    Of all the motorcycles that I have had the good fortune to acquire in my lifetime, the C-50 (blue & white) that I had a teenager in 1966 was the one that I miss the most. It was a simpler time and it offered the ultimate economical FREEDOM !!! Thank you for sharing. Greetings from Ontario, Canada.

    Thaks for the video, great to see another cub owner having fun around some beautiful scenery. I bought a C125 after watching Mr Fish and Teapot One having their little adventure, and I can confirm it takes you back to the basic joy of riding a motorbike. You have to leave your ego at home ( not enough power for a passenger) but I've found most riders are very positive and come up and have a chat about it. It's amazing how many bikers got their start on one of these, or have their own supercub story like yours. 👍🇦🇺

      Not enough power to go downhill in wind as well. I love riding my semi-auto scooter, it makes me smile everytime and I think for first year power was enough, but I live in area full of hills, so hillclims or windy weather really was pain in ass, so that is why I tuned it up a little bit. I find it actually sad, that after all those years, Honda was unable to add 5th gear, more power, bigger tires, and instead added electronic bullshit. I live in country, where you can drive Cub like vehicles with car driving licence only, so I think 11 HP from start could be dangerous, but really in long term, it does not make a sense for people who are not typical asian size.

    Even though it has a semi-automatic gearbox, you can still push start it. Just simply push the bike forward, and when you reach maybe 20 km/h you kick the shifter on the back side. I have a Taiwanese-made one, fun bike to ride.
