"You meet the nicest people on a Honda," according to a decades-old ad, but you might not run into anyone if you use the new Hunter Cub CT125 on the type of terrain it was designed to tackle. Unveiled online, it's an evolution of the perennially popular Super Cub C125 upgraded with components that allow it to venture off the beaten path.

Honda brought back the Hunter Cub, also often referred to as the Trail Cub, after a long hiatus to meet the growing demand for a leisure-oriented bike. It's based on the Super Cub but it gains more suspension travel, a stronger frame, bigger tires, and a skid plate that protects the engine. The exhaust is mounted higher to ensure it doesn't lose its first fight with a rock.........
Honda will begin delivering the Hunter Cub in June 2020 in Japan, where pricing starts at 440,000 yen (about $4,000) including a 10% tax. It will be available in other markets shortly after, but there's no word yet on whether it will be sold in America. The company's Powersports division sells the Monkey, the Super Cub, and the Grom here, so it's not unreasonable to assume the Hunter Cub will join the range sooner rather than later.

4k you can get the same performance from Kymco for half that

Really, $4k is a lot for that. If it came in at $2k, they would have something. But it's all ancient old tech, and cheap ancient old tech at that.

The 264-pound Hunter Cub can carry two riders in relative comfort, and it's fitted with a generously-sized rear luggage rack to carry their gear.

wonder where the pillon sits

No passengers, maybe a new slogan, "You meet the nicest person on a Honda"?

Until the second season, when you get zero performance because it has broken.

I remember the park police at one of the R.I. beaches using the original CT110 or whatever it was.

this is my 2nd Kymco, I'll put em up against a Honda anyday for reliability, I've had my Kymco UTV for 5 years now, and I beat the shit out of it, I don't expect any less from my K-pipe, which btw, is already 4 years old, I didn't buy it new

and just so you know, there's a good chance that part of your Honda is manufactured by Kymco, Honda was Kymco's first manufacturing partner back in 1964, and have been manufacturing parts for Honda, as well as other companies ever since
