Honda CT description

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.

Things I wouldn't like to race: Part 1

Mon, 25 Jul 2011

Now 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.

2023 Honda XR150L Announced for Canada

Mon, 20 Feb 2023

A US announcement is expected soon Last month, we reported that Honda was preparing to bringing the XR150L dual sport to the U.S. market, introducing an air-cooled carbureted model marketed internationally as an agricultural vehicle to America. While we’re still waiting for a formal announcement form American Honda, it’s Canadian counterparts confirmed the XR150L will be arriving to North America.

Honda’s View of the Motorcycle Industry in Canada

Fri, 13 Aug 2010

Recently here on Motorcycle.com, we’ve been bringing you reviews of a handful of Honda scoots that are available to our neighbors (or is that neighbours?) to the North in Canada, yet remain forbidden fruit for American consumers. Reviewer Costa Mouzouris gave us a look at the naked CB1000R that Honda Canada is considering importing, the already-available half-faired CBF1000, and the entry-level CBR125R. Meanwhile, Honda’s competitors have also announced some new products for Canada that have yet to be made available in the U.S.
