How to distinguish imported Honda Free 50?
2 Answers
Domestic models are the cheapest; followed by parallel imported cars; the most expensive are regular imported cars. Parallel imported cars and imported cars have good quality and very complete configurations. Domestic cars, in order to cater to the tastes of domestic consumers and ensure cost, may have some reduced configurations.
To distinguish the Honda Free 50 imported version, focus on several key areas. The most reliable indicator is the frame number: imported models start with JH1, while domestic ones begin with WH (Wuyang Honda). The imported version uses an AF18E engine with a "Made in Japan" label, whereas domestic models have different engine types. Imported bikes feature Phillips-head screws, while domestic ones use hex screws, and the rearview mirrors have slightly different shapes. All body decals on imported models are in Japanese, whereas domestic versions have bilingual Chinese-English stickers. The imported seat uses special foam padding that feels softer and more elastic. Finally, check the accompanying documents - imported models come with customs declarations and inspection certificates, which are absent in domestic versions.
