Honda 'scoopy'?

Post by mousewheels »

Never seen one of these before. Looks a little like a transition from the Honda Express (but I'm never been that close to one), big spoked wheels, but plastic floor, legsheild and headlight giving a preview of the Spree to come.

Yes.

Bicycle tires go by outside of the tire. Moped tires go by rim size.

In other words, yes. Its a 16 rim, 20 tires.

Yeah, I hear you about parts and mods. Kinda pulling at me because its different. Scoopy is a funny name, must have been popular to keep the name.

Might even be 14" rims - if it shared wheels with the Express.
