New to the forum
Greetings and salutations from North Wales..
Just joined the forum after purchasing my very 1st c90, being a 1979 2 owner, 14k well looked after little bike.
I've basically wanted one of these since being 10yr old flying around on my brother in laws, some 34years ago.
I bought 'it' (Name not yet decided) on a whim and not being mechanically minded, I have no idea what's in store, but she/he starts first time and idles nicely, so its a good start.
Hope to utilise your help and far greater knowledge than I have.
Thanks all -

Re: New to the forum
Welcome.
Before we go any further, what colour is the bike? There's a difference of opinions as to which colour is fastest.
Changing the oil might be a good start. (just don't ask which oil) I expect others will be along with more advice about rolling maintenance, checking, adjusting and replacing what needs to be.
PS. All my bikes have been boys.

I could not find a c70/c90 local for love nor money.....ended up driving Windermere for this one, but seems worth it - fingers crossed. May even see you on the road one day......
