Designer Igor Chak is celebrating the 50th birthday of one of the 1960s’ most iconic motorcycles with his [Honda](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/honda-motocompo-xl) Super 90 concept. In 1964 Honda released the Sport 90, a bare-bones motorcycle with an engine producing 8 horsepower and a top speed of 64 mph. The Super 90 is the spiritual successor to the Sport 90, paying tribute in part with its [lightweight design and chrome components](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ducati-821).

The Honda Super 90 may be inspired by a bike that’s 50-years-old, but there’s nothing old-fashioned about Chak’s design. For starters, it's powered by [two in-hub electric motors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wn7) and features electromagnetic braking hubs. Information about the bike is shown on an OLED touchscreen located on the body of the bike near the handlebars.
