1970 Honda CT90 Trail
One Owner. Sells On Original Virginia Title Issued When Bike Sold New!

Only 2,127 miles. Purchased new at Honda of Norfolk, VA in May 1971 (Honda of Norfolk sticker still on bike). Last licensed for the street in 1980. Stored for the past 30+ years. 

This CT90 spent a week in my shop being deep cleaned and tuned. Metal parts down to nuts, bolts, screws and washers were carefully cleaned and glass bead blasted. The foot peg/kickstand assembly, the center stand, the battery holder and rear tail light housing were repainted in their original black. The factory School Bus Yellow paint remains original. The only new parts put on the bike are the 6 Volt battery, a new NGK spark plug and I installed an in-line fuel filter on the reserve hose. 

When pulled from storage the fuel tank was (thankfully) full of old fuel. This prevented the tank from rusting so it is remarkably like new inside. The stale fuel was drained from the tank and carb and replaced with fresh, as was the oil. The original spark plug was removed, cleaned and replaced. The engine then started on the second kick. Amazing, but just what you would expect from a Honda. The carburetor has since been dismantled and cleaned, the original spark plug replaced, and the valves adjusted. The engine starts on the first kick, idles perfectly, pulls strong in all gears and does not smoke!. The transmission (both high and low ranges) shifts beautifully. The bike wears its original factory installed tires which are still holding air perfectly. The complete original tool kit is still there with a couple extra tools packed in and spare fuses. The headlight works perfectly (high & low beam), the tail light works perrfectly, the horn works perfectly. This bike was obviously delivered without turn signals. The mounting positions had (deteriorated) rubber plugs installed. Same for the mirrors. It is about as original as it gets and has a nice patina showing that originality and use by the one owner. The original title transfers to the new owner who then becomes only the second titled owner of this CT90. This bike is a great find as an all original, and not just with a title, but with the original title.

Parts for these classic Honda's are inexpensive and readily available. You can reliably ride and enjoy this bike as is and inexpensively install any new parts it might need along the way, or it is a perfect candidate for  restoration to factory showroom condition if so desired, which would consist pretty much entirely of cosmetics. Absolutely no need for engine or transmission work. 

High bidder at the conclusion of the auction owns this bike! Before bidding if you have any questions regarding payment (C.O.D. or Bank Wire within 3 business days) or delivery (Buyer Responsible. Please take delivery within 2 weeks) please call so we can discuss it and avoid any misunderstanding. I am happy to answer any questions and will be happy to arrange for you to see the bike if you would like to come have a look. You can reach me at 336-372-7400 between 8:30 AM and 7 PM 7 days. Thanks for looking and good luck if you decide to bid.

Honda CRF450R Gets Further Refined for 2014

Tue, 14 May 2013

The CRF250R received a significant update for 2014, including a new frame and dual-exhaust setup first introduced in the CRF450R  which itself received a substantial update year. The current-generation CRF450R may only be a year old, but that didn’t stop Honda from introducing a couple of refinements for 2014. For 2014, Honda had tweaked the engine, adding new intake and exhaust ports and a new dual-timing fuel injection setup.

EICMA 2013: 2014 Honda CBR1000RR First Impressions – Video

Tue, 05 Nov 2013

It may not have a fancy electronics suite like many of its rivals, but the Honda CBR1000RR has long been one of our favorite literbikes due to its light and nimble handling combined with strong, accessible torque. For 2014, Honda is upping the ante with the CBR1000RR SP edition. No, it still doesn’t have any electronic aids, but it does have a bevy of top shelf suspension components.

Top Five Global Motorcycle Companies Ranked

Fri, 21 Feb 2014

- Honda Motor Company Limited - Yamaha Motor Company Limited - Hero MotoCorp Limited - Bajaj Auto Limited - Harley–Davidson Incorporation According to Research And Markets, who bill themselves as “The World’s Largest Market Research Store,” these are the top five companies of the global motorcycle industry, with data collected from 2006 – 2011. The study itself is several chapters deep and must be purchased (you can do so at the link above), but in short, Research And Markets have compiled a study observing the evolving global motorcycle industry, its competitive landscape, and the corporate and marketing strategies adopted by the motorcycle companies as some of the factors to have remarkably impacted the global motorcycle industry dynamics. Developing regions, such as Asia and Latin America, which perceive two-wheelers as a basic mode of transportation, are expected to remain the most promising markets for scooters, light motorcycles, and mopeds.
