Honda Cub 90.
I watch Top Gear run their tests on this little machine, including blowing it up in a block of high rise flats, throwing it off buildings and some other shizzle. Cant remember exactly how scientific these tests were but funny none the less.
The bike also started after such mistreatment.  ____________________ Suzuki VL Intruder 125cc - September 2004 to July 2005

Yep, C90 as my GS has let me down once and my C90 that I had years ago never missed a beat.  ____________________ Andy Sez....

I might be wrong (and usually am), but isn't the C90 also the best selling Vehicle? Its out sold the likes of VW beatles and such...
I think the test on Top Gear finally managed to kill the C90 by running over it a few times with a Challenger Tank!!
A friend of mine had a Simpson 50 back in the day, it did not matter what we put it through, we could not kill it... We even managed 5 up on it, off road once! Although, the next day it only had 3rd gear...No neutral, just 3rd. But still it carried on for a few more weeks before he sold it, still running!
He got £5 for it if i remember rightly. ____________________ TS50ER + big bore kit n pipe, TZR125 with pv kit, TSX125, KR1S, ZX7R, R1...

Being a trifle pedantic here but the C70 was a better bike than the C90. They pulled better and went faster.
Another similar one which you don't often see is the Yamaha T80 townmate. It's basically an 80cc Honda Cub with shaft drive. ____________________ “Rule one: Always stick around for one more drink. That's when things happen. That's when you find out everything you want to know.”
