I Bought A Trail 90 That Hasn't Been Started In 20 Years.....And it shows

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

This 1970 Honda CT90 has been in storage untouched for roughly 20 years. In this video we get familiar with the machine, try to get spark and install a battery. Then we start inspecting and cleaning the carburetor and fuel system.

Makes a world of difference and I only use simple green degreaser in it. Im so happy when I get a notification that you guys have uploaded new video.

Loved your first CT90 series and all of the content you've shared since then. I'm up to three CT-90s now, and even found one with a sidecar. The value in these has only gone up. $700 seems like a fair price for this one. Now you and camera girl have his & hers Hondas--just in time for Valentine's Day :-)

    I have the EXACT same machine in my garage. I bought as a basket case and have been restoring it. Here's a few things I've run into: The rectifiers on these bikes were barely adequate from the factory and mine wasn't working at all, so I replaced it with a modern version. The wiring inside the handlebars was all shorted together and blowing the fuse because the insulation had flaked off. The potting material in the coil had leaked and the coil was shorted. Good luck with it.

    For three decades, everyone wrenching on Japanese bikes were under the illusion that the screw heads were made from cheese. Few realised that/why the "joke" screwdriwers in the bikes' toolsets fitted perfectly. Instead they put a "quality" Phillips #2 bit in the impact screwdriver and pounded away with the sledge.

    The 70 downtube cover and airbox are kind of unique that year with the recesses for the emblems. I took a set for my 78 and restored with new emblems they look good. Be as careful as possible with those plastics. They love to crack and break easily. 700 is a decent deal for it as complete as it is and milage. I'd look at the gauge closely to see if it matches that year and any signs of tampering to be safe but it looks like the right guage and a low milage bike. If you got a title with it that's a really good deal. Fully restored these can do well. A low milage survivor could do 2k or more with a title I think. Good find!
