This is a real treasure found only at Alphacars of New England. https://www.alphacars.com This is not a sponsored video, this is only my opinion. This is an original 1967 Honda Super Cub which debuted in 1958, ten years after the establishment of Honda Motor Co. Ltd. The original 1952 Honda Cub F had been a clip-on bicycle engine. Honda kept the name but added the prefix 'Super' for the all-new lightweight machine. The Super Cub sold poorly at first, owing mainly to the recession in Japan, and then three months after the 1958 launch when customer complaints began rolling in about slipping clutches. Honda salesmen and factory workers gave up holidays to repair the affected Super Cubs, visiting each customer in person.[8] When it was imported to the US, the name was changed to Honda 50, and later Honda Passport C70, and C90, because the Piper Super Cub airplane trademark had precedence. Similarly, in Britain they were only badged "Honda 50", "Honda 90" etc. as the Triumph Tiger Cub preceded. The Society of Automotive Engineers of Japan (in Japanese), including the 1958 Honda Super Cub C100 as one of their 240 Landmarks of Japanese Automotive Technology.
