A small, stowable electric bike would be pretty awesome for getting around places you can't drive. I guess bonus points if it is made by Honda and comes as an option for a Honda vehicle.

If you were around in the early 80's we had all had access 49cc Honda Spree's. Just not foldable but likely identical motor/drivetrain. Kids 11-14 had these everywhere in my neighborhood.

I was around in the 80s....as a baby

[@1guyin10]

I remember reading an absolutely hilarious review of one of these back in the 80's. Cool find!

[@bijanshahidi3933]

Awesome as always with Honda. I wish they make ir again and bring to the States. I will buy one God willing.

[@lanceripplinger8352]

You guys always manage to find cool stuff we've never heard of or seen before. Keep up the great work! 👍

[@greathornedowl3644]

Thank you Kase and Tommy. Love innovative Japanese KEI cars, and the Honda City looked like a great buy, then found out about Motocompo option sent it off the charts

[@RedRanger2001]

The City isn't a kei car, though... You're thinking about Honda Today, a kei hatchback that is smaller than the City.

[@williemaynor7530]

This is an investment, in ten years there will be even more interest 👌

[@thegreenskeep1]

Very clever engineering. I would definitely love buzzing around this scooter.

[@Waybeforethefame]

i just got a 81 Yellow Motocompo I LOVE IT

[@WW-wf8tu]

Back in the 80's I would have enjoyed having this in the trunk of my 63 Galaxy or 71 Mercury for emergencies. Today, a cell phone is more than adequate. lol

[@findingneutral]

Very cool blast from the past 👍

[@tylerfitzgerald266]

I had always wondered why cars like Skylines in the 70s had English badging on it when we never got the car here and apparently the reason why Japanese automakers use English on cars (or the motocompo here) is because shortly after WWII they would start importing vehicles to the US and wanted to be more like the Western world.

[@Cologne_Trooper]

Cool little bike. It’s like a Navi but smaller!

[@wileecoyote5749]

Well,Honda brought back the Honda Trail, Honda Monkey, Honda Dax so maybe theyll bring this one back too! I just acquired my brand new from Honda dealer the 2023 Honda Monkey in Banana yellow yesterday (Feb 26, '23) they are much cooler in person! EFI,5 speed,ABS and overbuilt!

[@yungrunit]

By far that's the best bike u boys ever bought

[@ArneLuksic]

Work of art!

[@johnrossi6212]

These are so cool!!!

[@theoldsmobilefox3101]

I'm thinking about getting one of these to keep in my 18 wheeler.

You're under arrest !

[@revolcane]

Cool, the mini bike from the anime "You're Under Arrest"

[@FrankySilverFace]

Gotta get the Mohawk haircut helmet or a clown rainbow hair wig with the big red nose riding gear to really live the motocomp life. But seriously this is a fantastic idea from yesterday that also fits the needs of today. Cool video.

[@atuja70]

I need that thing 😍😂

[@adinougraha]

This has to make a comeback

[@repsol6198]

Honda really made some great bikes back in the 70's and 80's, seems like the new ones all look like Transformers.

[@user-tm9ho3bm4v]

They think that's what makes yamaha sell. Go figure lol

[@elliottlee1050]

The Grand Poobaw has arrived! Just need a red Shriners hat! That aside it is nifty even if not my taste. I love teeny cars(all cars). But as I'm 6'2 at 200-220 on average(fluctuates often), not a good ride for me. 5'9 150 sure 😆🤣🤷‍♂️ - But seeing your enthusiasm is always fun, whether it's my style or not!

[@LukeEdward]

This is neat!

[@crsbryan]

Needs a fresh speedo cable. Good find!

[@scubatrucker6806]

Now that make a Ebike version of this bike..❤❤❤❤❤. It's like when I was a child I owned a mini bike. I'm 55yrs old and I would love own and to ride this bike

[@wileecoyote5749]

Im 55 too. Just picked up my brand new 2023 Monkey in Banana yellow. Wasnt able to get an original monkey in the 70s that were 50cc now I got one with 125cc,5 speed,EFI and ABS! Yes I know,mid life crisis ha ha

Need to do a side by side comparison of this vs the Honda Navi

The Navi is 110cc. What's to compare?

[@kc0lif]

nice scooter and nice dog.

I bought a honda ruckus because of that video of mighty car mods 😅

[@scottyellis3442]

Cool little bike, did it come with a car or was it an option for the Honda?

[@johnrossi6212]

You guys need to get a Honda Urban Express

[@JOHNJ0HN9111]

those bikes are good if you live in a downtown area just to get around that area..

[@Ford_TImelord]

I've seen one driven around Tokyo. No Honda City in sight though

[@Prepare2Survive]

Yeah, Honda should make a new one that fits in the back of something like a Honda Fit or Honda Civic.

[@Sircade]

Hey my friend has one of these and she says she just needs a battery to get it running do yall know what kind of battery i could order that would work with it?

[@frankr111th]

The original mini moto

[@ROGER2095]

I'd keep one in my truck for when I run out of gas so I wouldn't have to walk to the nearest gas station! (It's happened more than you'd think.)

[@kayla_white01]

Those handlebars give me anxiety, they need a brace

Will Honda ever make anything like a $500 or even $1000 Mini compo? 😂🎉❤

[@PositiveParakeet]

they just did!

[@Humblentough]

Japan I love you!

[@spencerleeb]

I remember years ago seeing these listed for $2500 thinking that was outrageous. Honda needs to bring this model back in EV form! They're going retro crazy and this would make a perfect addition to their lineup (Navi, Monkey, Grom etc). EDIT: This aged like wine.

[@experienciahmm]

They just did

[@spencerleeb]

As excited as a am for the new Motocompacto, I wish it had more range and higher top speed@@experienciahmm

[@captainplanet43]

the honda navi is the newer compo

[@zahaidrahman2052]

The new one is very disappinting, its an electric version. The purpose i would have wanted to use it for is a last mile vehicle to take on plane rides. Because i want to learn how to fly, but the old one is better for this Because i wont have to be limited to a very short area from the airport, i can just fuel it up and go further.

[@yogavnture1]

Id rather have that dog

[@gearjammer3688]

There is very little street crime in Japan, so that cable would do a job.

[@maximilian7545]

Wo cries for an electric version understands nothing from the two stroke noice, smell and feelings.

[@jamesward5721]

They failed to catch on as like the handlebars, a little knob tended to be on top.

Your paying antique prices. Get antique plates.

it's just like those electric scooters u rent everywehere... but with an engine and has a seat

Great for its time, but an e-scooter will do the same job much better these days.

Unfortunate how we cannot have nice things today. This would be ripped with narratives of safety, pollution etc, rather than hailed and given credit for fuel savings, space savings for apartment/loft living, traffic congestion savings, parking hassle savings etc.

Would have been better as an electric

Why does a bike you can pick up and walk away with have a steering lock? LOL

$10 to the first guy who rides it through the local airport.
