Introduced in 1958, Honda’s classic C100 Super Cub ‘step-thru’ moped gave millions of people the world over their first taste of two-wheeled mobility. Larger-engined versions of the original 50cc Cub were soon made available alongside sports models that were proper small motorcycles. The first nominally 90cc sports model, the C200, arrived in 1963 boasting an overhead-valve engine of 86.7cc that produced 6.5bhp at 8,000rpm. Its cycle parts were typically Honda, consisting of a pressed steel spine frame with swinging-arm rear suspension and leading-link front fork. The C200 lasted in production until 1967, latterly alongside the overhead-camshaft CS90. This C200 is offered fresh from a restoration carried out during the summer of 2006. Work undertaken involved a complete renovation of the frame and cycle parts, as well as fitting a new piston and valves to the engine. Presented in ‘A1’ condition throughout, the machine is offered with current MoT certificate.
