A Super Cub Comes to New York

A Super Cub C70 sighted in New York City! I love, love, love these little bikes. They're ubiquitous around Japan, indestructible, super comfortable, and adorable. I got to ride a friend's family's cub around all of Western Japan in a series of increasingly madcap adventures, and miss the thing as if it were a friend I'd left behind there.

Three-stroke cyclical clutch, nary a maintenance issue ever, hilariously good fuel economy, and SO CUTE. The speedometer on this one goes to 55 kph. Adorable!
