Tis The Season... For Bikes.
Well... I finally found a little Honda CT70! It was a high school auto shop class project and completely restored from the ground up. The teacher bought 6 bikes in total (some complete, some basket cases) along with numerous rubbermaid containers full of parts to use as learning projects for his grade 11 and 12 students.
Mine was the last bike of the 6 that were built, so it has the most new parts on it, as the best used parts were mostly used up on the previous 5 bikes. The motor was long gone, so they retrofitted the bike with a new 125cc Lifan (Honda knock-off) engine. It is fully manual and has 4 gears.
I'm trying to take it easy on it, as the engine still isn't broke in yet, but it has been a blast to ride so far!
I think the Duster is a bit jealous!! LOL
