Sadly I am going to sell my brilliant C90. Many of you will know the bike, the one with theTartan Panniers and Brian the Snail on the back. This one;

What can I say about it. It was restored by me 6 years ago (2013) and was in blooming good condition before restoration, having only covered 8000 miles from new. The paintwork was done professionally.
It's now done 16,208 miles, is currently MOT'D until October has two new tyres fitted just before lockdown and new from brake shoes (EBC) the Panniers and the top box are included, but Brian is not. Thus little bike could really take you anywhere, it took me to Norfolk the other year, two days each way from where I live in south Devon. This genuinely is in excellent condition, sadly I am not and so long as this virus goes on I won't be going anywhere because of my health condition. I would much rather I went to someone on here who'd appreciate it for what it is, a genuine, sound C90 in really good condition. Not test rides or visitors to see it but as many photos or video as I can if that helps.
PM me for contact details.
Brian

What I should have said is, if anyone is interested, I am happy to consider an offer. It's a shame it's just say there while I'm very limited in my ability to get out and about. Maybe a moderator could edit the title ?

Cheers
Brian

The panniers came from ebay,they are actually British made "Highway" panniers from the '70s or '80s. They were new old stock found in the attic of an old motorbike shop that the chap who found them (his company were demolishing the shop) was selling on. I've never seen another pair.
The snail is "Brian the Snail" from a British kids animation called Magic Roundabout. It was bought for me by my wife years ago. They are pretty rare as well these days.
Ebay is your best bet

Thanks brain
Good luck selling the bike
It looks amazing,I hope you won't regret it
By the way in Israel there are only handful
Of Cubs,most of them from 1993 till
1996 the years that Honda importer them.
Then later cane the Innova and 125, but also in Small Numbers, the Israelis like the automatic scooters, more than averythin
And in hugs numbers,stupids
Thanks Shai

This C90 is no longer for sale. I've managed to sell one of my other bikes and have replaced that with a Sunday scratcher for far less than I thought I'd be spending, so I'm going to keep it. I think I'm doing the right thing. ;)
