1961 Honda Juno

Motorcycles and Powered Two- and Three-Wheelers

The Juno M80 and M85 were introduced in November 1961, as a different approach from the K-series, with no upper windscreen, an exposed horizontal-twin engine in place of the enclosed fan-cooled unit, and conventional monocoque steel body construction rather than FRP panels over tube. The M80 and M85 are in essence the same vehicle, the M85 designation marking an enlargement of the engine in the middle of the year. The sources used for this page record no other change specific to the 1961 model year, so this page claims none.
