Honda Motorcycle Ad 1964 JulyFull color 7 1/2″ x 10 3/4″ ad shows a suited man driving a Honda 90 and looking back over his shoulder at a girl who is sitting in the passenger seat and facing backward. The ad headline says this is “Pretty foxy” probably in reference to the fact that the lady is dressed in a hooded fox stole and probably little else. The ad text talks about the features of the Honda, always referring to ‘she’, and mentions the 8000 rpm that will put out 6.5 horsepower. Did you ever notice that when the horsepower is under ten it’s important to get every single tenth of a horsepower into the claim, when you are over ten horsepower the decimal point never appears.  1964 Honda 90
