The Honda CT-90
was a small step through motorcycle manufactured by Honda from 1966 to 1979. It
was offered in two models - "Trail" or "X" with the main
variations being gear ratios and tyre style. Perhaps one of Honda's hidden
success stories, this bike sold well worldwide and has a faithful following to
this day and has become collectible.
Basic Information
The CT90 in its classic form was an 89cc 4-stroke air-cooled single with a
four-speed transmission and an automatic clutch, coupled with a 1.867:1 ratio
reduction box switched into operation using a small lever under the
transmission case. The cylinder was nearly horizontal in the step-through
tube/stamping frame. The fork was originally a leading link suspension,
replaced in 1969 with conventional telescoping-tube suspension.
The CT90 ended
production in 1979, replaced the following year by the Honda CT110, which was
essentially the same machine bored out to 105cc and weighing slightly more. The
1980 CT110 lacked the sub-transmission, however it returned in following years.
Honda targeted
hunters, fishermen, commuters and outdoorsmen with the Trail 90. Early ads
often featured these bikes in wilderness settings, and they were very well
suited for narrow trails, being small, lightweight (around 188 pounds) and with
a forgiving suspension. It was ideal for climbing and carrying packs. The
four-stroke engine was quiet and almost all models were equipped with
spark-arrestor exhausts.
While targeted at
off-road uses, this was not a "dirt bike" in the conventional sense.
What's more, they could and often were registered for road use and had a top
speed in hi-ratio road gear of around 55mph or 80kmh. Fuel economy was
excellent, often around and above 100mpg. In local commuter traffic, they were
extremely maneuverable, though they were poorly-suited for highway travel due
to limited power, off-road-biased tires, and top speed.

2013 AMA Supercross Minneapolis Race Report
Mon, 15 Apr 2013Hometown hero Ryan Dungey put a stop to Ryan Villopoto‘s winning streak, taking the victory before 48,846 supportive fans at the Metrodome in Minneapolis, Minn. The Red Bull KTM rider from nearby Belle Plaine, Minn., stalked Monster Energy Kawasaki‘s Villopoto for most of the race before taking the lead and winning the 20-lap race by just 0.903 seconds. The win put Dungey into second place in the standings ahead of Rockstar Suzuki‘s Davi Millsaps and perhaps more importantly, cut away at Villopoto’s points lead.
Things I wouldn't like to race: Part 1
Mon, 25 Jul 2011Now I know that Mike Hailwood raced a 6-cylinder Honda but that's no excuse for this CBX I spotted at the Bikers Days Spa Classic. The 1047cc, inline 6 cylinder, 24 Valve, DOHC Honda might be a feat of engineering brilliance but it looks like it would be a right handful on track. I've added a picture of an oil tanker to give you an idea of just how long the CBX's wheelbase really is.
WSBK 2013: Portimao Race Report
Mon, 10 Jun 2013Marco Melandri and Eugene Laverty split a pair of victories at Portugal’s Portimao circuit while Sylvain Guintoli took advantage of some misfortune to his championship rivals to increase his lead in the 2013 World Superbike Championship standings. Guintoli has been leading or sharing the lead in the championship since winning the first race of Round 1 in Australia, but amazingly continues to lead despite having just that single victory after six rounds. The Aprilia rider has accomplished this through his consistency (Guintoli leads all racers with nine podium finishes in 12 races) and ability to finish each race (he’s the only rider in the top seven without a DNF).
