I saw a commercial for this a little while ago, thought it was neat:

I wonder what the real licensing requirements are for these.

Around my area there are no licensing requirements for anything under 50cc.

I was told that my family sold those before I was born. That would've been in the 70s.

Wow 150 miles per gallon is very impressive. What is the top speed?

Greg_E · November 9th, 2009, 09:45 AM

Top speed was reported as about 40mph.

It's a neat idea that has been around since the first Honda was ever build, they come and go out of fashion. Everything from chain drive to rubber wheel sitting on the tire. Engines from what you see on the link above to model airplane engines sitting on the tire.

It is very similar to the engine used in the YSR 50 which puts out about 7 horsepower.

1952 Honda Cub F (before the step-through Supercub)

Early motorbikes were what you think of today as mopeds.
