Honda CT description

1973 Honda CT70 with approximately 7500 miles. Exact mileage is unknown as I think the previous owner added a new speedo (Current 2762).
3 speed semi auto gearbox (no clutch).
Capable of 38mph with 190lbs person onboard.
Original Blue plate, and registration just recently renewed.
Clear title and Pink Slip in Hand.
Well looked after. 
I bought the bike and the motor was not running well. Since then it has had many new parts installed, and I brought it back to life.
Runs and idles great.
Ideal as a motor home/RV accessory, or just for fun in the summer to go to the shops on.
This bike attracts a lot of attention, and admirers.

New:
Mikuni 19mm Carburetor
Aftermarket cylinder head, piston, and barrel purchased from "T-Bolt USA" (orginal Honda ones included in the sale - need cleaning, minor work, and valves lapping)
Performance air filter and fuel filter
Spark Plug
Ignition points and alternator
Battery
Bridgestone Trail Tires

It's not perfect, but still in great overall condition as you can see by the pictures. 
Great fun to ride around town (as I have been). 
There are a few minor issues that need to be corrected if you are looking for perfection:
Exhaust is leaking slightly from a weld (needs re welding).
3 inch wide tear on the seat (original seat) at the back end.
Chain needs cleaning and re-oiling
Headlight bulb has gone, and I put a LED bulb in there as a temporary solution as they are sealed units.
Frame has some scratches

I'm selling the bike because I have just bought another new project bike, and only have space for one.

The vehicle will be sold as is, as seen by the buyer.
LOCAL PICK UP ONLY

Classic corner: Phillip Island turn 12

Tue, 03 Jul 2012

Ask any racer what corners they would choose for their perfect track and the long swooping left that makes up the final corner of Phillip Island would appear on quite a few designs. Here the Honda World Superbike riders Jonathan Rea and Hiroshi Aoyama, along with technician Chris Pike and Pirelli's Giorgio Barbier detail the classic corner from the Australian track.

Johnny Depp causes high-speed crash

Fri, 15 Mar 2013

I can understand that seeing Johnny Depp appear from out of nowhere might be distracting to a rider. Obviously not content with damage caused to the Honda in the video above (as a direct result of his on-track presence) Depp gets on the bike to go for a spin then crashes the bike himself. This is despite his previous Harley riding experience and some crystal clear advice about the 'killer clutch'.

American Honda Played A Big Role In Bringing Nicky Hayden Back To Team Red

Tue, 08 Apr 2014

In late 2013, American Honda was presented with an opportunity to bring Nicky Hayden back to the Honda family, and renew the relationship that started in 1999 when Hayden was just 17. By retaining Hayden’s services to ride the Honda RCV1000R in the MotoGP World Championship series for the DRIVE M7 Aspar Team in the 2014 and 2015 seasons, American Honda is also now a proud sponsor of the DRIVE M7 Aspar Team. His first MotoGP season (2003) saw Hayden finish fifth in the championship on the Repsol Honda RC211V and win Rookie of the Year honors.
