wheels, which have increased grip and allow it to move confidently even on dirt roads. Overall, the scooter has a brutal, but at the same time modern look, making it difficult for it to go unnoticed.

Honda Zoomer 50 AF 58

Honda Zummer AF58 is the base model of the line. The design is as simple as possible due to the complete absence of plastic body kits. The abundance of chopped and cut edges makes Buzzer aggressive and gives it a masculine character. The wheels are a standard 12-inch, but they appear larger due to the high-profile tubeless tires and inverted hydraulic fork front suspension.

Honda

Did you give Africa for service and get this motorcycle in return? rollerball? In short, when I approached it, the seller laughed when he saw my long face)) Well, there’s nothing to do, I’ll ride it for two days. An adventure scooter, as Honda positions it.

From the first moment there is no understanding. The lack of a foot brake gave rise to a whole scene among the staff when I asked where the rear brake is on the steering wheel - on the right or on the left? We started pressing on the hands and found out that it was on the left. The scooter is quite tall and wide, requiring long legs to reach the ground. I could only reach the ground with one foot, and due to the width of the moto/stands, my foot went to the side. In short, it was unpleasant for me.

You approach it like a motor scooter, try to move your leg over the high middle part and realize that it won’t work. Once I managed to move my leg there, then the problem was landing on the other side, because, as I already said, it’s wide and my legs are awkward... In general, you have to climb like on a motorcycle, which is also not very convenient. In general, this was a complete disappointment for me.

I sat down, wiggled my butt—the seat seemed okay, but after two days I still couldn’t find a comfortable body position for myself. The legs were stretched forward on the stands, they also stood wide, the body sat somehow awkwardly, he was constantly fidgeting, looking for something more comfortable. The tidy is overloaded with all sorts of information in small print, among which it is difficult to isolate what you need. In general, so-so, I remembered where the speed was, and didn’t care about the rest. The steering wheel is wide, apparently made taking into account the fact that the scooter should also go off-road (hahaha).

Just like in an advertisement, but we know that even if we manage to fly so beautifully in front of the photographer, it will only be very short before a beautiful fall.)))

Comfort is excellent. Due to the fairly long suspension (150mm front/rear), it absorbs bumps well and does not shake at all. All the same, it seems to have been made for off-road driving. The wind deflector has 5 height positions - a cool thing, I really liked it. At the highest position you can follow him quite calmly.

The sound is very quiet, a pleasant muttering. But not squeaky, small-sized, but slightly bassy. He seems to make it clear - there are 750 cubic meters under the seat, two water-cooled cylinders, 55 horses / 68 Nm - I can show what I’m capable of. And he showed))) The acceleration is good, the road holding is excellent, the gearbox - the well-known Honda DCT - works perfectly, both in automatic mode and in manual mode. In turns it goes as if on rails, shifts as they say with an effort of thought. I drove on the autobahn at a speed of 150 km/h - zeeer gut))) In general, everything is super here, I was very pleased. The only inconvenience is the rear brake. I always have to remind myself that the brake is on the left of the steering wheel. And there’s no need to fidget with your right foot on the stand in search of the brake foot. As well as in search of running boards. By the second day I got used to it a little, and it started to work out better. And then you pull away from a traffic light and start fumbling with your feet on the sides. From the outside it probably looked like I was sitting on a scooter and wanted to run))

The scooter is heavy - 238 kilograms, if it starts to fall over at a stop, it’s hard to hold it. What else did you like? - The glove compartment is under the seat)) Like in the NTs750, it’s quite large, a lot can be stuffed in there. Closing and opening are electric, using a joystick on the panel.

The lid of the tank between the legs is opened by him. The tank is 13 liters, the consumption is low. In two days I covered 120 km and filled up with 5 liters.

By the way, it doesn’t need a key - Keyless System. The transponder is simply in your pocket, you approach, the moto recognizes you, and then by turning the knob you move the ignition switch to the desired position. What happens if the battery runs out at an unnecessary moment? - No idea, I’ll probably have to call a tow truck.

