Finally! I have been waiting to get all my stage lights together to finally be able to make the into video for my Honda scooter I imagined. In this video we take a test ride and a look at my Retro 1980s Honda Lead NH80 80cc Scooter. The lead was sold under the Aero name in japan and Lead in all other counties. Its an 80cc 2 stroke scooter making about 6.5hp. Don't forget I'm doing weekly uploads heading towards the big goal of 10,000subs!

In india, we had the 100cc version as the kinetic honda, built between the collaboration of kinetic motors and honda. It was even fitted with a 4 stroke engine later when pollution norms became stricter. My uncle had one and I remember riding in it. I also remember being overjoyed when he allowed me to press the start button. At that time in india, it was the only two wheeler with an electric/self start

I really enjoyed this. I found a Honda lead out for rubbish collection yesterday. I picked it up (and all the assorted bits lying alongside the heap) and put it into the back of my Honda Jazz. Now I'm researching thees scooters for the restoration process. I know nothing about them and i don't have a riders licence.... yet.

Very nice impression! I bought a new Lead 80 in 1985. And despite me being 200cm tall, I loved it. Zipping thru traffic, having fun, being young. The only disadvantages where the high fuel consumption, and it was too small for two people. So after a year I swapped it for a Lead 125. Aah, good times!

Owned a couple of these. They get under your skin. Loved the intro!
I achieved 100km fuel range to the red reserve and another 20km on reserve.
The left tab on centre stand scrapes in hard cornering.
They don't have the acceleration from a stationary to match contemporary traffic.

Great video! I own 2 1983-84 Aero 80's and 2 1985 Aero 80's. I love them and they are so much fun to drive. My dad owns a 2001 Elite 80.

I've got an '85 Aero 80.
Bone stock but restored mechanically and it can hit 77km/h in a tuck (gps).
Super peppy for its size. Great fun.
