With the launch of the CZ100¬ in 1960, Honda created the class of motorcycle known as 'Monkey Bikes', so called because of their diminutive stature. They were originally intended for children to ride at amusement parks, and only later did Honda develop a road-going version. The engine was the C100 step-thru moped's reliable four-stroke single, while an ultra-short wheelbase, 5" wheels and a lack of suspension were all features of a machine which, in the case of the folding handlebar version, could be fitted into the boot of a car. Currently displaying a total of only 1,431 kilometres on the odometer, this Japanese-market Honda Monkey Bike was imported into the UK this year. It has been fitted with a three-speed semi-automatic engine, replacing the stock hand-clutch unit. Offered with a NOVA certificate.
