Hello,

After promising to do my CBT and bike licence for the last 25 years the current fuel price debacle has finally given that last boost to do it. I have bought a brand new Honda CB125F to learn on, but have always wanted a C90 since being a kid.

I have always been into classic minis, however have now sold my Mini and want to progress the bike scene.

Am loving 2 wheel life and wanted to learn to ride a geared bike, however I think the 125 needs a stable mate.

So, in the market for a c90. Looking forward to a new adventure.

Well, finally bought a C90.

Hopefully pick it up on Friday.

I like the more classic look so have gone for a 1980 round headlight in the classic red and white.

Running and goes through the gears ok, however has not really been run regularly for years.

Some surface rust but after a good dig around she seems to be solid.

Really looking forward to a new adventure and to learn about these great bikes.

Will post pics once collected.

Excellent! It sounds like a C90ZZ from Boo's Cub spotter guide. viewtopic.php?f=11&t=1098

Enjoy!

Thank you.

Profile updated. What a great link regarding all the different models. Definitely looks like mine is a C90ZZ.

Welcome from Essex.

Looks like you aren't that far from a lot of advice on C90s of that era. :D

Great riding country too, check out....

Oh, and I like the look of the CB125F too, not ordered one as they were in short supply earlier this year, maybe next year.

New Cub home safe and sound.

Only ridden round the street but love it!!!

Decisions now whether to do a sympathetic restoration keeping the patina, or a full on strip down and new paint?

For now just tinker and enjoy!

They do make a good pair!
