2003 Honda Gyro Up 50cc 2-stroke automatic

Hold up—before you scroll past thinking “yet another scooter,” let’s talk about the 2003 Honda Gyro Up 50cc. This isn’t just a moped. It’s a two-wheeled time machine that says, “I’m late for work, but I’ll look cool doing it.”

Imagine a Vespa and a Segway had a baby in 2003—and that baby refused to grow up. That’s the Gyro Up. It’s got that rare “I don’t need balance, I’ve got attitude” vibe. And yes, it’s a 2-stroke automatic—because who has time to clutch and shift when you’re busy being effortlessly cool?

Under the seat? A 49cc air-cooled 2-stroke engine that purrs like your cat after stealing your last slice of pizza. It hits around 35 mph (56 km/h)—fast enough to outrun your regrets, but not fast enough to get arrested (probably).

Real talk: this thing sips fuel like a snail at a wine tasting. We’re talking 100+ mpg! You could ride from Tokyo to Osaka on half a tank… or just loop your neighborhood for three weeks looking mysterious.

And the automatic transmission? Smooth as your dad’s pickup lines. No gears, no stress—just twist and go. Perfect for zipping through traffic, impressing pigeons, or pretending you're in a retro anime.

Now, for the nerds (we love you): here are the juicy specs:

• Engine: 49cc, air-cooled, 2-stroke, single cylinder
• Horsepower: ~3.5 hp @ 6,500 rpm (don’t expect a rocket, but hey—it moves!)
• Top Speed: Approx. 35 mph (56 km/h)
• Fuel System: Carbureted (old-school, like your vinyl collection)
• Fuel Economy: Over 100 mpg (seriously, it’s ridiculous)
• Transmission: Honda V-Matic (no clutch, all chill)
• Weight: Just 77 lbs (35 kg)—you could carry it if you gym bro’d hard enough
• Tires: 8-inch wheels because tiny = mighty
• Brakes: Drum front and rear—simple, reliable, low-drama

It even leans into turns like a boss thanks to its funky tilting mechanism. Rain? Potholes? Judgmental neighbors? The Gyro Up doesn’t care.

So whether you're commuting, collecting, or just trying to feel 15% cooler on a Tuesday—this little beast delivers. It’s not transportation. It’s personality on two wheels.