What else? Oh yes - appearance. It looks cool, many people look at it, but they hardly ever see it on the road. This type of sporty and fast silhouette, with motorcycle elements, hand protection, 17/15 Zoll spoked wheels. Many people come up and ask, “How’s it going?” What about off-road?” Moreover, people who are asking are quite mature, 50-70 years old. I always asked them, “Do you really drive off-road???” Ahhh, I just remembered))) As everyone knows, motorcyclists do not welcome scooterists and vice versa. Everything looks very interesting here. When you look at it from the front, it’s like a motorcycle, a little low, but a motorcycle. And on the side - I don’t know what. Either a big scooter or a motorcycle. And so you’re driving along the road slowly, a motorcyclist comes towards you, notices you, begins to raise his hand, then he sees that this is some kind of misunderstanding on wheels, you see his confusion, his hand trembled and went down)))) In short, it’s cool. I didn’t go off-road, but there is a button on the panel to turn off traction control and G-Modus for off-roading, just like in Africa. In general, it was difficult for me to imagine it off-road. In general, this moment remained incomprehensible to me, as it always seemed like the machinations of managers trying to push through the impossible. Well, the price is the icing on the cake. For this 2021 device, the store wants 11,500 euros. In my opinion the price is too high for it. Yes - unusual. Yes, off-road, fun, wind of freedom, drift and all that. Yes - automatic transmission. But still this is not a motorcycle. Let’s say for 8 thousand, it would probably be a sell-out, but otherwise it’s a beautiful, expensive toy known to few people.

The last photo was honestly stolen from the network.)) Beaver everyone and good luck on the roads!

Honda Zoomer 150

The design remains the same, with the exception of the seat - it has become a two-seater seat (although the seating position between the driver and passenger is too cramped and not very comfortable). The main changes primarily affected the power plant. If the base model had the AF69E with the PGM-FI system, then in the Honda Zoomer 150 we already see the Chinese 139QMB engine. A number of works were carried out on the device to replace parts of components and assemblies in order to increase the engine capacity from 50 to 150 cubic meters. see. The power of the electric scooter has increased from 8 to 11 horses.

Honda Zoomer (Ruckus) from LowRuckus Custom Moscow

First of all, I want to say thank you to Philip for the fact that such a wonderful motor resource has finally appeared, which does not look like a dinosaur of the early 21st century, but a completely modern product without “attacks”, with a beautiful layout, constant updates and detailed answers to the questions I ask in private messages. A good thing, in general.

I remember the Internet from hissing modems and busy phones, and I remember well its evolution from the romantic to the political, but at some point I was simply tired of these crests, revelations, endless trolling, paranoia with jeans and advertising, stupid copying of foreign materials, I even There is an expression: “today on a bored panda tomorrow on a thieving adme.” At some point I realized that there was no need to waste time, rubbing my fingers on the keyboard, creating nothing and leaving nothing behind. (pretentious kid, but oh well)


A couple of years ago I became interested in photography, at first it turned out mediocre, then a little better, at the moment it’s satisfactory. Since I myself am a motorcyclist with considerable experience, the genre in which I “work” suggested itself. After traveling a bit around competitions and events, I realized that the most interesting thing for me was taking photos of custom motorcycles and unusual equipment.


Why am I doing this? It's simple, I like how someone likes fishing, football, BDSM and stuff like that. That is, this is my hobby, which does not bring money, and sometimes, as in this shooting, I also had to pay an additional 2,500 rubles to the Moscow data center for an incorrectly parked car. — masharo. At this stage of development of our custom culture, most workshops don’t even think about promoting their projects and ideas, believing that it’s enough to film it a couple of times on a mobile phone and post it on your VKontakte page and the client will fall away. It doesn't work, to be honest. That’s why there are a lot of foreign projects on the Internet, but ours are like crazy (well, you understand what the word should have been here). It's a shame for the country. Actually, for this reason I write or meet guys from workshops at exhibitions and agree to shoot the highest quality projects.


