    What I love about this guy is how there's never even a hint of snobbery to him. He doesn't care what the vehicle is as long as it has two wheels or sometimes even three. He sees the purpose is every single one of them. Him and MissendenFlyer are the best motorcycle reviewers on youtube.

      PCP has made people buy much more expensive cars than they could otherwise afford, very few cars would be new today with the cost of living and tax. PCP makes People ignore the big balloon at the end and when faced with it they just take out another PCP for another 3 years and on and on they go forever in debt.
      Commutes today are long and People want cars for comfort. Gone are the days of good paying local work especially in rural areas and with motorways people want to do that in comfort and speed.

    The only bad thing about the new Cub, is that bloody awful, bright red single seat, you could get 3 people on an old one.
    In the UK the best engine choice was the C90.
    They were immortal, and even once they were taken off the road, the kids were running around the fields on them, jumping ditches and running through hedges.
    In the 60-80's nearly all the kids learnt how to ride on them.
    If the engine blew, you knew where another one was, you could do an engine swap in an afternoon.
    If you bounced into a tree, or finally managed to break the pressed steel frame, take off the engine and wheels,
    Someone will be wanting them soon enough.

      The blue/light blue/red seat color scheme and single seat were what they had on the first Super Cubs in 1958. Honda has always considered the Super Cub and its variants to be a single-rider bike, even though they equipped them with longer seats and footpegs for passengers.

    I don't know what they called it in the mid-60s, but my dad had a 150cc version with a fairing like that. Only had it for a couple of months until he went up to a 350 cc bike. He spent his youth on an old Indian with a suicide shift in the late 30s and early forties. Was even driving years before he got his license because he was a military messenger for the Navy in Bayonne. They actually hired bikers to run their messages, they didn't care who you were or how old you were! Just how patriotic you were! At 16 he forged his birth certificate and by the time he was 18 he was sitting in the tail gun of a B-17! So seeing that bike again was a pleasure, thank you!

Currently ride a Piaggio Liberty for commuting and a winter hack! It is a great little Scooter, reliable and reasonably quick! My summer toy is a Vespa GTS300, now that is a proper Scooter for posing and Touring on, but I have to get a Super Cub for the Nostalgia of owning one again!

    I recently purchased the 2022 model (I know all about the 'not another black motorcycle' thing, but I loved it), took me a month to track one down. One dealer down in Detroit was hording them in all of Michigan (that's my story, at least). Bought it in February because I didn't want to miss it (it was 2023) and had to wait until near April to actually take it out.
    I highly, HIGHLY recommend getting a windshield. PUIG makes a couple different styles (I went with the urban because it's a bit taller) and are super easy to install. There are others you can get too, but that was the best price vs. quality. The lens is super clear and doesn't warp your vision. I have noticed that it gets a bit faster when you hit 40-ish because you're deflecting the wind around you.
    It can and will do 60, it takes a bit when you get to 50 to break out of that speed, but it'll do it and I'm pretty sure I could have pushed almost 65. I had just a little bit of throttle left when I hit 60.
