Hello to all from Canada,
Just picked up, I believe, a 1965 Honda C65 in good,original condition. My first question is regarding the engine. Are the cases and internal parts basically the same for 50-55-65-90cc engines? It does not have electric start.
Was the C65 for North America only?
I have been riding for 45 years and have owned many bikes of all sizes. My current ride is a 1973 Yamaha AT3 125 Enduro. My first Honda Cub though. Recently retired and working on old bikes keeps me out of trouble.
I live in Calgary, Alberta and spent 33 years as a automotive mechanic. Dabbled in flying too. Thanks to all and appreciate any help.

Welcome!

Not seen one before, but looks smart! :D
I have a 1965 S65, I would imagine they are similar but no idea to be honest. Mine has a clutch.

New to the forum as well, but only a potential new owner at this point. Congrats on the purchase, Jeff. I'm going to follow suit soon, I hope.