Why am I filming like this? I think that a motorcycle should ride, and personally, for me, a dynamic shot with the presence of a person is much more interesting than banal pictures against the backdrop of a wall or a garage with an indispensable capture of every screw. Again, I’m not against such photos, but this can be found from several dozen photographers who photograph motorcycles, Google will help.


Like any creative person, I want to receive feedback from my activities, that is, to show the result of the action, a kind of vanity inherent in bloggers. We won’t lie, everyone who writes here wants to share their thoughts with the public, and does not use social networks as personal diaries.


And here the most important question arises: “Bolodya, why are you posting the last 6 pictures and not telling anything about these mopeds?” As I said above, the problem is with marketing. It’s just that the guys didn’t send any text other than a table with performance characteristics and a list of alterations. I simply can’t come up with a beautiful story about the creation, and I can’t give a value judgment either, because I rode one of these mopeds for as much as 400 meters and didn’t even understand how to turn it.


It looks fashionable, stylish, youthful and quite unusual. People in cars and pedestrians are really breaking their necks. Despite the completely destroyed scooter sector in Moscow, the guys continue to ride them.

Honda Zoomer X 110/150

The Honda scooter Zummer X 110/150 has been produced since 2012 at Honda factories located in Thailand. Comparing this moped with its predecessors, it becomes noticeable that it was made a little more compact. The length has shrunk by 2 cm compared to the base model, the width has shrunk by 3 cm, and the height has decreased by 2.5 cm. The seat is for two, but it’s still more comfortable to ride without a passenger. The brake system has changed. In the Zummer X 110 and X 150 the rear brake is not drum, but hydraulic. Inside there is a modified 139QMB engine with a displacement of 108 and 149 cubic meters.

Honda Zoomer NP S50

The Honda Zoomer NPS 50 scooter (aka Honda Ruckus) is a modification that was made for American and Canadian consumers. It is made at the Honda Motor Co. plant in California. Frame, brakes, CVT, suspension - everything is similar to the AF-58. Changes are in the power plant. This model has a two-valve, four-stroke engine AF55-E (aka JBH-AF58). For delivery to Europe, scooters are equipped with a four-valve AF69 engine with a PGM-F1 injector.

Honda Zoomer AF-58: Japanese SUV scooter (new)

Our online store offers to buy Japanese Honda Zoomer scooters, both new and used (with mileage). To order delivery of a new scooter from Japan (if one is not in stock), you will need to make an advance payment in the amount of 50% of the cost of the equipment indicated on the store window, and expect delivery within one month. Equipment from Japan is guaranteed for 1 year or 5000 km. We also provide service and repair of Japanese scooters.

Honda Zoomer AF-58 is a unique model of a Japanese off-road scooter with a four-stroke, single-cylinder gasoline engine of 50 cm³. A single-seater all-terrain scooter, capable of easily accelerating to a maximum speed of 60 km/h, was developed by Japanese engineers, primarily with an eye to increased demand among modern youth, but in the end it gained, without exaggeration, great popularity among the adult population of the Planet.

Initially, in Russia, the popularization of this off-road scooter occurred in villages and villages, which often have to travel along broken country roads and forest paths, including among Russian summer residents. And then the Honda Zoomer AF58 will also appeal to city residents. The brutal but stylish design provides unlimited possibilities for individual tuning and customization, numerous examples of which can be seen in photos and videos on the Internet.

The closest and cheapest analogue of the Honda Zoomer AF58 is the Chinese off-road scooter Jialing JL50 QT-16. On the crest of a wave of commercial boom, the Chinese tried to snatch their piece of financial gain from the Japanese. However, the quality of motorcycles produced in the Middle Kingdom is objectively lower than the Japanese, so the Chinese “Jialing”, despite the fact that consumers paid attention to it, could not become as fashionable and sold as the Japanese “Zoomer”.

