2000 Honda DAX ST50 | The Summer Serenade Auction | 18th July

The Honda DAX ST50 is a compact minibike that combines classic styling with dependable Honda engineering. Originally inspired by the iconic DAX models introduced in the late 1960s, the 2000 version maintains the unmistakable pressed-steel T-bone frame and distinctive retro appearance that have made it a favourite among collectors and casual riders alike. Its compact dimensions and lightweight design make it easy to ride, transport, and store, while its charming looks continue to attract attention wherever it goes. Powered by a reliable 49cc four-stroke single-cylinder engine, the ST50 delivers smooth and economical performance. Although it is not built for high speeds, the bike provides more than enough power for short commutes, campsite cruising, or relaxed weekend rides. The semi-automatic transmission makes it especially beginner-friendly, eliminating the need for a manual clutch while still allowing riders to shift through the gears with ease. The DAX ST50 is also known for its excellent fuel efficiency and low maintenance requirements. Honda's reputation for durability means many examples remain in excellent working condition decades after production. Comfortable ergonomics, a low seat height, and simple controls make the ST50 suitable for riders of all experience levels.

Originally registered on 1st July 2000, this Honda DAX ST50 has covered a remarkably low 458 miles from new. Privately owned, it is one of two examples the vendor has used for getting around London, with this particular machine seeing only very light use before spending several years in storage.

Presented in good running order, it is ready to be enjoyed immediately. With fuel prices remaining high and urban traffic ever more congested, the DAX ST50 offers a charming, economical and practical alternative for city transport. Now widely regarded as a modern classic, this exceptionally low-mileage example represents an increasingly desirable opportunity for collectors and enthusiasts alike. Consigned by Stewart Banks.
