A friend had I think a late ’60′s 160 honda that we tryed to blow up one day. He stood next to it holding the throttle wide open for at least 1/2 an hour then I held it for another 1/2 hour and it still didn’t blow up. I was laughing so hard watching you guys trying to destroy the cub I almost soiled myself. Keep up the good work.

It’s the best bike ever because it lasts forever and holds the record for the most sold powered vehicle in the entire world. 60 million sold. more than any car…more than any bike. More than any train than any boat than any plane. I think that says something don’t you? Take it back to Japan? Why? So all we would have to choose from is Harley’s Buell’s and Chevy Impalas? Don’t be cruel!

And Harley live by it? don’t make me laugh.

you meet the nicest people on a honda :) i ride a rebel and i wont trade it in for the biggest bagginest HD you could find, for one, im too small for them, even a lowered 883 sporty (throws up slightly in my mouth at how many times someone suggests it) im not saying a specific brand is for everyone, but my bike fits me like a glove :) i just love that the number one is an everyday bike

I’d say it may be the greatest moped ever but that’s about it . Ok It has a tranny , that’s why it’s the greatest scooter ever . Or minibike.I’m sure Jim Carrey would ride it all the way to aspen .

it’s perfomance and handling is also great. The bigger the engine, doesn’t mean better performance…maybe you mean “power”.If so, then you ‘re right. It’s not the fastest bike. But…you keep on saying if they gave you a viper or sth like that for FREE…well, they re not. So keep on dreaming free supercars and superbikes… And as far as your knowledge… if you had driven for some time the cub, you would appreciate its capabilities…

Faziljaved , yes I think I’m right and you’re one of the Dumb . I don’t dispute it’s the greatest seller of all time .That don’t make it the greatest. I place much more omportance on performance and handling . Maybe I’m an Idiot but I’d much rather have a Ducati 1198S than a Honda Cub Like the rest of you geniuses .

You dont get it do you? This is a workhorse! If you want to pick up chicks you just take your bigger honda from you garage. And when you have your chick you go to the store to buy ice cream for her with your honda cub.

Does’nt matter , here’s my point put in another way – What would you rather (if someone was to give you either ) have -a Dodge Viper or a VW bug of which many many thousands were built ? Just because a piece of has been around a long time , doesn’t improve it. It’s still a piece of .If there were millions of s crpaeed out ,doesn’t improve them . They’re Still a piece of .
