Honda's profilation of this bike |
Why does just about everyone who sees a Metropolitan want one? It´s not just for the ruby-red paint or the smart European-derived styling. It´s also for the go-green gas mileage and the fully automatic transmission. This practical-minded mount comes with a feisty 49cc engine that lets you zip around with ease. And while the Metropolitan´s no-nonsense reliability is what you expect in a Honda, its cool style is what makes it hot. |
