Default My Honda Camino

My first vehicle



It's a J-Reg Honda Camino that I bought off of Danny_H. Excuse my stupid grin, just gave it a quick blast to my house and despite not being that quick, it certainly has a good kick








Also, I got it because I can insure it for about £100 a year better than the £400 a month for a 1L Fiesta

Just need to sort out my CBT (I've got a full car license but I think I still need a CBT to ride this, but I'm sure someone on here will know better than me)

you will need to pass your c.b.t. if you have passed your car test in the last 15-20 years.

No mate as it's standing in his garage for over 15 years now

They are/were indeed popular in Belgium, not sure if they were made there

Finally got around to giving the girl a clean, just a few scuffs here and there that I'll touch up when I get some spare money together





Going to buy some mirrors for it, polish the handlebars and wheels and just generally leave my mark on it. Any suggestions appreciated

nice mate
its getting hard to find a camino in an original condition like yours.
yes they were made in belgium. it was the moped to have for young guys in the 90s
very easy to tune,but the real fast parts are getting hard to find now.
yours would look very nice if you could get proma or leovince Exhaust and then crome it

Thanks for the suggestions. Those Leovince exhausts look the nuts but are well out of my price range, one shop wants more than the bike cost

Proma exhaust look great, is this the one you had in mind?

A push bike would probably be faster and cool.

Are you honestly not embarrassed to be seen on that?

My apprentice rides one of these to work but think its only a 50cc. Worked it out that's he's getting 320mpg ( his journeys 21 miles each way. )

Like cold fusion. Money he saved using that for work he spends on fuel to chuck in his Rs turbo lol

Mine's 50cc aswell, it's brilliant how little fuel these things use. Not a bad thing looking at the way things are going

Funny you should say that, I can't wait until the superbike racing at Cadwell Park this summer forthat very reason. I live 5 miles from it and a job lot of big bikes come through the town racing between the lights. I intend to turn up and show them a thing or two

Sorted, I found a dutch company who do them for the same price but the postage should be a hell of a lot cheaper

Do these just fit straight on then or do you need to buy other things to adapt it?

Thanks for the help

I hope so, looking at the website it seems to be telling me all the stuff I learned when I was doing my driving lessons Personally I think you shouldn;t need a CBT if you have a full car license but hey, needs must

I liked the idea of a monkey bike, but when I saw one I thought "Wow I'd really look weird on that" Can't believe how much they're worth these days though

CBT was good, passed it so now I have a full moped licesne Just need to sort some insurance out then I can finally be on the road
