This is a vintage 1964 Honda CA95 Benly, sometimes called the baby dream. It is 50 years old this year! It is well cared for and has been nicely refurbished mechanically and has a very nice fresh paint job. The Benly is a 150cc, 4-speed, 4-cycle OHV motorcycle with standard motorcycle controls. If you are thinking of a modern scooter, this is a real CLASSIC and is almost as good as new. It is appropriate for an around town cruiser, think similar to a modern scooter or a Vespa. I have had it up to about 50MPH, but it shouldn’t be pushed harder. Everything on this bike has been checked out and EVERYTHING works. It does not leak oil, it starts easily and runs great and doesn’t smoke at all. I have a clean and clear Colorado title that matches the engine serial number. I have lots of pictures of the rebuild process on my website. Asking $2750 for a bike that has lots of time and energy invested, you could not buy one and pay someone to build it like this for this price!
