Re: Honda Super CUB C90 - 1998 DeLuxe
I don't really believe in Faith but you are right, this is a perfect personal example of Faith! I could not see myself without the Cub. And the Cub is in tip-top condition showing how much I care for it. Thank you Damien! Really want to own one here. I was looking at the pictures from Barmouth and I can hardly wait to join you with my Cub. Really looking forward to that.damienair wrote:Cool Bike. It was Faith, you were meant to own that Cub.

Re: Honda Super CUB C90 - 1998 DeLuxe
I went back home for a few days and guess what? M.o.T.-ed and insured the C90 for only one ride around Bucharest... a bad investment some will say but a fun one nevertheless! Just in case you were wondering how the roads look on a weekday evening (before people leaving work so the traffic was perfect) around Bucharest Romania, this is a video of it...
Warning! Contains C90 footage...
www.youtube.com/watch?v=3HBaHSjcTmE&feature=youtu.be
Just for comparing the prices from Romania with the ones here in the UK :
- MoT : 110,00 Lei - £19.58 (Romanian MoT is renewed every two years instead of one)
- Insurance : 158,45 Lei - £28.21 (on a 6 months period and no claims).
- We tax our goods annually as mobile goods (vehicles) and terrains or houses that we own. Last time I paid for 2014, the Cub was something around 26,50 RON, the equivalent of £4.72 for a full year.
This is like a VAT payment and the Road Tax is comprised of a Vignette System in which any kind of motorbike is excluded from paying it. Our government and insurance companies are somehow encouraging people to get motorbikes... this is the only explanation that I have since in the last 5 years my car insurance policy increased 3 times and my motorbike insurgence went down by a couple of quids.
The Cub is back in my garage now at home (in Bucharest) with the cover on and awaiting further instructions...

Re: Honda Super CUB C90 - 1998 DeLuxe
Right, since last November when I went back to Romania and MoTied my C90 and fitted the legshield cover panel bought from the UK :
Started the bike back then and it smoked like a 2 stroke (it always does somehow when it's been stood for ages) :

After that, I went for a ride towards my ex-work place to meet my friends with the Cub... and MoTied it on the way :
