Honda NBC110 Super Cub Postie 2013-2018 Service Manual

Drive's own coverage of the changeover captured the genuine cultural weight of this transition: "the humble red 'postie bike' that has become something of an Australian icon will soon be no more" — after decades of CT110s supplied to Australia Post, the NBC110 arrived built specifically to Australia Post's own operational specifications on Honda's global Super Cub platform, swapping the classic red livery and orange mail bags for grey and green with fluorescent yellow bags.

Power comes from a 109cc air-cooled single-cylinder four-stroke engine, OHC with a 50.0mm x 55.6mm bore and stroke and a 9.0:1 compression ratio, fed by PGM-FI electronic fuel injection, delivering a claimed 8 hp at 7,500 rpm and roughly 8.5 Nm (6.3 lb-ft) of torque at 5,500 rpm, run through a 4-speed transmission with enclosed chain final drive. Just Bikes' own coverage of the launch detailed Honda's genuine efficiency gains over the outgoing CT110: fuel consumption improved by 30%, with the NBC110 delivering a claimed 1.58 litres/100km (149.8 mpg) — Euro 3 compliant with roughly 30% lower CO2 emissions than the model it replaced. Electric start with a kick-start backup made daily route riding genuinely easier for Australia Post's delivery contractors than the CT110's more old-school starting arrangement.

APB Auto's own field experience running these bikes commercially is candid about what actually wears out on a working postie bike: fork fluid evaporating in Australian heat leading to soft, spongy forks that fail safety certification, tires and tubes needing regular replacement from constant gutter-hopping, chain and sprockets wearing from the stop-start delivery cycle, and cush rubbers, clutch components, and timing chains all requiring periodic attention. Australia Post's own replacement policy — bikes swapped out after roughly three years of service or 25,000km — meant NBC110s saw genuinely hard, sustained daily use throughout this production span, a real-world test that later feedback confirmed the model met or exceeded: as one Australian postie-bike specialist put it, "if the CT110 was the toughest bike in the world, it has finally met its match or better with the new NBC110." This generation was eventually succeeded by the C110X for 2018 onward, continuing the same fundamental Super Cub-based postal delivery formula.

This factory service manual covers the procedures, torque specs, and diagrams needed to keep a 2013-2018 NBC110 Super Cub Postie running the way it was built to.
