Customized Honda Little Cub Goes Viral, Impresses with Adjustable Suspension and Six Brake Calipers (YouTube @mystyle1229)
The Honda Super Cub, the most popular and best-selling motorcycle in history, has seen various special versions over the years, such as the News Cub and Press Cub, designed for newspaper delivery.
These models featured upgrades like large baskets, reinforced racks, more powerful brakes, and sturdier side stands to handle the extra weight of newspapers. Additionally, the Cub has been adapted for different purposes, including the Mail Cub, tailored for postal services.
During the oil crises of the 1970s and 1980s, Honda introduced the Super Cub 50SDX equipped with the Econo Power Engine, delivering impressive fuel efficiency of up to 150 km per liter, attracting riders concerned about soaring fuel prices.
In 1997, Honda launched the Little Cub, a smaller version of the Super Cub aimed at women and shorter riders, featuring 14-inch wheels and a retro design.
Recently, a video showcasing a customized Little Cub went viral online, standing out for its extreme modifications. While it initially appears to have just six brake calipers, each wheel actually has six calipers due to dual brake discs on both the front and rear. The owner also claims to rarely use the front brake because of its immense power.

This customization results in a unique and exotic motorcycle that draws attention for its appearance and functionality, making it a true showpiece.
