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.

Pata Honda To Test ‘Speed Gene’ At Jerez
Tue, 01 Apr 2014This just in from the Pata Honda World Superbike team: The Pata Honda team has announced the introduction of a nepotistic youth policy designed to enhance development and ensure continuity of its world championship racing program. On tomorrow’s third and final day of the World Superbike championship test currently taking place at Jerez in Spain, regular riders Leon Haslam and Jonathan Rea will hand over their Honda CBR1000RR SP racing machines to their respective young sons. Despite being less than a year old, Max Haslam and Jake Rea are deemed to have inherited sufficient quantities of the so-called ‘speed gene’ to warrant a full test on the sophisticated production race bikes.
