Never seen that one before! Nice job! Looks like it should fold up into a briefcase!

Nice!! I've never seen this one either.
Man, you find the most different models on the other side of the pond.
This could replace a spare tire!

Thanks badroadahead. Yes I scour the internet (mainly ebay) to find different things. I don't like to keep building the same because that is boring! Unless it's Meyer Manx buggies!

I didn't see this kit before either, you did a great job Pat!  The Honda Motocompo is a folding scooter sold by Honda 1981–1983. Released in Shetland White, Daisy Yellow and Caribbean Red variants, the Motocompo was introduced as a "trunk bike" (trabai) to fit inside subcompact cars like the Honda Today and the (then new) Honda City. The City's baggage compartment was actually developed around the Motocompo, the handlebars, seat, and foot-pegs fold into the scooter's rectangular plastic body to present a clean, box-shaped package of 1,185 mm × 240 mm × 540 mm (46.7 in × 9.4 in × 21.3 in). It is the smallest scooter ever built by Honda, the company's initial monthly sales projection for the domestic market was 8,000 City and 10,000 Motocompo!  The City surpassed its targets, but in all only 53,369 Motocompos were sold by the end of production in 1983 (no more than 3,000 per month).  |
