It is not a bad reproduction, but they are are only selling through this site and they are asking too much for them.

They should be about $1,399.00 delivered.
I think that I would like to see that Yin Xiang 175cc engine in this frame…

I am even ok with the drum brakes…call me crazy but I would like to have one.
Even with the Chinese name and decals on it.

Instead of retro classic they offer these….YUCK!

I think the Honda Solo is very cool….

The horizontal market is developing faster in the USA then any other, PIT Bikes are the reason why.
These align on that development., that being any offering with a compatible horizontal receiving frame could accommodate these high performance horizontal engines and the parts for them abound.
Is a suspended rear wheel and foot shifter for sissies?

Here is another custom, this one off the Super CUB, which is what the XY110 is a copy of.

There are lots of cool little shops in Japan, these are out of Garage 521
At least that it's not a problem. Something that is more or less the same as a motorcycle in the photo, is produced in large quantities.Quote:

Those frames are really too small for many people, the Honda Solo is really good design. Much better then the SACH MADASS
I really favor more towards something new like the Honda SOLO or revision of something old like an Aermacchi Harley Sprint, those were 250-350cc. However they did not have a lot of power. I like to see the Chinese horizontal engines in a version of one lighter and faster.

Such a simple design, but its appealing.

It would not take much to make the modern engine look like the old ones, this 175cc has 4-valves and is rated at 13kw also has oil cooling.
