Remember the Honda Juno? You probably don’t, because you’re probably a normal person who doesn’t wake themselves up at night with obscure Honda thoughts dancing through your head. (Lucky you.) There’s one for sale right now, located in Yonkers, New York—and if you’ve guessed that it’s maybe one of the many Honda models that we never got in the States, you’d be correct.
For those unfamiliar, the Honda Juno M80 and M85 were boxer-engined scooters that Honda introduced in the early 1960s. They were only sold in Japan when they were new, and they weren’t particularly popular—so the line didn’t last very long. Now that it’s 2023, of course, they’re regarded as something of interest and curiosity—as is the case for so many models with similar stories behind them.
