Honda Motorcycles Super Cub and 50cc Honda Cub
A very clever design: the Honda Super Cub was the combination of a moped and a scooter. It attracted many people due to its friendly and non intimidating look. People who before had felt threatened by bigger motorcycles, approached and adopted this model very quickly. It was a versatile motorcycle and had enough power to carry two passengers or a passenger with luggage. Its large diameter tires and wide seats made the ride almost as comfortable as the touring bikes from that time. >> Honda 50cc Cub and Super Cub FACTS - In 1952 Honda built 7000 units of this bike which represented the 70% of the entire production of Japanese motorcycles for that year. - Thanks to this model Honda Motorcycles were absolute market leaders during 1953 and 1954. It's worth mentioning that those were very competitive days. There were many manufacturers competing for a very fast growing and demanding market. - The Honda Super Cub was the equivalent of the Ford T or the Volkswagen Beetle for automobiles. As of 1992 Honda Motorcycles had built 20 million of these machines. - The Honda 50cc Super Cub was exported to 120 countries. As the Volkswagen Beetle, the Honda Super Cub didn't change much through time. Just take a look at the technical data below: 1959 Honda Super Cub Specifications -> Four stroke horizontal engine. 1992 Honda Super Cub Specifications -> Four stroke horizontal engine. Enjoy the ride! Daniel Levy |
