Default Honda's only "non-motor powered" mode of transportation. The kick N Go scooter.

I searched the archives, and haven't seen any posts on these things, so I figured not to many people probably know about them.

In the early 70's, Honda made self-propelled scooters called "kick n go's".

From what I gather, they came in two different sizes, the "junior" and the "senior", and each size was available in two, or three wheels.

Here's what they look like:











I think they're pretty neat, and will probably add one to my collection of vintage Honda stuff. They go for about $100 and less on ebay.

Oh wow, I used to have one of those when I was a kid. It was cool for awhile but your kicking leg (I was a right leg kicker) would be tired as hell. Then I would walk all weird cause my right would be all buff and cut and my left leg looked like a chickens....ah memories...


That thing was light though, I bet I could have bunny hopped over your fancy K20

I think I might pick one up, for old times sake and convert it to a RHD
