Today in motorcycle history, June 18, 2004


 


  Honda announces the release of it's all-new 50cc scooter, the Dio Cesta.

 

  Designed as a "fun and convenient way to commute and get around town".  The Dio Cesta features a large, fully-integrated front basket to satisfy all your grocery and liquor store needs.  The Dio Cesta will be manufactured by Sundiro Honda Motorcycle Co., Ltd. in China and released in scooter-crazed Japan on July 2.

  The 4-stroke, air-cooled engine offers low noise and excellent fuel economy.  Fully integrated with the scooter body, the large front basket provides greatly increased carrying capacity and has a rolling shutter to deter theft and hold items securely.  The headlight is positioned below the basket so as to remain clear of items at all times, while the handle cover position lamp serves as a convenient light source at night.

  Dio Ceasta's seat is a stylish two-tone black with brown, and the accents, such as the floor, are a delicate and appealing brown and it's 28" height makes it ideal for female riders and with that in mind, the steering column is designed for lightness and ease of handling.  Introduced with three exciting color options for you or the little lady to pick from: Pearl Procyon Black, Pearl Quench Yellow, and Sirius Blue Metallic.
