They're not in the showroom yet but all Honda Super Cub C125's have been spoken for with waiting lists when/if the next batch arrives. Is this just a bunch of Baby Boomers suffering from sentimentality for the good times they had on Honda step-throughs back in the sixties? Is there finally a movement towards a practical lightweight? Will demand fall flat once the excitement and initial sales pass?

Those in the motorcycle press who've ridden it say it's wonderful and it's probably the nicest step-through Honda has ever built.

Your thoughts?
