About five years ago I lamented the redesign of the Honda Super Cub. I hated the way the 2013 model looked - like a cheap knock-off. But Honda has totally redeemed itself with the 2018 model! They brought it back to its iconic, elegant roots, restoring the sweeping, curved lines, 2-tone paint scheme, round headlight (now LED), and classic side covers. Technology-wise, of course, it's newer than ever, with an enhanced, low-friction engine, fuel injection, and a 2-stage catalytic converter. 2018 marks the 60th year of continuous production, and they recently passed the 100 million mark in terms of total units produced so far. Oh, if only they'd make this beauty available outside Japan!