Production of the Honda Zoomer AF-58 began in Japan back in 2002, but even today this “fifty-kopeck scooter” is one of the most high-tech among scooters with an engine capacity of 50 cm³. For example, large off-road wheels and a liquid-cooled injection engine are installed on the lightweight and durable aluminum frame of the Honda Zoomer AF-58. For its size, the scooter is light in weight (87 kg), and the manufacturer is forced to limit the maximum speed electronically.

Few people can afford to buy a Japanese off-road scooter, the Honda Zoomer. The price of the new model (without mileage), relative to ordinary versions, is quite high. But this modification is a status modification, emphasizing the extraordinary taste, social status and independent character of its owner. On such a scooter you can appear at a fashionable get-together in a club of scooter lovers, and take part in cross-country races on equal terms with other fans of two-wheeled motor vehicles.

Analogs

Buzzers have many replicas and clones that completely replicate the design and construction, but are made from cheaper parts (and therefore less durable and durable). The closest to the Zoomer AF 58 model are the Chinese Forsage Martian and Patron Robot C. Among the advantages of these mopeds, it is worth noting the steel frame rather than aluminum. It is more durable, and in an accident it does not crumble, but bends, which can be easily adjusted. In addition, the Martian has more clearance, so it is more suitable for off-road extreme sports.

An analogue of the Japanese “zoom” Honda NPS Zoomer is VENTO NAKED. It has a 150 cc four-stroke engine. The brake system is combined (discs at the front, drums at the rear).

By the way, Honda produces scooters with cladding, which were built on the basis of the Zummers, but “packed” in beautiful plastic and equipped with various accessories for a more comfortable ride (comfortable seats, functional dashboard, luggage compartments, etc.). Such models are Honda Jazz, Scoopy, Metropolitan, Crea Scoopy.

Maintenance and repair manual

The scooter requires regular maintenance, which avoids problems with the operation of internal components. Mandatory procedures include:

  • Change the oil every 5,000 km (which is convenient, after passing this mark the red light on the dashboard starts blinking). You need to fill the buzzers with SAE 10W-40 or 10w-30 (with a simple replacement, 0.6 liters is enough, after disassembling the engine - 0.7).
  • Replace the coolant every 3000 km.
  • Tire replacement. At Honda factories they install Kenda K761. These durable Japanese tires can withstand intense driving and are designed for approximately 10,000 km (when driving on bad roads, the figure is reduced by 2 times). When replacing, you can use any tires of a suitable size for the Buzzer.
  • Checking valves. The inlet should have a gap of 0.1 mm, the outlet - 0.19 mm. The error allowed is 0.03 mm. It is recommended to check the valves once a season.
  • Adjust the idle speed of the carburetor (Keihin is installed on the Buzzers). There is no need to adjust the quality of the mixture - everything is done at the factory (therefore, the head of the bolt does not imply its constant unscrewing).
  • Check spark plugs every 3000 km. Factories install Zoomer with NGK and CR7EH9. When replacing, it is not necessary to use original parts. Any resistor type with a 10 mm thread and a gap between contacts of 0.9 mm will do.
  • Replace the belt after every 7,000 km (with moderate use - every 10,000 km).

Scooter tuning

Due to the lack of a body kit and easy access to parts and components, Buzzers open up wide opportunities for improvement. To change the appearance, just paint the aluminum frame in any color; if you wish, you can buy a plastic box and make the moped more sporty and elegant (each part of the body kit will cost about 3,000-5,000 rubles).

To improve the performance characteristics of the scooter, you can make the following replacements:

  • Spark plug . For example, for driving at high speeds you can install iridium CR8EHIX9 or CR9EHIX9.
  • Variable speed drive . You can install a Malossi and complement it with a Zero Duke exhaust. This will increase speed by 10-15 km/h and even out the start.
  • Anthers . In the original configuration, scooters do not have any protection against dirt, so it is better to put boots on the front shock absorber; as a result, oil seals will last 3-4 times longer without replacement or repair.
  • Seat brackets . Their installation will be necessary for tall drivers (above 175 cm) - as a result, it will be possible to move the saddle frame back by 10 cm and increase the seat height. This will make your feet much more comfortable.
