Re: Non US/European bikes

Meihatsu bike with Kawasaki engine


Seen in Kyoto, something recent looking, the only name anywhere is "Tiffany" on the frame, but I wonder if it uses the same Komatsu Zenoah engine as the Fuki range; perhaps it's yet another Fuki mystery. The tank is the same as their basic Lady's frame.

Edit: the Tiffany was an Italjet moped. Why it was in Japan, no idea.

1947 Ito 78cc Model A, Japan. The engine was the same war surplus 2 stroke that Honda used initially.
