Description

c.1964 Honda 49cc C100 Cub
Frame no. C100-J034123
Engine no. C100E-171905

Introduced in 1958, Honda's classic C100 Cub 'step-thru' scooterette gave millions of people the world over their first taste of two-wheeled mobility. Better built, more powerful and more reliable than the majority of contemporary mopeds while endowed with handling superior to that of the small-wheeled scooter, the C100 set new sales records for motorcycle production and its descendants continue to be immensely popular today. This C100 is described as an earlier restoration, though its mechanical condition is not known. The machine would benefit from detailing and re-commissioning, and comes with two spare engines (numbers 'C100E-806399' and 'C100E-278982'); two sets of leg shields; spare front fork; a side panel; and a silencer. There are no documents with this Lot, which is sold strictly as viewed. A total of 2,305 miles is currently displayed on the odometer.
