Honda’s little off-road playbike was previewed as the EZ-90 at the 1990 Tokyo Motor Show and then reached production for the 1991 model year as the EZ-9 in Japan, with export-market versions commonly identified as EZ90 Cub. Honda positioned it as a simple, approachable recreational machine for beginners and experienced riders alike, using a fully covered, futuristic body and automatic transmission to make dirt riding feel less intimidating. The nameplate did not span multiple separate eras; available references place its production run from 1991 through 1996, after which it was discontinued.
