1983 Honda 85cc C90 Cub Registration no. A276 EJU Frame no. HA02-1123810 Engine no. HA02E-1123809 •A true motorcycling icon •Partially restored •New carburettor Introduced in 1958, Honda's classic Cub (or Super Cub) 'step-thru' gave millions of people the world over their first taste of two-wheeled mobility. Honda's business associate Takeo Fujisawa had identified the need for a small cheap motorcycle that would have to be uncomplicated in design, fundamentally robust and easily maintained, enabling it to sell in developing countries as well as the affluent West. His foresight would make Honda a household name throughout the world. Larger-engined versions of the original 50cc Cub soon followed, the (nominally) 90cc C90 arriving in 1965. Better built, more powerful and more reliable than the majority of contemporary mopeds, while at the same time endowed with handling superior to that of the small-wheeled scooter, the Cub family set new sales records for motorcycle production and continues to be immensely popular today. Indeed, more Super Cubs have been produced than any other motor vehicle in history, with the 100 million mark passed in 2017. A true motorcycling icon that is becoming increasingly collectible. This Honda C90 Cub was partially restored by a private owner several years ago, including a partial respray, reupholstered seat, and fitting a new carburettor and exhaust. It has not been run for some time. The vendor recommends draining and cleaning the fuel tank, flushing the fuel lines, adding fresh fuel, and general recommissioning. The engine shows a healthy spark but is currently non-running. Sold strictly as viewed, the machine is offered with a V5C Registration Certificate and two ignition keys, although neither operates the helmet lock. Footnotes: All lots are sold 'as is/where is' and Bidders must satisfy themselves as to the provenance, condition, age, completeness and originality prior to bidding. AUCTION INFORMATION & GUIDE FOR BUYERS Please see the Auction Information and Guide for Buyers at the top of the main sale page (Motorcycles Online - The Summer Sale) for all pertinent information regarding bidder's obligations, viewing, bidding, payment, post-sale collection & transportation.
