Oily rag 1977 C90, Brown, near Bracknell
I would like to sell my 1977 Honda C90.
The bike was pulled out of a barn in Norfolk in 2013. I have since refreshed the engine with new piston rings, exhaust valve, valve stem seal, and points (all proper Honda parts from David Silver Spares), rebuilt the carb, and fitted a new NGK D6HA spark plug, inline fuel filters, EBC clutch kit, 6v battery, rear sprocket and new set of Vee Rubber tyres. I have invoices for the parts. The bike also comes with a set of front and rear brake pads (I bought them, before I discovered the original ones didn't need replacing).
Apart from the new tyres, the bike looks the same as the day it was found - original and tatty - and it was my intention to keep it that way as I think it's fantastic.
The only history I have with the bike is an MOT and insurance certificate from 1989. It does not have a current MOT, but I have ridden it on farm tracks - it starts on the first kick and goes well. Horn, indicators and lights all work.
Reason for sale - I already own a big bike and a classic scooter, which is enough to keep me happy.
Price for bike with spare bits is £750 ONO. Collect from Crowthorne, near Bracknell, Berkshire.
