The Cub lineup has been a blessing for Honda over the years - seeing over 100 million sales since it debuted in 1958. Now, 61 years after the release of the original Honda Super Cub 50, Honda is recapturing the fun in America with the 2019 Honda Super Cub C125 ABS.
Positioned as a city-dwelling motorcycle, the Super Cub line has always been adept at tackling urban sprawl and congested surface streets where the speed limits are below 50 mph. Imbued with extremely user-friendly handling, the Super Cub C 125 retains all of what many riders have loved about the Cubs - lightweight, narrow handlebars great for lane-splitting and a comfortable upright riding position round out just a few of the positive qualities. Above all, the Super Cub C125 is still incredibly easy to ride, with its centrifugal-clutch and four-speed gearbox, it isn’t much of a stretch to think that total novices will come to grips with the C125 in no time.
Powered by a fuel-injected, two-valve, OHC 125cc powerplant, the C125 has enough spunk to keep up with traffic and scamper away from our four-wheeled friends in the streets. Its simplistic motor will also help keep maintenance costs down, just as the original Cubs have done all these years.
17-inch wheels and modest, non-adjustable suspension are more than up to the task when bouncing around town. Featuring 3.5 inches of travel in the front and rear, the damping rates keep the shiny new Super Cub C125 stable, settling quickly after gobbling up potholes and the like.
Of course, where the Super Cub C125 shines is regarding its looks - which tug at any motorcyclist’s heartstrings with Honda’s clever use of tasteful nostalgia. The C125 is quaint, unintimidating and an authentic take on the classic Cub models. All of the cues are hit, with the sweeping 1950s styling and lighthearted color options. If you can’t crack a smile while seeing one of these dice through traffic, you may want to speak to your nearest health professional.
