Honda MB5

Back in the old days on 80's, sport motorcycel gottten pretty big and everyone wanted to ride like king Kenny or Fast Freddie. In my case, David Aldana...Honda MB5 (also known as MB50)was one of those bikes that satisfied motorcycle nuts who were not able to get bigger bike, yet.  It was basically  a motorscooter, though styled like a sport bike. Top speed was in excess of 50 MPH from a 50 cc two-stroke single-cylinder engine, producing about the same HP as a lawnmower and mated to a 5 speed transmission. The MB5 also had several features normally found on bigger bikes: a speedometer, a tachometer (with a redline of 10,500 rpm!!), front disc brake, and Honda's Comstar wheels.

  Unlike Honda cub or scooter, it looked like a motorcycle and real fun to ride. Needless to say it was a great tool to horn your motorcycling skills- learn not to waste the momentum since the bike did not have much power...
