This Honda Cabina is the first mass-produced commercial vehicle to equip a motorcycle with a combination of a roof and a large windscreen with a wiper.
Honda Motor Co., Ltd. released three types of roofed scooter Honda Cabina in September 15 1994, which is effective in preventing rain, wind, dust and cold and also has excellent livability and innovative style.
In addition to sexiness, we also pursue comfortable livability. In addition, the low and spacious seat shape and newly designed body structure realize a relaxing position that feels like a four-wheeled vehicle. Furthermore, in order to meet the needs of a wide range of users, a wide trunk space was provided under the seat to store a tennis racket, etc., making it a user-friendly urban personal commuter with a new style that differs from conventional scooters.
