Borgweiser Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 So spotted this sweet pile o rust late night trademe surfin brought for sweet fuck all,last thing I need, another incomplete bike project.. cheers to lownslow for another distraction.. Arriving home, check out mean rear sprocket and fail rear rack and seat combo Super rusty tank, fixable just- but under fake norton badges were original winged Honda badges- score Stripped, tank just sitting for looks, ordered new battery box covers and front guard from ebay, from chassis # turns out its a 1963-65 Honda CD90 known as SS90 in some markets, first of the OHC motors and the last with the classic small tank frame, joy will fit modern CDI lifan or similar 125 and poss 15" wheels, drop bars and single seat. Rear guard has been ground off as someone shortened it in an attempt to make a dirt bike out of it and welded the remaining lower part half way up the frame.. Will have to refabricate a rear guard or modify a C50 tail to suit- or leave it cut dunno yet will see after sandblasting.. How it should look ; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
