VOL. 56 ISSUE 9 MARCH 5, 2019 P89 T here is so much history surrounding not just the Honda Cub/Super Cub that it's impossible to document it here. However, Honda has given us a few links, which we'd like to share with you on the Cub and company history. This first one is all about the early years of Honda and how they got started in Japan, to their arrival in U.S. and the challenges they faced in convincing the public to try their products. This second link delves further into the history of the Cub that we summarized in the first half of this review. It's an excellent volume put together by Honda, detailing one of the most important machines ever created. (Left) The step-thru lives on. Very little has changed in overall styling from this and the original Cub of 1959.
