SHI150 Motor Scooter
The $4,499 Honda SH150i may look European, but it’s Japanese through and through. A liquid-cooled, electronically fuel-injected 153cc single-cylinder engine rated at 15.5 crank horsepower rests at the rear wheel, and the engine is mated to a “Honda V-Matic belt-converter automatic transmission”— ie, a continuously variable transmission. Instrumentation includes a water temperature and fuel gauge, an analog speedometer, and even an oil change indicator light. Less generous, though, is the under-seat storage compartment, which is barely big enough for a small camera bag.
