Yeah I am pleased with how much it went for, but it does have an awful lot of new parts on it and is in stunning condition... think the buyer will be pleased too.

Re: My Blue C90 on Ebay
They're only getting rarer in that condition, and when time (all of it!) is costed in it might look a lot, but probably means the restorer has worked for 39p an hour!
Oh, I saw the bike a couple of times, and it was Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice!
Well done Wingy!

Re: My Blue C90 on Ebay
Very true Newt, but it's a hobby and keeps me out of trouble... well almost
Millie is in daily use and the C110 is well underway, oh and then there is the Innova, a little seat foam adjustment and that will be good for French trips next year.

Jehova = a LOT of seat foam adjustment!
Speaking of which, I'm looking at turning my cub seat into an armchair for my next exploits!

Re: My Blue C90 on Ebay
By luck rather than judgement, Millie has the most comfortable seat ever.
The seat was a wreck when I got it, cover shredded, chunks out of the foam etc. So I built up the foam again by using the foam of a camping bed roll mat glued in layers, then a final layer over the top.
I then bought one of these covers off ebay:

They are excellent quality & fit but also very non-slip, so you don't slide foward and end up sitting on your tabs everytime you brake

Re: My Blue C90 on Ebay
As Newt suggested, the Innova seat is very uncomfortable, one or two at Rhayader had fitted a 'gel pack' under the cover and they claim it made a big difference! I guess this same technique would inprove the Cub seat too!
Maybe not to the same degree as Newts armchair though!......... This I've got to see
