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.

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