Greetings from sunny Zambia

Post by TongaJ » Thu May 05, 2016 9:46 am

Hello, I live in Zambia and have recently gotten into old Hondas. In my search for vintage bikes I have only come across 2 Honda C90s. I would like to try and get some info/advice on them before buying and attempting a restore project. The 2 I've found are in ROUGH shape so I'm wondering if its worth the effort/$$$ !?!?! Particularly I'd like to know the exact year of the two bikes. Look forward to chatting with new people about these vintage bikes.

Hello and welcome.
You'd need a little bit more to go on to be able to try and work out the age of the bikes, namely such things as frame and engine numbers.

Anything is possible ,Have you got all of the engine in the photo ? Chinese pit bike engines can be fitted to all bikes some straight in others may need a bracket your 2 look like 6 volt 90s so will need a bracket .
