Bridgestone 100 Sport

Motorcycles and Powered Two- and Three-Wheelers

The Bridgestone 100 Sport, sold as the 100+ Sport, was introduced in 1967 as an overbored version of the 90 cc single, giving about ten percent more power. A limited edition 100+ Racer was offered with a tuned engine, hand polished ports and a special carburettor. The model later gained a tubular frame and was sold in road trim as the 100 G/P-7 and as a street scrambler with a high level exhaust as the 100 TMX-7, both using the enlarged 90 engine in a chassis like a scaled-down 175 Dual Twin. When Bridgestone left motorcycle manufacture, the tooling and rights for the 60 cc and 100 cc singles were sold to BS Tailung in Taiwan, whose machines were sold in America until 1975 as the Chibi, Taka and Tora.
