Classics wanted

We buy the classics.

The electric machines we sell descend from small gas classics — and we collect those originals seriously. If you have one in a barn, a garage or a storage unit, we would like to hear about it before anyone else does.

Classics in.
Electric out.

This is the whole shape of FELO USA. The gas originals — the little machines that worked paddocks, pits and farms for decades — belong in a collection that preserves them. Their electric successors belong in your garage, doing the same jobs without the fuel, the oil or the noise.

So we run both sides: we buy the classics, and we sell the machines that carry their idea forward. Sell us the original, ride out on the successor — or just do one or the other. Every machine we buy is kept, not parted.

  1. 01

    Honda Cub EZ90

    The centrepiece of the collection and the machine we want most — any year, any livery, running or not. Factory rarities especially.

  2. 02

    Honda Motocompo

    The folding original. Complete machines preferred; honest projects considered.

  3. 03

    Small Hondas & Suzukis

    Z50s, Daxes, Cub-family machines, Suzuki minis — the paddock and pit classics of the 70s–90s.

  4. 04

    Japanese mini trikes

    Yamaha Tri-Zingers and their kin. The odd ones are often the good ones — ask.

The history

Thirty years of little machines,
one collector who kept them alive.

1981
Honda builds the Motocompo — a scooter that folds into a car boot. Made for three years, remembered for forty.
1991
The Cub EZ90 follows: a sealed-body mini built for trails and pit lanes. Six years of production, then gone — and the paddocks never really replaced it.
The decades between
The little machines keep working — pits, paddocks, farms, barns — while the world forgets to make more of them. The clean ones start disappearing into private hands.
The collection
One of those private hands belongs to David Meunier, the polo patron of Aiken. By his own count: one hundred and forty machines, the Cub EZ90 at the centre of it, factory rarities included. He believes the collection has no equal anywhere. No registry exists to check a claim like that — but when the largest EZ90 owners' community in the country was asked who holds the most, its administrator gave one name: David, of Aiken, South Carolina. “Well over 100.” We have not found a bigger one, and we have looked.
2023
FELO reveals the FW-03 and the M-One at the Tokyo Motorcycle Show — the EZ90 and the Motocompo reborn electric, and openly so. The word in the press: neither machine would be sold in America.
Today
They came to America anyway — because David Meunier didn't wait for an importer. He went first, the way he went first on the originals. In Aiken, the collection and its successors now sit under one roof, and he is still buying.

He didn’t wait for America to get these machines.
He brought them himself.

Tell us what you have.

Model, year if you know it, where it lives and what state it’s in — honestly. Non-runners and projects are fine; surprises after a handshake are not. We reply with questions or a number, and we collect.

No valuation is promised sight-unseen. Photographs help — we will ask for them when we reply.

We use what you send only to reply. We do not sell it or add you to a list.
