by and for camino lovers

The Honda Camino, in the U.S. better known as “Hobbit”, is a moped which was produced in Belgium and has reached the status of “oldtimer”. The fact that makes the Honda Camino so special is the use of the variomatic technique. Honda introduced this technique before other brands did. That makes the Camino one of the first – if not THE first – moped on which this revolutionary technique was used on. Variomatic is the differential transmission by use of a v-belt and use of weights and pulleys.

The Honda Camino is mostly seen in Belgium but you can also encounter one in France, Germany or the Netherlands. In the Netherlands, the Camino was popular in the border region between Belgium and the Netherlands. Among enthusiasts the Camino has reached a “cult” status there, especially the “Funny” model.
