Predating the legendary Honda Elsinore’s US debut by only a matter of weeks in ’73, Honda’s XR75 was a pint-sized version of its then all-new off-roader lineup. Despite being sized for youngsters, the XR was a venerable beast of a machine.
Paired with the 72cc mill was a close-ratio four-speed tranny with straight-cut gears; housing the engine was an all-new single-downtube chassis. Fitted to the front of the frame was a set of non-adjustable telescopic forks and despite its short wheelbase and lack of adjustability, the XR was praised for its surprisingly on-point handling.
