Honda released the Motocompo in the colors Shetland White, Daisy Yellow and Caribbean Red and introduced it as a trunk bike to fit inside subcompact cars such as the Today and the then new City. The handlebars, the seat and the foot-pegs fold into the scooter's body of rectangular plastic to give a clean, boxy package measuring 1,185 mm by 240 mm by 540 mm. Television ads for the City used the scooter too, with the British ska and 2-tone band Madness. It was discontinued in 1983. Each model year has its own page.
