HONDA METROPOLITAN / JAZZ (CHF50) “Honda retaliated with its fun, but painfully underpowered Metropolitan with the first four-cycle engine among modern 50cc scooters” - Collin Shattuck (Scooters: Red Eyes, White Walls, Blue Smoke) The way some Vespa enthusiasts see it, Japanese manufacturers brought innovation and quality to the scooter market in the 80’s but got lazy in the 90’s due to the lack of competition. With Vespa’s return in 1999, the Japanese could no longer offer 15 year old designs, so they set about bringing in a new generation of products to compete, such as the CHF50. Perhaps this is true, but the in the late 80’s did create an environment that was very unappealing to introduce scooters into during the 90’s. Whatever the case, the market was growing in the new millennium and Honda’s 2002 introduction of the Metropolitan (Jazz in Canada) was a clear shot at potential Vespa customers. For $1000 less than Vespa’s 50cc ET2 scooter, the Metropolitan offered Vespa inspired retro styling with some technological advantages such as liquid cooling and the amazing fuel economy, reliability and lifespan of a 4-stroke engine. The CHF50’s 90-100mpg was significantly better than the ~65mpg that Vespa’s ET2 50 and Yamaha’s 2-stroke Vino 50 could manage.

This motor was also used in the Honda Ruckus, but with a longer swing arm. Overseas the GET2 was used a wide range of Honda’s 4-stroke 50cc’s. The GET2 was developed around the turn of the millennium by Honda Japan and it featured a number of neat innovations. Honda slipped a tiny radiator for this liquid cooled engine directly onto the right side of the engine next to the flywheel. By using a fan on the flywheel that blew on the radiator, Honda was able to create an exceptionally strong liquid cooling system without having coolant hoses routed all over the scooter.
