Love Cub 50 Project: Scooter Art!
July 13th, 2009 - What do you get when you mix art, 60+ Super Cub fans, and some crazy Japanese custom scooters? The Love Cub 50 Project, started by Super Cub fans, exhibited over 60 Super Cubs turned into works of art, at the Mori Arts Center Gallery, from June 26 to July 5, 2009.
The Super Cub, Honda’s popular long-selling scooter, marked its 50th anniversary last year since first going on sale in August 1958. Currently manufactured at 16 locations in 15 countries, the Super Cub is sold in 160 countries and regions around the world. It is the world’s best-selling bike, with cumulative sales topping 60 million units in April 2008.
On the Super Cub's 50th anniversary in August 2008, fans started the Love Cub 50 Project as a way of expressing their appreciation for the bike.
Over sixty original design Super Cubs made their debut. All proceeds from the unveiling event and sales of the official guidebook will be donated to UNICEF via the Japan Committee for UNICE. Check out the Love Cub 50 Project HERE
