With the launch of the CZ100 in 1960, Honda created the class of machine known as 'monkey bikes', so called because of their diminutive stature. The power unit was the C100 step-thru's reliable four-stroke single, and an ultra-short wheelbase, small wheels and a vestigial fuel tank were all features of a machine which, in the case of the folding handlebar version, could be fitted into the boot of car. A 72cc version, the ST70 Dax, with slightly larger and more practical frame was introduced in 1969. This particular Dax was purchased by the current vendor in 1985/86 and has been stored, unused, since then. Offered for restoration and sold strictly as viewed, the machine is described as in poor condition, the engine being a runner but the transmission stuck in gear. A Swansea V5 comes with it.
