andy m Posted August 23, 2006 Report Share Posted August 23, 2006 (edited) Hi, when the Honda Cub was launched in 1958, apparently sometime after Honda entered a team in the Ssdt. I am talking about the C50/70/90 range of Cubs(autos) not the road bikes with manual clutch as was seen at the pre 65 this year. The Honda Cub was probably the most important motorcycle ever launched, look at the production figures. If it is true about the trials debut I as a Cub fan have not seen anything about it. P.S I have seen the U.S variations with knobbly tyres etc and high level exhaust systems. Thanks.

barcota Posted August 25, 2006 Report Share Posted August 25, 2006 Big John - Weren't there a couple in last years SSDT ridden by a couple of Japanese riders? I seem to remember seeing pictures of them. I thought the pics were on the TC forum but have not been able to locate them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highland lassie Posted August 25, 2006 Report Share Posted August 25, 2006 Pre-65, possibly....SSDT, definitely not! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
totalshell Posted August 30, 2006 Report Share Posted August 30, 2006 p65 2006 definately one small honda ( nice bike but not a step through) ssdt definately not as a step through would not meet the technical regs for dimensions for one..

mikedabike Posted September 2, 2006 Report Share Posted September 2, 2006 YO Dude... sorry Bo just got back from riding waves not streams!!

2fargone Posted September 4, 2006 Report Share Posted September 4, 2006 Hi Bo, I believe the great Eddy Lejeune started riding on C90's modified by his father, the rest is history! And you are right it is probably the most successful bike ever produced so maybe the old step through is'nt just as daft as people think. And it can be done! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pinsx3 Posted March 30, 2020 Report Share Posted March 30, 2020 would a super cub be Ahrma premier legal? Seems if you could prove it competed in trials ... 13.1.2 PREMIER LIGHTWEIGHT: Certain pre-1965 era and like design, unit- or non-unit construction, two- or four-stroke machine, 250cc and smaller. Also, unit-construction, four-stroke machines over 300cc. Examples: Greeves, Dot, Cotton (Villiers-powered), unit-construction BSA singles or twins, Royal Enfield Crusader, Triumph Cub, Triumph 500 unit twin or Triumph-powered Greeves. Hondas are limited to CB160, CL72 and CL77. Modifications and major components are limited to those of the era, typical of machines in the 1960s.
