This is an advertisement in the Motorcycle Mechanics magazine, July 1963.  I wish I could get the mini fairing from the top of the headlight.....

Honda Benly JC56

Honda Benly JC56  1955.
 This is the 3rd generation of the Benly J model.  This one had increased power and the Dream-type pressed metal backbone.  The forks were designed for racing at the Isle of Man.  According to Honda, ride comfort was excellent.
Look at those front forks!  They are sick!  Check out the way the levers are attached too.  I would love to do that to my old ca95 dream
Airbox with BENLY pressed metal.  I love old engines with fins.  I even like flathead motors.....
