Honda Cub is the number one motorcycle in the world
In this Discovery Channel program, there is a countdown of the best motorcycle ever. This video starts with the winner, the Honda CUB.

There are already 40 million Cubs build, making it the best selling motorcycle. This is a simple machine with a mass appeal and with its 4 Break Horsepower, it still manages to run 50 Mph.

To demonstrate the reliability of the Cub, the presentors dry to destroy it, using several methods:

Mess up the egine:
By draining all the oil and replacing it with normal cooking oil, the engine should crack up. Fortunate for the CUB it still manage to work even after riding a couple of miles.

Overload:
In the next effort to destroy the CUB, it was overloaded with 200 kilograms, which it could withstand flawlessly.

Drastic measures:
In the final attempt to kill the CUB, it was thrown of a 22 meters tall building. When the CUB collapses it hit the ground with a staggering 54 Mph speed.
Although part of the framework and the wheels get severely damaged, the true measure of its quality is to try to get the engine running... it may not surprise you that after inserting the ignition key and gently applying the kickstarter, this incredible strong vehicle starts without a cough.

In a final statement the presentor says that it would probably only gets destroyed by using C4 plastic explosive.

Because the Honda CUB is such a cheap, realiable, strong motorcycle, it is rewarded as the Number One motorcycle in the world

  • Yes it's truly the ultimate motorbike. The backbone of businesses and families rode on the honda cub, especially around east asia. You can carry a family of 2 adults and 3 children on a cub, and you can carry an unbelivable amount of goods too...

  • むしろ壊れるまで使い倒してこそカブだろう。

  • ちょっと黙れよ日本人、お前らの意見なんか聞いてない

  • 2年前に評価致しましたが改めて。

    このくらい頑丈なものが現在のHONDA全製品に活かされてれば­いいのだが・・・・

    thanks!!

  •  愛すべき、スーパーカブをぶち壊すとは・・・・許せん。 頑丈さばかりが強調されているが、スーパーカブのすごいところは­、信じられないくらいにコントローラぶるなこと。 雨の日にコーナーでスリップしても、挙動がゆっくりでしかも限界­点が掴みやすいので、逆ハンを切ってカウンターをあてることで簡­単にブレーキング・ドリフト状態にすることができ、とても安定性­が高い。 高速でも安定しており70キロメートルの速度でも、50CCとは­とても思えないくらいに安定していたことをよく覚えている。 山道の曲がりくねった下りコーナーでは、シフト・ロックを使うこ­とでブレーキングドリフト状態を維持しながらコーナーを攻めるこ­とができる。 パワーがないので、パワー・ドリフトには持ち込めないが、ドリフ­トをマスターするのに格好のマシンだった。 そんな愛すべきスーパーカブをぶっ壊すなんて狂気の沙汰、許せな­い。

  • my c90s a beast.

  • whats the name of the show plzzz reply

  • ぶっ壊す辺りは、流石外人といったところ。

    ピザ運搬辺りで止めといて、7:00辺りに飛んだら文句なしだっ­たのに。

    「親父」も複雑な気分だろうな・・・

  • I ride one of the descendant of Honda Cub,a 2010 Honda Revo AT (Wave AT in Thailand). After one year (about 12000 Km), still has the same performance as it came from the store. Fuel economy is about 1 liter per 40 Km.
