Riding mine around Salt Lake City hilly & mountainous terrain I average 154mpg with side stand, luggage rack, saddle bag frames with Chase Harper saddle bag. This bike is very stable at any speed but the engine likes 45mph for its happiest pace. I have ridden up to 60 but it is not smiling at that speed. Make her last. Chain tension is a frequently checked item. Get a sprocket alignment tool.

Super Cubs have never been scooters. Full size wheels, a frame mounted (as opposed to swingarm) engine, and a transmission with gears. It's a motorcycle. Always has been. and 60mph and a 100+mile range is plenty to do distance. And it's comfortable enough too. That said, I like the rest of the review!

You are right but none of those things have anything to do with it not being a scooter. A scooter is just a lightweight, motorized vehicle with a flat footboard and usually an open frame. The bike has a more open frame but it has pegs. Therefor it is a motorcycle but it has always been a scooter-like motorcycle.

@@sergentcolon1 The definition of a scooter is a 2 (sometimes 3) wheeled vehicle with a flat footboard. In the context of a motorcycle if it has flat footboards it is a scooter. All motorized scooters are motorcycles but not all motorcycles are scooters. My point was that it was very 'scooter like' in intent rather than physical form. If I am not mistaken the correct classification is 'underbore motorcycle'?

@@SirNarax yes it is an underbone motorcycle, but not all scooters have flat floors for instance the Honda PCX and many others have a similar design to underbone motorcycles. Underbone motorcycles usually have larger wheels than scooters but again there are large wheeled scooters like Honda’s Sh125 or the Piagio Medley. The main difference between scooters and underbone motorcycles is that the engine is hung from the frame in an underbone and fixed to the rear wheel on a scooter. Either way both are practical and the Subercub is the most produced motorised vehicle in history though the ridiculous plans to ban ice engined motorcycles 125cc and under will mean they cease to be available new in the U.K. in a few years.

Please get your facts right. The Super Cub has always had two clutches. One is the centrifugal clutch which you mention. The other is a conventional clutch (with friction plates). This one is not actuated by a lever on the handlebars. Instead it is actuated by the gear lever. As you press the gear lever you actually disengage the clutch. After selecting the gear the clutch re-engages as you take pressure off the gear lever. It does perhaps give the impression of there not being a clutch. Believe me there is - it is on the parts diagram and, like most clutches, needs adjustment from time to time.

Nice review! I’m 6’ and weigh around 205 pounds. I just bought a new 2021 Cub and absolutely love it. I’m riding this bike more than I ride my bmw r1200rt. Where I live it’s pretty hilly, north county coastal San Diego so getting around and climbing hilly streets from a complete stop takes some patience but it will get you where you have to be, no problem. The key is momentum and that is the fun part and the thinking part.

That is the thing, a motorcycle is great. But gearing up to ride is a whole ordeal. Jacket, pants, boots, gloves, letting it warm up... it's a ritual and I love it. But sometimes I want to hop on and go and not worry about it getting dinged or scratched in a parking lot. The motorcycle is my open road long range scout. This super cub would be great for running errands around town or commuting back and forth to work short distances. Grab a helmet and go.

Good luck trying to find one at the MSRP. They're jacking these things up in price at the dealerships and it's because of the gas crunch. You'll be hard pressed to find one. I was fortunate and found one in the black which looks awesome! People do go out of town with these and go on thousand Mile trips. These also keep their resale value.

These bikes are very common in Europe where not everyone is obsessed with horsepower. The older versions of this bike from the 70’s and 80’s can still be seen and are becoming highly desirable.

I had a few (c90) in the 1980's when I was an angry teen racing around the woods in Kent Uk! These smaller machines are so much fun and you keep your licence! Let's face it, with so many camera's, speed humps, volume of traffic and cost - big CC/speed Bikes are not the way to go - IMO! I recently did a tour of Cornwall and Devon with my Mrs on her GTS125! We did not touch a Motorway or Dual Carriageway (A little bit) in 4 days and 815 Miles! We had an absolute blast and see everything as we chugged around at a top speed of 50mph!

The problem is only one person can ride? How about the backride? Can we install an extension seat for backride?

Rather have one from the 1990`s, It`s weight was 187 lbs Or 85 kgs, was £ 1850 new then, Even with low inflation since then, No way is doubling the price right, This is a hipster gentrification, What`s the point of 100 mpg if it costs more than £ 4000 bucks ? I was often getting 50 mpg out of my old FireBlade, So mpg with motorcycles is not as much of concern compared to a car, Honda should have just stuck the emissions compliant engine in the old bike

Only 100 mpg? The much heavier, quicker, faster PCX manages the same -- and on tiny wheels. Why not a larger tank? A 100 mile range means annoyingly frequent refueling. Why not add some luggage capacity? It would be much more useful with a rear rack. The fairing's nice, but it's not my legs that get cold on a cold day. Any windscreen option available?

I don't know how much the gallon is, but my European 2019 model is doing over 200km/full tank. Depends on terrain. I made about 240km in flatlands.

Add lighter rings to the motor and high octane fuel, and you can get over 65mph, have slightly higher touque, and quicker acceleration.

I want to see one of these go to Conifer and back. Once up 285 and another through Morrison. Or just do a lap in both directions .

I’m not sure about hwy 285. That’s more like a highway ever since they increased the lanes. I think a trip up and back down hwy 74 would be an excellent ride.

The Honda Wave costs half as much on Asia per exchange rates. As far as I know it’s the same motorcycle except for the retro body work that not everyone like. It’s too bad United States can’t get the normal one. We only get the retro model. I’d rather have the affordable modern version. It looks better IMO

These bikes were made for reliability, originally. They were made simple and easy to work on. A kick starter is essential! A battery is one of the most common failures. More so than tire failures! So what do they do? Remove the kick starter and put all kinds of worthless electronics on a work horse! KISS!!

another plus of theL E D lighting is many manufacturers. Did not up grade the charging systems on their bikes to keep up the battery riding full time with the older style headlights in the 1980s I had several Motorcycles that just constantly drained the battery ,luckily one happened to be a Kawasaki that did have a Electric start and a kick start on it so I could usually kick the Bike over to get it running and ride it home to put the battery on a charger FYI the bike ran like crap with a low battery I also had abig Honda that only had a electric starter and was too heavy to get a Push Start on her unless you had several people both bikes were in Factory Specs so the Dealers did nothing to resolve the issue I did actually isolate the headlamp with a switch so I could ride in daylight hours with it off if a Cop pulled me over I just acted like I forgot to turn it on and showed him that it operated as prior to that time we only ran with headlights in the dark I think the law changed in 1980 or 81
