Overview
Honda's Super Cub (or Honda 50 as it was originally called in the US) has been on our shores as long as Honda has itself. The 1962 CA100 was the bike in the "You Meet the Nicest People on a Honda" advertisements of the era. The Super Cub C125 ABS joined Honda's lineup in its current form in
2019.
As unique as its Trail125 counterpart, the Super Cub stands out as a hybrid between a motorcycle and a scooter. These days, it's powered by an air-cooled 124cc four-stroke engine with programmed fuel injection. Like the Trail125, the transmission is a semi-automatic unit with a centrifugal clutch, which means the rider doesn't have to deal with a clutch to row through the four-speed gearbox.
Modern touches include LED lighting, Honda's Smart Key (keyless ignition and storage locking), and LCD info screen. Large 17-inch wheels, tubeless tires, and a disc front brake are chassis highlights. ABS is standard.
Pricing and Variants
The 2024 Honda Super Cub C125 ABS is available in either Pearl Niltava Blue or Pearl Gray for $3,899.
