Honda are busy releasing the upgrade to the Honda Cub - its the cc110 and it looks like it could be good on rural roads - another version of the Honda cub which is probably one of the worlds best selling motorcycles in the world , used in SE Asia for everything - there have been millions of them sold . These bikes are strong and reliable .
I phoned Honda Knysna to find out when they will be getting these bikes in as they are perfect for a rural run around only to be told that they wont be getting them as they base their model on the sales of Europeans bike and base their stock on this .
This is crazy , small cheap bikes are the way forward for Africa , just look at Angola - what is wrong with the mindset here that South Africans dont want to free their ass so their mind will follow .
