Garden tractor type thing but with a Honda clone 4 stroke trail engine like in the 70s. Think Honda mini trail 50 70 and 90cc. Didn't see a price.

Neat, wonder if you have to shift it like the 50's with the auto clutch and 3-speeds (gears)?

Just rebuilt a real Honda S90 engine for a friends '66 Super 90, great engines that have stood the test of time.

Speaking of the old Honda Trail series from the early 70's, they have a new family out that look very similar to the old ones - they are the Monkey series. Anybody know anything about them?

Monkeys are great little bikes. My buddy had one of the new ones for a while. WAY more features than what any of the old ones had back in the day. Honda has the new smaller one as well, the Honda Navi. Navi is a non-fuel injected, entry level bike. List price is less than $2K (but I have not seen many for less than around the $2200 range). They also have the Grom, which is a bit more upscale, fuel injected, etc. Still cheaper than a Monkey, but not by much. I thought about getting one while I work on my old ones...because for SURE these cost way more than that to put back together.

Never, ever argue with an IDIOT. They will drag you to their level and then beat you with their years of experience

The DAX is a 125 that pays homage to the trail 70. I don't know if its available in the US yet.
