I don't think many Montesa's from that era made it to the states. What size is it?

Looks awesome :thumbsup:

I love restoration stories keep 'em comin' fellas.


In the past year I restored an 82 cb900c and cb900f and I have an 86 450 Rebel that is almost done. Pics of the Rebel coming soon. Look in my gallery for the cb900c, the pics of the cb900f were lost when my old computer crashed :cry:

I figured it to be a 250.

Why are you calling it a Honda Brio?


Is there something significant about this motorcycle to you, or was it just what was available when you decided you had too much time on your hands?

Looks great.

Not, it's a 125

Because it's its name, Montesa Brio 81, before Montesa built the Montesa Impala.

I still don't understand where the "Honda" comes in.



Single cylinder 125cc two-stroke with dual exhaust.

And we thought the British were wacked..... :P
